Men’s Fashion Week is returning to Paris on Tuesday with extra excitement as famous designer Jonathan Anderson prepares to show his first collection for Dior. At the same time, Saint Laurent is also rejoining the official fashion week schedule.
The spring-summer 2026 season comes during a busy time for fashion houses. While Milan has reduced its programme and London cancelled its men’s fashion week, Paris is hosting a full, lively event.
Around 70 brands will take part in the event, which includes 30 presentations and 40 runway shows from June 24 to 29.
The most awaited show is Dior Homme on Friday. It will be the first men’s collection designed by Anderson since he joined Dior in early June. He replaces Maria Grazia Chiuri. Uniquely, Anderson will now lead Dior’s men’s, women’s, and haute couture lines — something no one has done since Christian Dior himself.
Anderson, 40, is well known for turning Spanish fashion house Loewe into a global success. However, Loewe won’t take part in this season’s fashion week as it prepares for new designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez.
Another key moment will be Julian Klausner’s first menswear show for Dries Van Noten on Wednesday. Klausner took over after Dries Van Noten retired last year.
Saint Laurent is also making a comeback after last participating in January 2023. Its new collection will be revealed Tuesday, ahead of Pharrell Williams’ latest show for Louis Vuitton.
Other famous names like Hermes, Kenzo, Issey Miyake, Rick Owens, and Jacquemus will also feature, while Indian label Kartik Research will make its Paris debut.
Haute Couture Week will follow from July 7 to 10.
