Paris Fashion Week has kicked off in grand style, and the stars are already making their mark, with Chappell Roan leading the charge. Fresh off her performance with Elton John at his Oscars after-party in Los Angeles, Chappell made her way to Paris to attend her first-ever fashion show at Rabanne. The singer took her place in the front row, donning a stunning backless cream and silver slip dress with lace trim, layered over a matching midi skirt. She accessorized with dramatic dangling earrings that perfectly complemented the metallic tones of her outfit.
Chappell’s signature makeup look was on full display, featuring her iconic white face, a drag-inspired smokey eye that extended to her eyebrows, and a neutral lip. Though she’s still relatively new to the fashion scene, Chappell has a strong connection with Rabanne and its creative director, Julien Dossena. This bond was evident at the 2024 VMAs, where she accepted her Best New Artist award in a medieval-inspired chainmail dress and fringed headdress from the brand. It’s no surprise that her first fashion show experience was with a label that has championed her star power from the start.
Later in the day, Chappell transformed her look for the Rick Owens show at the Palais de Tokyo. Staying true to the silver theme, she wore a striking structural strapless dress with bold cutouts at the bust and midriff. Her outfit was paired with thigh-high black leather GCDS Morso boots, featuring vampiric teeth details in place of traditional heels. Chappell also switched up her makeup, opting for a symmetrical, butterfly-inspired dot pattern across her cheeks and forehead.
With her first fashion show now under her belt, Chappell Roan is just getting started in Paris. The week is young, and there’s no telling what other surprises she has in store as she continues to shine in the City of Light. Stay tuned for more from this rising star!
