Paris
CNN
 — 

Against the backdrop of a scorching heatwave in Europe that has not spared the French capital, the menswear edition of Paris Fashion Week wrapped up on Sunday.

The sweltering conditions were perhaps an incidental metaphor for the pressure the industry is feeling as the global luxury industry experiences a troubling slowdown. To this end, the Spring-Summer 2026 collections felt restrained. In a climate of uncertainty, designers proposed modular, adaptable wardrobes attuned to a global consumer, and the attention shifted away from slogans and theatrics toward refined construction and nuance, with block colors, versatile garments and an eye towards utility. That said, when it came to show production, the bar remained high, with runways once again staged at major Parisian landmarks, attended by a bevy of A-List guests.

The week’s most anticipated event took place at the famed Hôtel des Invalides, where Dior presented its first show by Jonathan Anderson, the founder of London label J.W. Anderson, who stepped down from Loewe after transforming the luxury brand over the past 11 years. Pop royalty and industry titans, including Rihanna, Sabrina Carpenter, Donatella Versace and Robert Pattinson, all sat front row for his highly anticipated debut, which was set in a room mimicking interiors of Berlin’s Gemäldegalerie museum featuring 18th-century artworks.

Off the heels of Dior Men’s era of Kim Jones, who offered elegant twists on menswear in theatrical runway shows, Anderson ushered in a playful, everyday sense of luxury, delving into the house’s heritage by reintroducing classic silhouettes morphed in new ways. The Bar jacket, cinched at the waist and introduced in the 1950s, was presented oversized — with a skirt-suit version simultaneously showcased by Carpenter in the front row — while cargo pants featured trailing panels that echoed the 1949 Dior Delft ball gown. Flowers, central to Christian Dior and his garden in Granville, featured as minute embroideries and a handbag that replicated a cover of the 1857 book “Les Fleurs du Mal” by French poet Charles Baudelaire.

At another Parisian cultural landmark, in front of the Centre Pompidou, Pharrell Williams presented a majestic show for Louis Vuitton with Beyoncé and Jay-Z arriving last before the sunset event. But the collection proved more understated than its presentation, despite its focus on India’s sartorial influence on contemporary fashion. The set, by architect Bijoy Jain of Studio Mumbai, was a life-sized take on the ancient Indian board game of Snakes and Ladders. Tailoring came with an air of effortless dandyism, with indigo overcoats and mustard pleated shorts before moving toward hiking chic, with windbreakers and climbing boots complete with bejeweled socks. The eccentric show felt spun off from a Wes Anderson set, and that was intentional — with jacket motifs paying homage to the Louis Vuitton trunks featured in Anderson’s 2007 train-journey film “The Darjeeling Limited,” set in India.

Rather than a museum setting, the British-born designer Grace Wales Bonner celebrated the 10th anniversary of her eponymous label by going back to school. Titled “Jewel,” the collection took the stage at the prestigious Lycée Henri-IV secondary school in the city’s Latin Quarter and explored the idea of inheritance.

The garments’ layered, preppy lines drew on British know-how through collaborations with Savile Row tailors Anderson & Sheppard and milliner Stephen Jones for berets. Staying true to her signature fusion of genres, Bonner also partnered with streetwear brand Y-3. In addition to sporty, paper-thin knits and sheer bejeweled shirting, Bonner paired flared silhouettes with patent opera pumps, and elevated tailcoats with baobab brooches and pops of colors on lapels and collars.

Block colors and bold messages

At several shows, bright colors snuck onto the runway, sometimes paired with equally subversive messaging, and, at other times, a playful new take on tradition.

For his second presentation in Paris, American designer Willy Chavarria opened with a bold performance — in collaboration with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) — directly referencing the Trump administration’s contested deportations of Venezuelan migrants to prisons in El Salvador. The sequence included 35 men in white t-shirts kneeling on the runway floor, appearing to echo images taken inside the Cecot megaprison; it was a declaration against “people being profiled and persecuted with no due process,” per the show notes.

