The ability of couture’s intricate craftsmanship to be transportive in nature is something the middle of winter is more than welcoming towards. From January 20th-22nd, the Spring 2020 couture shows in Paris allowed spectators near and far into the fantasy where haute couture first began.
Your front-row invitation awaits.
