Fashion Week Fatigue: The Love-Hate List

While we adore the magic of haute couture, we sometimes find ourselves questioning the repetitive spectacle of fashion weeks. We love fashion and the magic it brings, so here’s our take:

 

1. NO:

Haute Couture in January? Too cold to dress impeccably without freezing.

2. NO:

Chanel used to be the epitome of cool. What happened?

3. NO:

The overpowering presence of mega-brands can stifle creativity.

4. NO:

It never fails—rain seems as much a fixture of Couture Week as the runways.

5. NO:

Unboxing videos? So last season. Why buy what others flaunt for free? We crave the understated luxury of ‘less is more.’

 

 

But it’s not all doom and gloom—there’s still some magic to be found:

1. YES:

The nightlife during Fashion Week is unparalleled—if you’re on the guest list.

2. YES:

January calls for champagne, but moderation is key.

3. YES:

Transform a petite Parisian hotel room into your office—embrace the charm of working from a cozy couch or bed.

4. YES:

People-watching around the Louvre during showtimes is a runway show in itself.

5. YES:

The floral arrangements at fashion presentations are as stunning as the garments—take a moment to be inspired.

 

Fashion may be cyclical, but our affection for its quirks remains timeless.
