In Paris these past few days, the fall 2025 shows at couture week took over the City of Light. As luxury fashion houses showcased the finest craftsmanship they can offer, VIP celebrities took in the glorious designs from the front row. And given that couture week is no average fashion week (it is ultra exclusive), stars were sure to bring their sartorial A-game to the presentations—delivering bold, avant-garde looks that were all about the art of the fashion transformation.

The best dressed stars of the week were those who understood that attending couture is a privilege—and that your looks for the week should be a moment. Nobody did this better than Cardi B: The rapper attended several shows in a series of bold, striking looks. Her Schiaparelli outfit, however, was certainly the most-discussed. The star showed up in a pearl-fringed, three-dimensional cape, and carrying a live raven. (The bird has become a recurring motif while teasing her upcoming album, Am I the Drama?).

But Cardi was not the only star to bring the drama (pun intended) to the shows. At Balenciaga, Lorde sported a sheer metallic slip gown; At Chanel, forever-chic filmmaker Sofia Coppola and her two teenage daughters—Romy and Cosima Mars—coordinated in pastel hues. As for one of the most fashion-forward models on the scene this week? Supermodel Alex Consani brought impeccable style as she ran from one show to the next. Her couture wardrobe was filled with casual-cool pieces like slouchy jeans and itty-bitty Alaïa bags.
