Kevin Germanier Delivers Maximalist Spectacle for His Fall 2026 Couture Collection
Kevin Germanier brought his signature maximalist sensibility to the couture runway with a collection built on texture, color, and sheer volume. The show balanced two distinct energies: sculptural, high-drama silhouettes and more fluid, body-conscious fringe looks, all executed with the kind of intricate handwork Germanier has become known for.
The most dramatic moments came from a series of gowns built from feather-like beaded fronds, dramatically ballooning out from fitted, jeweled bodices in pink, yellow, and black-and-white. These sculptural silhouettes read as wearable art, transforming the body into a canvas for volume and movement. Elsewhere, sheer fringe looks in silver and black offered a more fluid counterpoint, with tassel detailing cascading from halter necklines and draped waistbands for a look that moved as much as it made a statement.


Color played a defining role throughout, with an ombré beaded blazer dress in a rainbow gradient with black fringe standing out as one of the collection’s most striking pieces. The contrast between the collection’s soft, sensual moments and its more architectural, high-volume looks gave the show a sense of range, proving that maximalism and wearability aren’t mutually exclusive in Germanier’s hands.


Taken together, the collection reinforced Kevin Germanier’s reputation as one of couture’s most inventive voices, unafraid to push proportion and embellishment to their limits while still keeping an eye toward the red carpet.

Cardi B Stuns at Paris Couture Week in Rahul Mishra, Striped Jean Paul Gaultier, Snake Print David Koma, Red Robert Wun, and More!
Cardi B descended on Paris Haute Couture Week 2026 and made it very clear that she had no intention of blending in.

The rapper and style icon delivered look after look during her time in the French capital, working with her team to pull from some of the most talked-about Houses on the couture calendar. Here is a breakdown of every moment.
Rahul Mishra
Cardi kicked off her Paris Couture Week run in Rahul Mishra, one of the most celebrated Indian designers on the Paris Haute Couture calendar, known for his breathtaking hand-embroidered, nature-inspired creations. The intricate, sculptural look was a masterclass in craftsmanship and a perfect opening statement for her week in Paris.
Rowen Rose
She grabbed dinner at Siena restaurant wearing a lilac Rowen Rose polo dress and Christian Louboutin heels. Hot!
Jean Paul Gaultier
Never one to shy away from a bold print, Cardi stepped out in a striped Jean Paul Gaultier catsuit that felt like a love letter to the House’s irreverent DNA. The look commanded attention and delivered on every level.
David Koma
For an outing at the Messika party, Cardi turned to David Koma, opting for a snake print look that balanced edge with glamour — a combination she has made her signature.
Georges Chakra
Perhaps the most talked-about moment of Cardi’s Paris week came when she was spotted wearing a look straight from the Georges Chakra Couture Fall/Winter 2026/27 runway — mere hours after it had debuted in the gilded salon of Karl Lagerfeld’s former mansion. The immediacy of the moment was a testament to the House’s red carpet power and Cardi’s ability to turn a runway look into a cultural event.
Robert Wun
Cardi closed out her Paris Couture Week run in ravishing red, stepping out in a runway couture gown by Robert Wun that stopped the internet in its tracks. Draped, dramatic, and unmistakably Cardi, the look was a perfect final statement for one of the most memorable celebrity fashion weeks in recent memory.
Cardi B at Paris Couture Week was not just a fashion moment — it was a declaration. She showed up, showed out, and reminded the world exactly why she belongs in the front row of every major House in the city.

Manish Malhotra Debuts Fall 2026 “Maa” Collection at Paris Haute Couture Week
Manish Malhotra made his Paris Haute Couture Week debut, closing out the third day of shows with a collection that doubled as a deeply personal tribute. Titled “Maa,” the collection was dedicated to Malhotra’s late mother, and the show opened to the sound of a heartbeat playing over the runway, setting an emotional, intimate tone before a single look appeared.

