The fourth and last day of Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week left us jaw-dropped.
Haute Couture Week has concluded – this Thursday marked the final runways of the Spring/Summer 2024 season. Peet Dullaert showcased neutral tones, Fendi presented embroideries and neutral hues, and Maison Margiela concluded the day.
Titled “Couture Unfolds,” Peet Dullaert’s Spring/Summer 2024 couture collection delves into exploring human silhouettes. “It’s an admiration for the human body, paying homage to its significant shape that breathes movement and transcendent flow. This is symbolic of the process of fluid shape creation, which has been a guiding architect,” the designer explained.

Neutral and metallic tones dominated Fendi’s Spring/Summer 2024 couture collection. Embroideries and various embellishments adorned tailleurs, tops, dresses, skirts, and pants. Accessories such as bags and sunglasses were highlights in their own right – the iconic Baguette purse featured iterations by Silvia Venturini Fendi, and eyewear by Delfina Delettrez Fendi.
“I was thinking about Karl Lagerfeld’s futurism with Fendi. In the collection, there is a humanism at the heart of this future,” said Kim Jones, the creative director of Fendi’s couture and womenswear.

Maison Margiela was the last brand to grace the runway this Haute Couture season, and it was worth the wait. Most looks from Maison Margiela’s Spring/Summer 2024 couture collection featured a tight corset.
This collection drew inspiration from Brassai’s iconic 1920s and ’30s portraits, capturing the enigmatic essence of Parisian nightlife. The fashion show tonight could be described by words such as clothing made from blanket fabric, exaggerated padded hips, erotically sheer lace dresses, tulle, fetish elements, transparency, masks, exposed breasts, hip pads, latex, sky-high stilettos, and patchwork bags.
