Meghan Markle Makes Her First Fashion Week Appearance at Balenciaga
Meghan Markle makes a surprise entry at Paris Fashion Week on Saturday October 4th, which makes it her first public outing in Europe since 2022. Markle had been absent for years. She was a regular at New York Fashion Week during her Suits days, attending shows by Tory Burch, Peter Som, Wes Gordon and more. But this was her first time at the French fashion show. The Duchess of Sussex was among the front row guest at the Balenciaga’s Spring/Summer 2026 show.

She arrived in a white monochrome set from Balenciaga. The outfit includes a long-sleeved button down top with loosed straight trousers. Hung across her shoulders was a cape-like drape that flowed all the way down to the ground behind her. With her hair styled in a sleek low bun, she paired the attire with pointed-toe black heels.

Now the Duchess decided to switch things up for the balenciaga dinner. Following the same pattern as the previous outfit, she changed into an all black variation designed by Piccioli. The only difference was that she exchanged the suite set for a sleeveless midi dress. Another cape-like piece was wrapped around her opened shoulder. She accessorized with gold bracelet, diamond stud earrings and same pumps from the earlier look.
She was styled by Jamie Mizrahi, a celebrity stylist who is known for working with the likes of Adele and Jennifer Lawrence. From both outfits, we can see how simple and elegant her appearance was. Like the duchess she was, it was giving royalty. Other guests seated alongside her were Anne Hathaway, Rosie Huntington, Kristin Scott Thomas, all present to see Pierpaolo’s spring 2026 collection.

A source told People she came to support the house’s new creative director, Pierpaolo Piccioli. “Over the years, the Duchess has worn a number of designs by Pierpaolo. They have worked closely together, collaborating on design for key moments on the world stage,” “She has long admired his craftsmanship and modern elegance, and tonight was no different,” the spokesperson said.
They also added, this evening “reflects the culmination of many years of artistry and friendship, reflected in her support for his new creative chapter at Balenciaga.”

She appeared at the ceremony in an archival black Atelier Versace gown from Donatella Versace’s Fall 2015 collection. The dress was described as sheer and constructed from shredded lace with web-like cutout detailing throughout the fabric. It featured a halter neckline, a fitted bodice, and floor-length construction with lace panels and metallic threading integrated across the design. The gown had previously been worn by Heidi Klum at the amfAR Gala in Milan in 2015.
Cyrus styled the look with minimal accessories, including bracelets and a ring, and wore her hair blonde and straight with full bangs. The hairstyle referenced her “Hannah Montana” era, which multiple outlets noted in relation to the visual styling for the ceremony. Her makeup included a smoky eye and neutral lip tones, consistent across reported descriptions.

The ceremony was attended by her mother Tish Cyrus, sister Brandi Cyrus, and fiancé Maxx Morando, Donatella Versace and Anya Taylor-Joy were also present, both delivering speeches in her honour during the event.

During her acceptance speech, Cyrus became emotional while thanking her family and close circle of support. She referenced her connection to Los Angeles and Hollywood Boulevard and reflected on her career journey leading to the moment of recognition.

The Walk of Fame star placed her among the latest artists formally recognised by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, marking her contribution to recorded music and entertainment over the course of her career.
Zendaya attended the Louis Vuitton Resort 2027 show in New York, where Nicolas Ghesquière presented his latest cruise collection for the house. She appeared among the front-row guests, wearing a silver long-sleeved mini dress from the brand.
The look featured an asymmetrical neckline with one shoulder placed slightly higher than the other, and a satin finish with soft folds across the fabric. She paired it with matching pointy Louis Vuitton pumps.

Her hair was styled in a short pixie cut with a side part, while the makeup was soft with brows as the defining feature, finished with glossy lips. She accessorized with white gold and pavé diamond earrings from Tiffany & Co.

After the show, Zendaya had a change of outfit for the afterparty. Styled by her longtime stylist Law Roach, the look was taken from the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2027 runway, where it appeared as look 14 just minutes before she wore it.
The outfit consisted of a black cropped moto jacket with striped detailing coiling across the fabric, worn with shiny yellow shorts, featuring a white base peeking out at the waist, and a two-tone belt. She completed the look with the same heels from earlier and large silver earrings.

Similar dress styles have been seen on other celebrities, including Hailey Bieber and Charli XCX during Saint Laurent Spring 2026 show at Paris Fashion Week.
Other guests at the Louis Vuitton show included Emily Blunt, Emma Stone, Anne Hathaway, and Chase Infiniti.
Even with Cannes Film Festival organizers tightening red carpet rules around nudity and revealing dressing this year, celebrities have continued to challenge the updated dress code. Bella Hadid joined that conversation during the premiere of La Bataille De Gaulle: L’Âge De Fer, arriving in a custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown designed by Daniel Roseberry that combined sheer lace detailing with a sculpted silhouette.

The ivory gown was constructed with Schiaparelli’s signature trompe l’oeil lace embroidery and featured a deep plunging neckline that extended toward the waist through a sharply cut central opening. A black embellishment positioned across the torso connected the front of the dress and referenced the brooch detail worn by Jane Birkin during her 1969 appearance, which served as inspiration for the design. Roseberry reworked the archival reference into a more sculpted version tailored specifically for Hadid.
The fitted gown followed a body-contouring shape before opening into a tiered mermaid-style train at the hem. The sleeves extended fully to the wrists with slight flare detailing at the cuffs, while the back incorporated corset-style lacing.
According to details released by Schiaparelli, the gown required 22,160 hours of embroidery work and involved 130 artisans. The couture house also confirmed that the look was custom made for the model by Daniel Roseberry.
Hadid paired the gown with Chopard diamond jewelry, including drop earrings and a large geometric ring. Her hair was styled into an updo allowing the neckline and structure of the gown to remain the focus. The look was styled by Mimi Cuttrell, who has overseen several of Hadid’s appearances throughout the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.

Earlier in the day, Hadid wore a pale blue silk Louis Vuitton minidress from Marc Jacobs’ Spring 2003 collection, paired with a sandy beige canvas shoulder bag and tortoiseshell Gucci sunglasses.