The collection was structured in four acts. It opened with “Cocoon – The Nurturing Heart,” where sculptural silhouettes, rounded volumes, and architectural balloon forms evoked the earliest stages of life, turning couture into both structure and shelter. From there, “Bond – The Knots of Life” softened the silhouettes, with fluid drapery and layered construction reflecting the invisible connection between mother and child. The third act, “Becoming – Finding My Voice,” put craftsmanship at the center, reinterpreting Indian artisanal traditions including vintage salli embroidery, taban sequins, zardozi, resham, and crystal work through precision tailoring and architectural corsetry. The collection culminated in “Abundance – In Full Bloom,” with monumental gowns and richly embellished surfaces representing legacy passed between generations.


The collection moved through a palette of blush pink, cream, coral, gold, red, and white, built around rich velvet, floral appliqués, fringe, cording, and bow detailing. Several gowns featured braided cord and rope treatments wrapped sculpturally around the body, while strong-shouldered cocoon coats and exaggerated silhouettes gave the collection an architectural, almost otherworldly quality. Sea-creature-inspired shapes and dimensional florals appeared throughout, alongside statement jewelry moments — ornate earrings and delicate head jewels — that anchored nearly every look in old-world glamour. Personal references were woven throughout: the blush and rose hues were inspired by Malhotra’s mother, floral motifs drew from her favorite blooms, and jewelry-inspired embellishments served as intimate expressions of remembrance.


The emotional core of the collection came through most clearly in a gown embroidered with sculptural figures depicting mother-and-child embraces, a direct nod to the collection’s dedication. Elsewhere, a red floral gown paired with a matching coat stood out as one of the show’s most striking moments, balancing drama with wearability. As an extension of the collection, Manish Malhotra High Jewellery presented sculptural pieces built from monumental diamonds, rubies, kunzites, rubellites, and rare sapphires, echoing the collection’s celebration of motherhood.


Beyond the craftsmanship, the show carried historic weight for Malhotra himself. This first couture presentation on the Paris schedule marks a milestone in a career that began in Bollywood costume design decades ago, before he launched his own label in 2005. His collection joined a lineup that included Zuhair Murad and other established houses this season, placing his work squarely within the Paris couture conversation. For Malhotra, the show was both a personal and professional milestone: a chance to honor his mother’s memory while marking his arrival on one of fashion’s biggest stages.

The Resort Souvenir Mood – Julia Berolzheimer
OUTFIT DETAILS: Doen Top (last seen here) Follow Suit Bikini, Simon Miller Skirt, Ancient Greek Sandals, Etro Bag, Sherman Field Necklaces (similar, less expensive here and here) Retrosuperfuture Sunglasses
The best resort pieces feel like they were chosen with the trip already in mind. A color pulled from a painted doorway, a necklace that looks handmade at a seaside market, a sandal that seems like it came from a shop on the island.
That is the heart of destination dressing. I love letting a place guide the way I put a look together, taking cues from the colors of the landscape, the shells along the shore, the stripe of a beach umbrella, the blue of a tiled wall. One small reference leads into the next until the whole outfit feels like it grew out of the setting itself.
Bright crochet, printed layers, woven textures, and little hints of color make a look feel sunlit and specific. These are the pieces I reach for by the water, on a walk through town, at a long lunch, or packed away for the next place I can’t wait to explore.

Career Paths: How Many of Your Classmates Are Still Doing What They Trained to Do?

I had dinner with an old friend from law school last week, and we found ourselves doing what old classmates always seem to do: trying to remember where everyone ended up. Who made partner? Who became a judge? Who moved in-house? Who seems to spend half the year posting from fabulous vacation homes on Instagram? (Good for her!)
One thing that struck me was how many of the women we knew were no longer practicing law (myself included). It reminded me of something I’d read years ago: women have made up more than half of law school classes for quite a while now (apparently since 2016!), but several years into practice, they become much harder to find in the traditional legal career pipeline.
Obviously, people leave for all kinds of reasons. Some switch careers, some stay home with children for a while, some build businesses, some move into adjacent fields, and some simply decide practicing law isn’t what they want to spend their lives doing. (I also wonder if maybe those who move to smaller law firms are harder to track!)
It made me wonder whether this is unique to law, or whether medicine, consulting, accounting, engineering, academia, finance, and other professions see the same thing.
Some questions for today:
- If you think back to your graduating class (whether from college, graduate school, law school, medical school, business school, etc.), roughly what percentage of people are still working in that profession?
- Did you notice a point where a lot of people seemed to leave? (Was there a “five-year mark,” or did departures happen at various points?)
- Were the people who left mostly women, mostly men, or about evenly split?
- If you left your original profession, what pulled you toward something else?
- Do you think your profession has gotten better at retaining women than it was 10 or 20 years ago?

