This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at DCU chapter.

Paris Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2024 kicked off on Monday, Sep. 25, 2023, and ended on Tuesday, Oct. 3, 2023. 

France’s fashionable capital city showcased spectacular collections from major fashion houses; such as Chanel, Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, Valentino, and Vivienne Westwood. Throughout the magnificent event, fashion lovers took to social media to praise their favourite looks worn by celebrities namely Zendaya, Kylie Jenner, Pamela Anderson, and Jennie Kim. The first bit of celebrity action happened during the Christian Dior show on Tuesday, Sep. 26, with the likes of Jenna Ortega, Alexa Chung, and Anya Taylor-Joy being present. The final major celebrity fashion appearance occurred before the Miu Miu show on Tuesday, Oct. 3, as Emma Chamberlain and Mia Goth, posed for the paparazzi. In honour of celebrating the fashion world, we have the rundown on our favourite celebrity looks from the Spring/Summer 2024 Paris Fashion Week.

Favourite looks from Christian Dior (September 26th):

Jenna Ortega, Alexa Chung, and Anya Taylor-Joy were the first set of celebrities to showcase their fashionable looks. The Wednesday star, Jenna Ortega, wore a classy, but edgy-inspired outfit. She seems to be gradually finding her own personal style, outside of her more gothic-style outfits inspired by her infamous Netflix role.

The former Next in Fashion co-host,  Alexa Chung, went for a feminine soft grunge two-piece, which gave her an elegant twist on the popular mesh trend.

The beloved Netflix actress, Anya Taylor-Joy, is giving a ‘cool girl’ guide on how to make a leather outfit look effortlessly chic.

Favourite looks from Balmain (September 27): 

The celebrity looks from the Balmain show displayed a lot of dark-coloured innovative outfits. 

The Migos star, Quavo, made an appearance wearing flared trousers, which is a current trend among male celebrities.

Kim Cattrall brought out her inner Samantha, as she wore a sexy Croc leather blazer two-piece.

Favourite looks from Schiaparelli (September 28): 

Two celebrity looks stood out at the Schiaparelli show, and that includes Kylie Jenner’s ‘Old Hollywood-esque gown and Rosalia’s cropped blazer and leggings duo. Although both looks differ greatly from one another, it shows how universal the fashion house truly is!

Favourite looks from Vivienne Westwood (September 30): 

The former Playboy model, Pamela Anderson, broke the internet when she decided to not wear any makeup for Paris Fashion Week. Not only was she praised on social media for her decision to go makeup-free, but she was also admired for her extravagant attire for the Vivienne Westwood fashion show.

Canadian model, Coco Rocha, wore a funky red tartan outfit, which displayed the former famous designer’s infamous print on the fashion world perfectly.

Favourite looks from Alexander McQueen (September 30): 

Alexander McQueen’s Paris fashion show was the talk of the city, as this was Sarah Burton’s last show for the iconic fashion house. To mark this special event, Cate Blanchett and Elle Fanning both wore pieces that had a dark-feminine-inspired flare to them. Both actresses looked stunning in their innovative, edgy attires.

Favourite looks from Valentino (October 1):

The celebrity looks from the Valentino show were our personal favourite. It was difficult to narrow down which looks were the best, but Florence Pugh, Andrew Garfield, and Penn Bagley all stood out to us. Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield expressed how the pink Barbie trend is not going anywhere anytime soon!

Penn Bagley, on the other hand, opted for a more cool and modern interpretation of businesswear, which was both classy and innovative.

Favourite looks from Louis Vuitton (October 2): 

There would not be a ‘favourite celebrity looks list’ without Zendaya being a part of it. Social media went crazy for Zendaya’s Louis Vuitton look, styled by Law Roach. This look alone proves how Zendaya and Law Roach are the dream team!

Bridgerton actress, Phoebe Dynevor, wore a stylish dress and boots combo, which is the perfect night-out outfit!

Favourite looks from Chanel (October 3): 

The Blackpink K-pop star, Jennie Kim, also caused mayhem over social media, as her cute, girly look was admired by many fashion lovers.

Usher stepped up his fashion game, as he wore a traditional Chanel-inspired blazer with pearl accessories, which the luxury fashion house is known for.

You cannot have a Chanel fashion show without Chanel’s infamous brand ambassador, Penelope Cruz, making an appearance. The Spanish actress wore a white Chanel skirt co-ord, which matched the brand’s fashion show beautifully.

Favourite looks from Miu Miu (October 3):

Miu Miu has recently become popular among younger celebrities and is quickly creating a name for itself. Beloved social media star, Emma Chamberlain, wore a preppy ‘cool girl’ number, while Pearl actress, Mia Goth, opted for a more classic monochromatic approach.
