Brands such as Schiaparelli, Balenciaga, Chanel and Dior showcased custom, handmade designs that take hundreds of hours to create. Haute couture week, which happens twice a year, is so exclusive that you have to be invited to present a collection by the French fashion industry's governing body.

Shows across the four-day period attracted star-studded attendees, including Bad Bunny, Hudson Williams, Sabrina Carpenter and Cardi B.
