Summary
As we close out a truly historic Paris Fashion Week, our editors are sharing their last impressions from the runway: from their show highlights to the pieces they want to personally add to their wardrobes.
In today’s fourth and final Shark Week episode, Chloe, Chioma, and Nicole are joined by Claire Thomson-Jonville, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue France, for a conversation recorded straight from the Vogue Paris offices early Sunday morning.
They dive into everything from the unforgettable show invites—like Pierpaolo’s heartbeat cassette for Balenciaga—to the theme that tied the week together: “movement.” They also reflect on what defines a successful designer debut, with Chloe offering a memorable insight: a great designer “understands the history of the house without being overwhelmed by it.” Plus, the group looks ahead to what’s next, sharing their anticipation for Matthieu Blazy’s debut at Chanel and their excitement over Ayo Edebiri being named the brand’s newest creative ambassador.
At the top of the episode, Chioma and Nicole share their immediate reactions to the Balenciaga show, recorded right from their car ride home—including a behind-the-scenes moment of spotting none other than Meghan Markle. Finally, Chloe and Chioma share their first impressions of the Celine show, recorded en route to Valentino, where scarves and skinny jeans ruled the runway.

Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.