From this emotional beginning, Chavarria, who often weaves Latino sartorial codes into direct political statements and messages of inclusion, revisited retro inspirations: zoot suits and film noir-inspired silhouettes in baby pink, lavender and brass satin dress coats, complete with a collaboration with classic shoemaker Charles Jourdan.

At Saint Laurent, creative director Anthony Vaccarello’s inspiration came from the queer communities of 1970s Fire Island in New York. That summer vibrancy translated into clothing through splashes of mustard, lime, and tangerine hues, with strong suiting softened by silk shirts topped by ton-sur-ton skinny ties or airy chiffon blouses with pussy bows.

And, at Dries Van Noten, newly appointed creative director Julian Klausner unveiled his first menswear collection for the Belgian brand. Titled “Just a Perfect Day,” the modular wardrobe shifted and loosened up over the course of an imagined night out, playing with both the hybridity of formal and casual as well as masculine and feminine. The collection featured sarongs layered over trousers, silk waistcoats paired with boxing shorts, and traditional cummerbunds — in mint or hot pink — added to more casual silhouettes.

On the last day of menswear fashion week, Jacquemus, led by Simon Porte Jacquemus, hosted its closing duties. The label has become known for translating Provençal traditions into exuberant womenswear, menswear, and viral accessories.

The grand show at Versailles drew a sparkling front row including actors Matthew McConaughey, Gillian Anderson and Laura Harrier. Known for weaving his own biography into his work, Jacquemus once again looked to his South of France childhood, but this time bringing his rural upbringing to the court of the king, at the palace’s maze-like Orangery.

The collection featured a milky palette of white, eggshell and soft pinks, constructed as ruffled aprons and corseted blouses. Tablecloth-inspired embroideries, and playful tassels referenced traditional Southern France — as did trompe-l’œil leather accessories shaped like garlic, strawberries, and leeks. Memory and myth intertwined in the show, from Marcel Pagnol films to the designer’s great-grandmother and the English tourists of his childhood, he explained backstage.

He used the French term “endimanché,” or dressing up on Sunday, to describe the crisp, opaline feel of the collection, “almost like a nurse, very minimal… my grandmother was always in white with bijoux, very pure.” Provence, he added, “is always a dream… a very important cliché.”

Kelsea Ballerini is expanding her long-awaited return to Australia. The Grammy-nominated country-pop star has added two new shows to her 2025 Australian tour — extending the run to five headline dates across Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane this December.

The additional performances will take place on Dec. 7 at Sydney’s ICC Theatre and Dec. 11 at Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne. Tickets for all five shows are on sale now via Frontier Touring.

“It has been way too long since I have been down under and I am so excited to be touring Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane this December,” Ballerini said in a statement. “Australia has always had a special place in my heart, and I can’t wait to hear what PATTERNS sounds like with an Aussie accent.”

The tour marks Ballerini’s first visit to Australia in seven years, and follows her major U.S. arena tour supporting her 2024 album PATTERNS. The album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and includes collaborations with Noah Kahan, Jessie Jo Dillon, and Hillary Lindsey. It also earned Ballerini a nomination for CMA Entertainer of the Year — one of her highest career honors to date.

Since first breaking out with her 2015 debut single “Love Me Like You Mean It,” Ballerini has become one of country-pop’s most successful crossover artists, earning seven No. 1 hits at U.S. country radio, including “Miss Me More,” “I Quit Drinking” with LANY, and the CMA-winning duet “Half of My Hometown” with Kenny Chesney.

Joining Ballerini on the 2025 Australian run is Nashville-based singer-songwriter Carter Faith, who recently made her Australian debut at CMC Rocks and has since surpassed 140 million global streams. Adelaide-born rising artist aleksiah will also open all dates, fresh off the breakout success of her track “The Hit.”

