Designers Compete for the Starriest Front Row at Paris Couture Week Fall 2024: Jennifer Lopez, Doja Cat and More Celebrities

Before the Olympic Games kick off in Paris, all eyes are on the fall 2024 haute couture shows. Already it would seem like designers have entered a competition all their own to see who can draw the starriest front row.

At Dior, creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri opened the proceedings strong with an homage to ancient Rome that included Colosseum-worthy draped sheaths and singlets worn over gladiator sandals. In attendance were Lucie de la Falaise, Alex Riviere, Doja Cat and Jennifer Lopez.

Lopez looked every bit the chic French couture client in a tonal brown overcoat and new-look style dress accessorized with what else, but a black Lady Dior bag dangling from her arm.

Meanwhile, Thom Browne continued to curry favor with the Gen Z crowd. Actors Evan Mock, Emma Myers and Omar Ayuso, who have officially joined his league of prepster fashionistas, sat next to one another, posing for cameras in the American designer’s signature plaids and pleated skirts.

On the runway, Browne’s X-ray examinations of haute couture underpinnings were mostly made in toile canvas and were surely an Olympic feat of tailoring and execution for the American designers’ skilled petit mains.

Other notable guests at Browne’s show included Teyana Taylor and Serena Williams, the latter in a scarlet-colored bustier dotted with embroideries shaped like his very own dachshund Hector.
