September 2026 Fashion Week: dates and season
Women’s ready-to-wear Fashion Week takes place from 28 September to 6 October 2026 and presents the spring/summer 2027 collections. For around ten days, shows, presentations and events follow one another across the city. The official schedule is published by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode as the event approaches: it is the reference for times and venues.
Invitation-only shows, a city in celebration
Official shows are reserved for professionals and invited guests. But Fashion Week extends well beyond the catwalks: around show venues, street style, photographers and public presentations create an atmosphere you can experience without an invitation. For buyers, journalists and industry professionals, it is a week of intense appointments across Paris.
Why stay in the 9th arrondissement?
During Fashion Week, a central location saves valuable time. Around the Opéra and the department stores, the 9th arrondissement is in the heart of Paris with excellent metro connections: reach show venues on both the Right and Left Banks quickly, then return to recharge in a lively yet residential neighbourhood. A real advantage during such a busy week.
