SCHIAPARELLI AT PLACE VENDÔME FALL 2024

As night fell over Place Vendôme, a mesmerizing scene unfolded as models emerged from the Schiaparelli show into the enchanting Parisian evening. The warmth of the day had waned, but their spirits remained electric. Laughter filled the air as they reveled in the lingering magic, unwilling to let the night draw to a close. One figure paused beneath the glow of passing headlights, standing before the iconic Vendôme Column in a glittering gown a radiant nod to the house’s surrealist heritage. Photographer Johnny Dufort captured the moment, transforming the historic square, designed by Jules Hardouin Mansart, into a stage where past and present seamlessly converged.

Their spontaneous wanderings brought them to 21 Place Vendôme, the legendary heart of Schiaparelli. From a window above, a figure appeared, clutching the signature Anatomy bag a modern charm against a cascade of Shocking pink blooms, as if holding onto a piece of the night’s enchantment.

In this fleeting moment, Dufort’s lens immortalized the essence of Schiaparelli’s Fall 2024 ready-to-wear collection: a dazzling fragment of Parisian nocturne. Under the visionary direction of Daniel Roseberry, the house continues to blend surrealist artistry with contemporary elegance, redefining luxury for the modern era.

In a world yearning for the extraordinary, Schiaparelli offers a timeless reminder of the boundless power of imagination and style an icon of now, rooted in forever.
