As Paris Fashion Week draws to a close, we pause to look back on a week that proved once again why this city remains the centre of it all. For Premier, it was a week defined by landmark shows, standout castings, and the talent who brought this season's collections to life.

This season, our models walked for the names that set the tone for what's next: Louis Vuitton, Saint Laurent, Wales Bonner, Egon Lab, AMI, Amiri, Jacquemus, Craig Green, and more. Each show was a testament to the evolution of fashion's biggest stage.

From monumental heritage houses to designers reshaping the conversation, our models were there at every turn.

The moments that defined the week? Louis Vuitton's precision tailoring and reworked classics capturing modern Parisian edge. Saint Laurent owning the night with sharp lines and sculpted draping. Wales Bonner marking her 10th anniversary with a collection rooted in youth, identity, and cultural craft - a milestone moment for one of fashion’s most thoughtful voices. Egonlab pushing conversations forward with looks inspired by subculture and rebellion. AMI and Amiri bringing laid-back polish that felt effortless. Jacquemus staging another masterclass in modern romance - sunlit, minimal, unmistakably his. Craig Green's architectural shapes closing the week with pure statement dressing.

But Paris isn't just about the runway moment - it's about capturing the collections away from the show lights. This season, our shoots showcased runway looks in their purest form, removed from the theater of the catwalk. The same pieces that commanded attention under dramatic lighting now revealed their true craftsmanship in natural settings.

These intimate captures tell a different story than the runway shots. Away from the soundtracks and choreographed walks, the collections speak for themselves. Across rooftops, riverbanks, and hotel lobbies, photographers captured the season's standout pieces in a new light - the way fabrics move naturally, how tailoring holds its shape, the details that can only be appreciated up close. It's these off-runway frames that reveal what makes each collection truly special.

Behind it all: early call times, fast turnarounds, calm focus, and a team working in perfect sync. Our models moved from castings to fittings to final calls without missing a beat, carrying every look exactly as it was meant to be seen - whether under show lights or walking out into the Paris night.

Paris always leads. Premier always shows up. Until next season.
