After the creative-director shake-up that dominated Paris Fashion Week FW2026/27 last March, the Paris Fashion Week SS27-RTW season lands with fewer first collections and a different kind of pressure. The new names at Dior, Chanel, Balenciaga, Loewe, Celine and Tom Ford are no longer introducing themselves; this season, the question is how those new visions will evolve.
Running from September 28 to October 6, Paris Fashion Week SS27-RTW will present 68 runway shows and 33 presentations on the official calendar. Only two major creative debuts remain this season: Drew Henry at Courrèges and Kai Nesselrath at Carven, while Valentino, Maison Margiela, Sacai, Casablanca, Christopher Esber, and Ester Manas return to Paris after sitting out the previous season or showing elsewhere.
