Paris Fashion Week Men’s Fall/Winter 2024 painted the City of Light in a kaleidoscope of contrasting hues, where whispers of understated luxury mingled with bold shouts of avant-garde expression. It was a week that traversed the menswear landscape, from the sun-drenched plains of Pharrell Williams’ American West at Louis Vuitton to the intimate salons of Rick Owens’ Parisian residence.
Chitose Abe, the brains behind Sacai, transformed the catwalk into a captivating style battlefield. Her signature blend of tradition and avant-garde was rooted in pieces imbued with a dark, utilitarian edge, reminiscent of ancient warriors reimagined for the modern metropolis. Sky-high crew sleeves, exuding the spirit of Japanese samurai armor, were the focal point of the collection, with every fold and curve speaking volumes about Abe’s innovative reinterpretation of historic silhouettes.
At one end of the spectrum, Hermès and AMI serenaded the audience with a harmonious chorus of understated luxury. The Hermès collection was a masterclass in muted tones and classic sophistication, with long leather coats and sumptuous knits whispering stories of refined elegance. AMI echoed this sentiment with impeccable tailored suits and trench coats in rich, earthy tones, with each piece a testament to timeless Parisian chic.
But where some whispered, Balmain roared. Olivier Rousteing The bold return to menswear was a symphony of bold colors and flamboyant reinterpretations of classic silhouettes. Sequined blazers glittered under the spotlight, while oversized fur hats and chunky jewelry added a touch of opulent theatricality. The show culminated in a glorious finale, with the legendary Naomi Campbell gracing the catwalk in a crystal-encrusted ensemble that left no doubt about Balmain’s message: luxury can be unapologetically loud.
Rick Owens, once the dark prince of fashion, painted the town red (or rather black) with a collection that mixed gothic elements with a touch of the wonderfully bizarre. Oversized rubber boots, described by Owens himself as ‘extremely proportioned’ added a touch of the surreal to proceedings, while deconstructed tailoring and dramatic draping hinted at a darkly romantic undercurrent.
In its entirety, Paris Fashion Week Men’s Fall/Winter 2024 embodied the dual character of luxury menswear, moving gracefully between quietly sophisticated and unapologetically extravagant.
