Louis Vuitton womenswear designer Nicolas Ghesquiere presented his spring/summer 2026 collection in a southern wing of the Louvre Museum.
The show featured models wearing flat shoes and soft, comfortable clothing like silky trousers, knit bermudas, and loose coats. Ghesquiere aimed to convey a feeling of home and serenity.
The setting, which included Art Deco chairs and 19th-century sculptures, was previously the summer apartments of Anne of Austria. Notable front row guests included K-pop stars Lisa and Felix, and actors Zendaya and Emma Stone.
Ghesquiere has been designing for Louis Vuitton since 2013 and remains a key figure amid changes in the fashion industry, with Paris Fashion Week showcasing new collections from other famous brands until October 7.
