The first day of Paris Fashion Week spring/summer 2026 has set a tone with one of the most spectacular runway shows yet—the L’Oreal Paris show.

Titled “Liberty. Equality. Sisterhood. Because You’re Worth It,” the event celebrated not only high fashion but also the powerful women shaping the industry. The ambiance was electric as legendary figures and rising stars aligned on the catwalk at the historic Paris City Hall.

Their striking appearances were complemented by fellow fashion icons such as Cara Delevingne and Viola Davis. Each celebrity brought her unique flair to the show, contributing to an empowering ensemble that resonated with the audience.

Kendall Jenner, a seasoned veteran of the Paris catwalk, showcased her remarkable figure in a breathtaking white sheer gown that featured a daring thigh-high split. Heidi Klum did not disappoint either, as she radiated confidence in a plunging black gown that accentuated her silhouette.

Cara Delevingne emerged as a sultry vision in a lace couture creation by renowned designer Georges Chakra. Her presence commanded attention as she strutted down the runway.

Viola Davis, who’s also an ambassador for L’Oreal Paris, made a significant impression in a strapless black and white ensemble. With bold red lips and a chic bob cut, Davis exuded elegance while proving her supermodel status. 

Other noteworthy participants included esteemed actresses Helen Mirren and Jane Fonda, along with television personality Bethenny Frankel and rising star Simone Ashley. Each woman’s individual style contributed to an overall message of celebration and empowerment, making the L’Oreal show a landmark moment just at the start of Paris Fashion Week.

In the lead-up to this grand event, fans were treated to a unique takeover of London’s Covent Garden, highlighting the themes of diversity and confidence. The celebration furthers L’Oreal’s commitment to asserting that beauty comes in all forms, a message echoed by the mesmerizing lineup of powerful women on the Paris runway.
