Paris Fashion Week 2026: Dates, Highlights and Where to Stay in Paris

Autumn sunset over the Eiffel Tower

From September 28 to October 6, 2026, Paris will host Paris Fashion Week Womenswear, showcasing the Spring/Summer 2027 ready-to-wear collections.

For nine days, fashion houses, designers, journalists, buyers and fashion enthusiasts will gather at venues across the French capital. Unlike a traditional trade show, Paris Fashion Week does not take place in a single location, so choosing a well-located hotel can save valuable time between appointments and events.


Paris Fashion Week 2026: Key Dates

Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Spring/Summer 2027 will take place from Monday, September 28 to Tuesday, October 6, 2026.

The official schedule is still provisional, but several major fashion houses have already been announced:

  • September 29: Christian Dior, Maison Margiela and Saint Laurent;
  • September 30: Courrèges, Balmain, Stella McCartney and Tom Ford;
  • October 1: Chloé, Balenciaga, Rick Owens, Schiaparelli and Isabel Marant;
  • October 2: Loewe, Givenchy, Lanvin and Victoria Beckham;
  • October 3: Celine, Vivienne Westwood, Hermès and Alaïa;
  • October 4: Lacoste, Miu Miu, Valentino, Mugler and Jean Paul Gaultier;
  • October 5: Sacai, Zimmermann and Chanel.

As the schedule may still change, we recommend checking the official Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode calendar before your stay.


Can You Attend Paris Fashion Week Without an Invitation?

Most shows on the official calendar are reserved for invited guests and industry professionals. However, several fashion houses offer digital broadcasts or livestreams of their shows.

There are also events that allow the general public to experience the atmosphere of Paris Fashion Week.


Le Défilé L’Oréal Paris 2026: Open to the Public

On September 28, 2026 at 9 p.m., L’Oréal Paris will hold its traditional fashion show at Place Joffre, in Paris’s 7th arrondissement, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower.

The “Express Your Worth” event is announced as open to everyone, making it one of the most accessible opportunities to experience the excitement of Paris Fashion Week without an invitation to a fashion house show.


SPHERE at the Palais de Tokyo

From September 30 to October 6, 2026, the Palais de Tokyo will also host the SPHERE Paris Fashion Week® Showroom.

Created by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode to support emerging talent, the showroom presents a selection of up-and-coming brands throughout Fashion Week.

The Palais de Tokyo is located close to the Trocadéro and the Seine, just a short distance from the Champs-Élysées.

A Convenient Location Between Appointments

Staying near the Étoile makes it easy to reach several areas closely associated with Paris Fashion Week, including Avenue Montaigne, the Golden Triangle, the Trocadéro, the Palais de Tokyo and the Champs-Élysées.

For professionals with several appointments scheduled on the same day, staying in this area can also reduce travel time and provide greater flexibility between shows, presentations and meetings.
