The official schedule for Paris Fashion Week has been released. The Spring/Summer 2027 women’s ready-to-wear calendar runs from September 28 to October 6, featuring 68 shows and 33 presentations. That’s down from 74 shows and 37 presentations for the Spring/Summer 2026 season, which was a historic one marked by an unprecedented wave of designer debuts. This season, there are only two: Drew Henry, the new artistic director at Courrèges, debuts on September 30 at 10:30am, and Kai Nesselrath, the new design director at Carven, shows on October 1 at 12:30pm.

Several brands are returning to the calendar after missing a season or more. These include Valentino, which showed its fall 2026 collection in Rome; Maison Margiela, which last presented in Shanghai; as well as Sacai, Ester Manas, Christopher Esber, and Casablanca.

Other highlights include major names like Dior, Saint Laurent, Chanel, Tom Ford, Dries Van Noten, Balenciaga, Loewe, Celine, Miu Miu, and Louis Vuitton. Note that Alaïa is hosting a presentation on October 3. The collection will be designed by the studio, as the house has not yet named a new creative director after Pieter Mulier left for Versace earlier this year.

Joining the official show calendar for the first time is Maxhosa Africa, the South African label founded by designer Laduma Ngxokolo. His designs have been worn by celebrities like Beyoncé and Michelle Obama.

Also new is Fidan Novruzova, a Central Saint Martins graduate with Azerbaijani roots and a Moldovan upbringing, who was a semi-finalist for the LVMH Prize in 2024.

Notable absentees from the show schedule include McQueen, which is returning to its home base at London Fashion Week under the direction of Seán McGirr and newly appointed CEO Gianfranco D’Attis. Rabanne is also skipping this season, as new creative director Olivier Rousteing will present his debut show in March. Other absentees are Nina Ricci, whose creative director Harris Reed stepped down in March 2026, and Off-White.