Claire’s Life: Day 1 At Paris Haute Couture Week in Balmain and Tony Ward
Happy Tuesday!
Haute Couture Week in Paris kicked off yesterday!

It is not only Haute Couture week–it is also Hot as Hades in Paris, with temperatures touching 100 degrees and venues with no AC OR fans! So that means dressing up and showing out is not always comfortable, but we do it for fashion.

My first show of the day was Georges Hobeika. The show was full of sequined, bejeweled pieces that would look perfect for any red carpet. I was juiced to grab a pic with Sheryl Lee Ralph and her daughter/stylist Ivy Coco on the front row.

For the occasion, I wore a Balmain dress I was blessed to find at TSMGO Rental. Shout out to my network of stylish sisters who make sure I am dressed to the nines for every occasion!

I completed the look with Femme La Silver sandals and tiny shades from Fashion Bomb Daily Shop.

I changed into a Tony Ward dress for the designer’s show that night.

I grabbed a pic with Jackie Aina before calling it a night.

This is my first time at Haute Couture, but I LOVE IT!

Keep it locked here for more from Paris Couture Week.
Bisous!

Claire’s Life: Day 2 at Paris Couture Week Wearing Alaia, Christian Louboutin, and Flore K NY
So, before I came to Haute Couture week, I researched: What to Wear for Paris Couture:
I could find anything, however have seen quite a range while here. From tees and chinos to ball gowns! Honestly, in this heat, whatever people are most comfortable in works for me.
I wasn’t quite sure, so decided to bet on black, even if it’s faux leather!

We still must suffer sometimes. Yesterday, I attended the Aziz, Stephane Rolland, and Georges Chakra shows in an Alaia dress from my closet, Christian Louboutin Z pumps, and a Flore K NY croc bag.

I added my favorite Fendi frames (and an electric fan!) and was ready to take on the day.

Did I mention I’m having a great time while here? I love Paris! I was able to sleep in today, so I’m ready for other shows this evening.

Tamara Ralph Presents Feathers, Fringe, and Fantasy for Couture Fall 2026
Tamara Ralph took couture into full fantasy territory with her Fall 2026 collection, delivering a lineup steeped in texture, drama, and old-Hollywood glamour. The show moved between two distinct moods: soft, body-conscious sensuality and voluminous, sculptural excess.

Feathers were the collection’s defining signature, appearing as delicate epaulettes, oversized capes, and dramatic sleeve treatments in black, white, and ivory. One standout look paired a sheer illusion bodice with black ostrich feather trim, while another closed the show in a fitted white gown swallowed by a cloud of white feathers cascading from the shoulders.

Elsewhere, liquid metallics and crystal embellishment took center stage. A silver sequined gown dripped in crystal fringe from the shoulders down, and a strapless white satin gown featured a crystal fan bodice paired with fur-trimmed sleeves. Beadwork was equally prominent, with lattice and floral motifs rendered in fine crystal detail across sheer, nude-lined gowns.


A muted palette of blush, nude, mint, and seafoam ran through much of the collection, offering a softer counterpoint to the more maximalist silhouettes. A single emerald satin gown, strapless with a draped, sculptural skirt, provided a bold pop of color against the otherwise pastel-heavy lineup.

Corsetry and cutouts reinforced the collection’s focus on the body, while sari-inspired drapery and one-shoulder chiffon gowns nodded to a global sensibility. Tamara Ralph closed the show on a run of white and ivory looks, each more embellished than the last, reaffirming her signature for maximalist, red-carpet-ready couture.
