Kicking off in New York, moving to London, then Milan and finally closing in Paris, these were the moments of the autumn/winter shows that got the internet talking.
KANYE DEBUTED A COLLECTION
It was never going to be a quiet affair; Kanye launched his capsule collection for the sportswear brand Adidas featuring bomber jackets, oversized sweaters and distressed jumpers for men.
For women, it was more feminine, featuring body-conscious silhouettes – tube dresses, running T-shirts and cropped tops.
The show was attended by an impressive array of A-list stars from both the fashion and music worlds and the internet imploded over pictures of wife Kim, baby North, Jay Z, Beyoncé, Rihanna and Vogue editor Anna Wintour.
D&G’S ‘VIVA LA MAMMA’ SHOW
The Italian duo paid tribute to motherhood, sending pregnant models and mothers clutching children down the catwalk in a celebration of the Italian matriarch, otherwise known as la mamma.
KIM KARDASHIAN GOES BLONDE
The reality TV star doesn’t do things by halves, not only lightening her locks, but going platinum blonde as she unveiled her new barnet during Paris Fashion Week. She swiftly took her new do to the front row where she sat alongside husband Kanye West at the Balmain show.
JARED LETO ALSO WENT BLOND
But it wasn’t only Kardashian West who revealed newly dyed platinum locks at Balmain’s front row – actor Jared Leto also unveiled a completely new look: shorter hair, dyed a similar hue, styled slicked-back; just like Kim.
SNOOP DOGG PERFORMS
Kanye wasn’t the only rapper to surprise the fashion crowds. The singer made an unexpected appearance at Etam’s lingerie show, performing the uncensored version of Drop It Like It’s Hot as the models paraded the catwalk in retro swimwear and underwear.
ZOOLANDER TAKES OVER AT VALENTINO
Actors Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson made a surprise appearance on the Valentino catwalk, suggesting a sequel Zoolander film is in the works. The duo also posed backstage with Anna Wintour. The internet went mad.
CHANEL’S BRASSERIE
Karl Lagerfeld transformed the Grand Palais in Paris into a highly personalised brasserie to showcase his autumn/winter 2015 collection for Chanel, which saw Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne swop the catwalk for the bar where they were seen chatting and nibbling on croissants.
