If anyone can pull off the nearly impossible, wearing a haute couture look mere hours after it debuts on the runway, it’s Zendaya. Or, more accurately, her longtime collaborator and “image architect,” Law Roach. The The Odyssey press tour has quickly become a masterclass in fashion storytelling, with the actor already stepping out in a just-shown Schiaparelli couture look and an archival 1997 Givenchy look (from Alexander McQueen’s first collection for the French house) that sent the internet into overdrive. As always, the clothes are as much a part of the narrative as the film itself.
For the London premiere, Zendaya transformed the red carpet into couture’s latest runway, wearing Daniel Roseberry’s sculptural Schiaparelli creation almost immediately after its Paris debut. Blurring the line between fashion and art, the look centred on a hyper-realistic corset that celebrated the female form through surrealist craftsmanship. A column skirt dripping in cascading white and crystal beads softened the architectural silhouette with fluid movement, while a five-strand diamond necklace amplified the look’s unmistakable glamour.
If there was any doubt that The Odyssey press tour would become couture season’s most anticipated second act, Zendaya has already put that conversation to rest. And with the film not hitting theatres until July 17, there’s still another week of premieres ahead—which means one thing: expect more fashion history to be made.

Pandora has been expanding its horizons, taking a new creative direction for exquisite collections that speak to the brand’s artistic depth. Now the brand has partnered with British celebrity stylist Harry Lambert for Pandora Wonders, a whimsical pearlescent collection captured in a surrealist campaign. In an exclusive interview with FASHION, Lambert refers to the fantasy motifs and childhood nostalgia as “the joy of the collection,” showing how luxury fashion is best done with an imaginative lens.

Stepping into a fairytale landscape, guests at Chanel’s recent Paris Haute Couture show watched familiar childhood stories come to life before their eyes. Titled “Gaby and the Beanstalk,” the collection marked a significant moment for the house as it showcased Matthieu Blazy’s evolving creative vision for Chanel. Exploring the idea that haute couture is “not just a fairy tale” for the women who wear it, the collection instead imagines couture as something woven into everyday life. Drawing inspiration from Jack and the Beanstalk and Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Blazy balanced precise tailoring with whimsical flourishes, proving fantasy and craftsmanship can coexist. The front row was just as captivating, with Pedro Pascal, Alexa Demie, Teyana Taylor and Tilda Swinton all turning out to celebrate the designer’s latest chapter for the French maison.

Tiffany & Co. made a dazzling statement during Paris Haute Couture with an immersive presentation celebrating three of its most exquisite collections: Legendary Bird: The Sapphire Edition, Bird on a Rock Fine and High Jewelry and Blue Book 2026: Hidden Garden. Blending extraordinary gemstones with sculptural design, each collection showcased the house’s enduring fascination with nature through a distinctly modern lens. The undeniable standout was the Legendary Bird creation, whose vibrant sapphires and meticulous craftsmanship reaffirmed Tiffany & Co.‘s mastery of high jewellery—and stole the spotlight in the process.

Jonathan Anderson continues to redefine the Dior canon with his latest Paris Haute Couture collection. Drawing inspiration from the work of American sculptor Linda Benglis, the F/W 2026–27 offering explored the intersection of couture and contemporary art, treating fabric as a medium for sculptural expression. As Anderson explained, the collection considers “abstraction in material” and ultimately asks, “How do you get reality from it?" The answer unfolded through masterful pleating, fluid silhouettes and richly textured surfaces, where intricate beading, painterly florals and flashes of metallic shimmer transformed each look into a study of form in motion.