The five-date tour kicks off Dec. 6 in Sydney and wraps Dec. 13 in Brisbane. For full ticketing details, visit frontiertouring.com/kelseaballerini.

Rosanna Arquette – the older sister of actors Patricia and David – found fame as the bored housewife to Madonna’s bohemian drifter in 1985’s Desperately Seeking Susan. Elsewhere in your cinematic memory, she helped save Uma Thurman from accidentally overdosing in Pulp Fiction, and had her fishnet stockings ripped off by James Spader in David Cronenberg’s Crash.

But Arquette has been in all sorts of films, opposite all sorts of actors: she co-starred with Joe Pesci and Danny Glover in trip gone wrong comedy Gone Fishin’, Tim Roth and Renée Zellweger in mystery film Liar, and Christina Ricci, Vincent Gallo and Mickey Rourke in Buffalo 66. In the 2000s, she starred in the thriller Diary of a Sex Addict, as the wife of an otherwise happily married chef who has a penchant for – well, the clue is in the title.

A move into directing saw her direct and produce Searching for Debra Winger, a documentary about the American actor who left the industry at the height of her career, which was selected for the Cannes film festival. And in 2011, Arquette teamed up with Jane Fonda for comedy drama Peace, Love, and Misunderstanding. On TV, she has popped up everywhere from Will & Grace to Malcolm in the Middle and Ray Donovan.

Now Arquette has a role in “mind-bending new romantic sci-fi” Futra Days, in which she plays a doctor with a time machine for rent, which sounds oddly familiar … Please get your questions in by 6pm BST Wednesday 2 July, and we’ll print her answers in Film&Music later that month.

The UK’s Chief Rabbi has strongly criticised “the airing of vile Jew-hate at Glastonbury” after a live broadcast of Bob Vylan’s performance at the festival went out on the BBC, during which the band’s singer led the crowd in chants of “death, death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]”.

Writing on X, Sir Ephraim Mirvis wrote: “This is a time of national shame. The airing of vile Jew-hatred at Glastonbury and the BBC’s belated and mishandled response, brings confidence in our national broadcaster’s ability to treat antisemitism seriously to a new low.

“It should trouble all decent people that now, one need only couch their outright incitement to violence and hatred as edgy political commentary, for ordinary people to not only fail to see it for what it is, but also to cheer it, chant it and celebrate it. Toxic Jew-hatred is a threat to our entire society.

In a statement issued on Monday, the BBC said: “The team were dealing with a live situation but with hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen.”

A criminal investigation has now been launched over performances by both Bob Vylan and Irish band Kneecap at Glastonbury on Saturday, Avon and Somerset Police has said.

The force said it had appointed a senior detective to investigate whether comments made by either act amounted to a criminal offence after reviewing footage.

A statement added: “This has been recorded as a public order incident at this time while our enquiries are at an early stage.”

Speaking in Parliament on Monday after the announcement, Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy called the scenes broadcast “appalling and unacceptable”.

Prince Edward received a special title as he performed key tasks assigned by King Charles during his seven-day trip to Canada.

The Prince of Edinburgh visited Prince Edward Island where he was requested by a lady for a hug.

As per CBC, Edward met local resident Barbara Bernard who recalled a sweet interaction with the Prince and shared he was a “good hugger,” a new title for the King’s youngest brother.

She said, “He came over and he was talking and the gesture of his hands went like this.”

Barbara shared that Edward’s gesture represented that he was about to give a hug. “And of course, I said: ‘Is that for me?’”

The woman asked Edward, “Do you want a hug?” She added, “And then he goes ‘ok!’… so, I got to hug him.”

While reacting to the lady’s comments, one fan wrote on X formerly known as Twitter, “How really cute! Nice she got to hug him, he really seems like a warm, charming guy after all so why not.”

Notably, Prince Edward is set to travel to Canada’s capital, Ottawa, on Tuesday to participate in Canada Day celebrations.

Prince Edward is on his first major solo overseas tour since being named Duke of Edinburgh in 2023.
