In Paris, MAD Honors Paul Poiret, 'the First Art Director in the History of Fashion'
On Tuesday night in Paris, MAD—as Paris's museum of decorative arts is now known—inaugurated 'Paul Poiret: Fashion is a Feast,' the first-ever dedicated exhibition about the couturier best remembered for freeing women from corsets. Poiret learned about couture at the house of Worth, the subject of another exhibition over at the Petit Palais. Once he struck out on his own, he became the original multi-hyphenate couturier. Poiret dabbled in music, painting, acting, and restaurants. He was the first to scout out and support promising talents, initiate collaborations with artist friends like Paul Iribe and Raoul Dufy, and launch a perfume line, which he named after his daughter, Rosine. Inspired by the Ballet Russes, he drew from across the arts for his fashion. Soon, he reached the pinnacle of fame as fashion's first all-powerful creative director and social arbiter. 'With the coming of Paul Poiret, fashion changed completely,' Christian Dior wrote in his autobiography, Christian Dior and I, published in 1957. 'Paris in 1912 was like a harem, with Paul Poiret as the powerful but kindly sultan.' At MAD, some 550 works span his couture creations, accessories, costume jewelry, images of famous clients like Peggy Guggenheim (shot in Poiret by Man Ray), and fine and decorative arts. But it's the dialogue with contemporary high fashion—from Dior himself to present-day—that attests to Poiret's reach.

Aaron Pierre Reportedly Eyed To Be The Next James Bond
Actor Daniel Craig departed the James Bond film franchise with the release of No Time to Die in 2021. Additionally, Amazon MGM Studios acquired full creative control of the brand in 2025. As such, it was only a matter of time before plans went into play for reviving the property, and it looks like Aaron Pierre is reportedly being eyed to play the next James Bond. The James Bond character has been played by numerous different actors over the course of decades, leading to more than two dozen films to have been released with stars that include Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, and more. It's always a big moment when a new Bond actor is being chosen, especially knowing they'll have to walk in the shadow of those who previously played the role. Now, according to insider Daniel Richtman, actor Aaron Pierre is 'being considered' for the role. However, Richtman is unclear whether or not any official meetings have taken place, which means this information should be taken with a grain of salt. Pierre could very well just be one name on a list of many that the studio is considering for the part. However, Aaron Pierre would certainly be a major choice for James Bond, especially with some of his recent gigs. The actor surprised audiences with the release of Rebel Ridge on Netflix and he was also cast as John Stewart for the upcoming Green Lantern TV series Lanterns for HBO. An opportunity to play James Bond isn't that surprising at the rate his popularity has grown. If he were chosen, Pierre would also be the first black actor to play the character. Furthermore, he is an English actor, so he would still fit the bill in that regard. While it would be a big step forward for the franchise, many fans have been eager to see a more diverse take on Bond, especially with many hoping to see Idris Elba take the role. Ultimately, we'll have to see how this situation plays out, especially as this information hasn't been officially confirmed. One thing is for certain, however, and that's that there will be a new actor playing James Bond sooner or later. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional updates as we have them.

Elisabetta Franchi Resort 2026 Collection
'Beauty, femininity, seduction, empowerment, strength, determination, dedication, energy, evolution, future.' Each garment by Elisabetta Franchi was shaped around the meaning of those ten words—which, in the resort 2026 collection, became a manifesto, printed on a T-shirt or embroidered on the pocket of a denim shirt. In the space between each word, the designer continued to write her story with coherence and intent. 'This collection cannot be viewed as a standalone tale, but rather as the latest chapter in an ongoing journey, encapsulating the codes of our DNA. A garment should never define a woman's personality—it is the woman who gives meaning to what she wears,' said Franchi. 'This is a tribute to the conscious, confident woman who stands as the true protagonist of her time.' With a desire to celebrate femininity, the body became the central focus of the narrative: revealed, sculpted, defined, exposed—though not necessarily through body-hugging silhouettes. When drawing from menswear codes, shapes became softer, more fluid, more classic. What made the collection instantly recognizable was the alligator print, featured across trench coats, dresses, shirts, and trousers, and interpreted in suede, gabardine, or satin. New for the season was the color palette, which, for the first time, burst with vivid intensity. Breaking up the linear elegance of cocoa, clay, white, and black were vibrant shades of aloe green, lilac, and sun yellow. From denim inspired by corsetry to intricate spiderweb beading, from body-conscious knitwear to nylon bombers and sharply tailored jackets and trousers, the collection unfolded as a play of attraction between distant aesthetics. The logo appeared as a jewel-like detail on dresses and stiletto heels, but it was the golden bangles—always worn on both wrists—that elevated the image of a woman who isn't concerned about where she's going, but rather with how she gets there.
