Overview
Paris Fashion Week Womenswear is the FHCM’s ready-to-wear womenswear calendar, staged in Paris each March and again in late September or early October. It closes the main womenswear month after New York, London and Milan, and brings together major French luxury houses, international brands and independent designers on one citywide schedule.
The week is associated with Paris’s position at the centre of luxury fashion, but its role is also practical: it is where buyers, editors and industry observers see the season’s final major womenswear collections. Heritage maisons and newer labels sit within the same official framework, giving the week both commercial weight and editorial range.
