From Rihanna to Dua Lipa: See every star on the front row at Paris Couture Week

The autumn/winter 2025 men’s shows weren’t even over when physical invitations for the spring/summer 2026 edition of Paris Haute Couture Week began to arrive – and with good reason. Couture is where fashion’s most imaginative ideas are aired, and this season, in particular, will be among the most news-making on record. Valentino Garavani’s namesake house will show for the first time since the founder’s passing last week, while Matthieu Blazy and Jonathan Anderson will present their inaugural Haute Couture proposals for Chanel and Christian Dior following their womenswear debuts during the merry-go-round that was Super September.

If that period of upheaval–which saw an unprecedented 15 newly-appointed designers premiere across the industry–proved anything, it’s that clothes alone do not build a brand. An identifiable cut, or a would-be It-bag, helps, of course, but just as much pivots on who’s on the guest list, and how much–and what kind of–attention they’re capable of attracting. Which is why, even with the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode’s notoriously strict quotas keeping the number of shows on schedule lean, this week’s front rows will be anything but. Scroll on to see all the celebrities photographed at the spring/summer 2026 edition of Paris Haute Couture Week.
