A grand ballroom, two iconic designers and four generations of Kim Kardashian’s clan made for an energetic evening show when Balmain designer Olivier Rousteing showed off his seasonal guest tenor collection for the home of Jean Paul Gaultier.
Kardashian parted ways with nanny Mary Jo Campbell, mom Kris Jenner and daughter North West, making it a family affair. Kardashian walked in the Balenciaga show earlier in the day. “It was a nervous energy, but it was great,” she said of her morning walk on the catwalk.
Jenner said Campbell came for the day of the show. “It’s his last night in Paris for a while,” he said, pointing to his mother. He looked at the row below. “We have quite a lineup, even Anna is here,” she said, citing Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, who sat next to Kardashian. Kardashian and West wore matching nose chains, which were visible on the runway.
Colombian singer Maluma was in awe of everyone, posing for pictures with everyone. “I think it’s crazy, but I’m in a world of so much madness,” he said. “I’m seeing a lot of characters right now and I think that’s what Olivier wants to show, so I think he’s doing a great job.”
He was seated in front of Gaultier himself, who sipped champagne in his seat, along with a few male models wearing nothing but Speedo, who had been accused of carrying a train of a guest’s gown.
The “Emily in Paris” cast was on hand, enjoying a few hours of down-time after wrapping up late night shoots at 4 a.m.
Lucien Laviscount had a minor wound on his forehead, a bruise left after being knocked down by an electric scooter in the morning run. “Listen, I’m trying to keep 100 right now,” he joked of recovering after a fall.
Yet he harbors no ill-will towards the city or its unsightly transportation hazards. “The city is on fire. The city is already magical to me, but with Fashion Week coming up and seeing everyone coming out to make them feel good, it’s wonderful,” he said. “Since I first came to Paris last year, my feet haven’t been touching the ground. Literally this whole place is a museum with its roof removed, like I’m living in a magical world and I don’t want to dream Stop by.”
When he visited the city, he said that he would be filming here by the end of September. There’s a project after that, but it’s still “a little bit quiet,” he said.
Camille Razat, who is living it up during Fashion Week attending Armani and last week’s Celine show, went hand in hand with the Lavicount and sat next to castmate Ashley Parks. They were loving the chaotic excitement of the room.
Parks, who plays the occasional drag king with an eclectic style, said the show influenced her fashion choices. “I’ve become a lot more bold and advanced in my choices because of the show,” she said.
She was wearing a vintage Gaultier velvet gown for the occasion. “It was love at first sight. I’ve never done anything like this. It was the first time I saw it and it was like ‘Let’s try this first,’ and it fit like a glove,” she said. “It was destiny.”
