Dior to skip next Paris couture July season, as Maison Margiela and Iris van Herpen return
The house of Dior will sit out the next Paris couture catwalk season in July, even as Maison Margiela and Iris van Herpen return to the runways in the French capital, according to a provisional calendar released Monday. See catwalk The decision by Dior is not unexpected, since the house only announced the appointment of new creative director Jonathan Anderson for menswear, womenswear, and haute couture earlier on Monday. Anderson will, however, make his runway debut for Dior this month, with a menswear runway show on the afternoon of June 27. Balenciaga will present the final collection by its departing creative director, Demna of Georgia, in July. His successor, Pierpaolo Piccioli, will stage his first show for Balenciaga during the Paris women's ready-to-wear season this fall. The next couture season will take place from Monday, July 7, to Thursday, July 10. It will kick off with a show by one of Paris' most legendary houses, Schiaparelli, and climax with a show by Rami Al Ali, a critically admired Syrian-born couturier. Known for his fresh take on classical couture gowns, Al Ali has dressed many stars and celebrities, including Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Amal Clooney, Helen Mirren, Naomi Campbell, and Sharon Stone. All told, there are 25 couturiers listed on the haute couture calendar, including Chanel and Giorgio Armani, who will both stage two shows apiece. This will mark the last show staged by Chanel where no designer will take a bow, since the collection, like the last five presented by Chanel, will be designed by an in-house studio team. Chanel's new creative director, Matthieu Blazy, will make his debut in October during the next women's ready-to-wear season in Paris. See catwalk Though the season's most keenly anticipated debut will be Glenn Martens, who succeeds John Galliano at Maison Margiela—a tricky act to follow, seeing as the UK designer's January 2024 show under a bridge on the Seine was the single best couture show in Paris this decade. The season will also welcome back French couturier Adeline André and two guest houses, ArdAzAei and Robert Wun, according to a new calendar released by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode, French fashion's governing body. Separately, the Fédération noted that two Paris fashion houses will stage runway shows on the eve of couture: Celine at 2:30 p.m. and Patou at 5 p.m. on Sunday, July 6. Despite the flurry of no-shows, studio-designed collections, and a clientele of fewer than 5,000 women, Paris haute couture remains the supreme example of creativity in fashion—the great laboratory de la mode. A busy week where the boulevards of the City of Light will be crammed with limousines ferrying the richest women in the world to the most reserved fashion shows on the planet.

Miley Cyrus just made the LBD feel rock 'n' roll again
When it comes to infusing a dose of cool-girl attitude into high fashion, always delivers. The pop icon recently turned heads at the release party for her new album Something Beautiful, where she brought vintage glamour, rock star flair, and effortless confidenceall wrapped in one deceptively simple outfit. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Opting for quiet sophistication, Miley chose a sleeveless black mini dress by MM6, the avant-garde diffusion line from Maison Margiela. With its clean cut, high neckline, and flattering fit, the dress offered a nod to '60s mod minimalism but with a sultry edge that only Miley can pull off. Think less red carpet drama, more backstage elegance. Rather than reach for towering heels, Miley anchored the look with Maison Margiela's iconic Tabi ballerina flats. The split-toe design lent just enough quirk to the ensemble while still keeping things understated, perfect for an intimate album launch hosted by TikTok at LA's legendary Chateau Marmont. Hair and makeup? Pure Miley. Her signature beachy waves were styled to perfection - loose, voluminous, and tousled with just a hint of rock 'n' roll rebellion. A bronzed glow highlighted her features, while smoky eyeliner and soft nude lips completed the look without overpowering it. In true anti-bling fashion, Miley skipped the obvious statement jewellery. Instead, she let her tattoos shine through, punctuating the minimalist dress with personal meaning and edge. A couple of delicate anklets were her only visible accessories. The mood of the event - vintage furniture, moody lighting, and warm, nostalgic tones - mirrored her outfit's vibe: personal, polished, and just a bit rebellious. Miley didn't just attend the party. She was the vibe.

Tanja Ruhnke exits Valentino after six weeks as communication director
Just weeks after stepping into her new role as communication director for Italian luxury house Valentino, Tanja Ruhnke has chosen to step down for personal reasons. Ruhnke, who officially joined Valentino on April 7, exited the role just six weeks later, catching the company by surprise. The German executive had recently returned to the Roman fashion house, where she previously worked in 2019. The brand, which is owned by the investment company Mayhoola, a fund of the Qatari royal family, and 30% by Kering, confirmed her departure—revealed by the American publication WWD—although without giving any further details. Of German origin, Tanja Ruhnke lived for a long time in New York, where she graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology. Since 2020, she has worked as marketing director at Maison Margiela and has extensive experience in the luxury world, where she has become known for her communication skills. She began as a consultant for various fashion brands before joining Helmut Lang to lead communications. In 2005, she moved to Paris to join communications agency KCD, where she rose to vice president. In 2012, she returned to New York to become vice president of global branding and communication at Alexander Wang. In 2017, she moved to Birkenstock, then joined production agency North Six before returning to Valentino as vice president of communications for North America. A year later, she joined Maison Margiela, owned by Italian fashion group OTB.
