Paris Fashion Week wrapped up, and the Black celebrities who descended on the French capital are heading home. But before they go, we need to talk about the incredible style moments they delivered. From front row seats to late-night festivities, Black Hollywood showed up and showed out with looks that deserve a permanent spot in our moodboards. We’ve been watching closely, and here’s everyone who made Paris their personal runway.
The week brought an impressive lineup of talent and style—from musicians to actors to fashion icons. Paris Fashion Week became a showcase for some of the most impeccable fashion moments of the season, and these Black stars absolutely dominated every show they attended.
Giveon
The singer rolled up to Balenciaga in a brown monochrome suit that had everyone wondering why he wasn’t walking the runway himself. Simple, sharp, and effortless—exactly the kind of fit that reminds you why some people just get fashion.
Teyana Taylor
Taylor showed up to Balenciaga looking like she stepped out of a fairy tale. Bright orange knee-length hair paired with a soft muted green dress? She had every head in the room turning. This is the kind of moment that stays with you.
Danielle Deadwyler
The “Harder They Fall” star powered through Paris heat in a black leather jacket layered over a pink tasseled dress. That’s commitment to the craft. Some fashion moments demand sacrifice, and Deadwyler delivered without hesitation.
Jodie Turner-Smith
Turner-Smith mixed opposing textures like a pro: a flowing white silk gown paired with light-wash jeans and pointed heels. Throw in the sunglasses, a structured shoulder bag, and crimped hair, and you’ve got next-level styling.
Cardi B
Cardi B owned the Robert Wun show in a showstopping bright red ball gown and a voluminous beehive hairstyle. She looked like literal royalty, and every single detail was calculated perfection.
Lupita Nyong’o
While Fashion Week was happening, so was the French premiere of Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey,” and Nyong’o caught everyone’s attention in a striking red cutout dress that showed off her impeccable figure and effortless elegance.
Sheryl Lee Ralph
Ralph brought timeless sophistication to the Stéphane Rolland show with a black floor-length gown, open-toe heels, statement jewelry, and luminous makeup. The kind of look that never goes out of style.
Law Roach
Where there’s a fashion moment, Law Roach is there. The legendary stylist was spotted at Schiaparelli—the same show where he scored Zendaya’s gown for “The Odyssey” London premiere. His presence at these shows is always a reminder of his influence on fashion’s biggest moments.
Ruth Negga
The “Passing” actress channeled summer florals at the start of Fashion Week. Her summery dress was perfectly complemented by pink bow heels and a sophisticated clutch. Sometimes less is more.
Pharrell Williams and Helen Lasichanh
The couple made an appearance at Christian Dior, representing two different style philosophies. Pharrell kept it streetwear-casual with red Vans and a gray zip hoodie, while Lasichanh went smart casual with white jeans, a coordinating button-up, and a maroon purse.
Zendaya
Zendaya joined Nyong’o at “The Odyssey” premiere in a white gown that commanded attention. Those voluminous ruffles on the sleeves and neckline were pure drama in the best possible way. This is red carpet royalty.
Euzhan Palcy
Oscar-winning director Euzhan Palcy brought pure elegance to the Chanel show. That white button-up adorned with floral detailing was perfectly poised between sophisticated and seasonally appropriate.
Anok Yai
Model Anok Yai has a gift for making basics look haute couture. A white tank top and schoolboy shorts paired with ballet flats and a black backpack in anyone else’s hands might be casual wear. In hers? It’s a complete look.
Quenlin Blackwell
The influencer nailed the Chanel show fit in a gorgeous shade of blue elevated by a tasseled bag. Details matter, and Blackwell never skips them.
Adot Gak
South Sudanese model Adot Gak continued turning heads at Christian Dior in a flowing pink dress with strategic black detailing at the neckline and wrists. Off-runway style at its finest.
Jackie Aina
Beauty influencer Jackie Aina appeared at Manish Malhotra in a striking black-and-white gown with blonde hair that suits her perfectly. Perfect score on the Fashion Week circuit.
Laura Harrier
Outside Giorgio Armani Privé, Harrier wore a silk corset top covered in blue and green floral patterns. She kept the rest minimal—dark sunglasses and diamond drop earrings. That’s restraint paired with impact.
Cynthia Erivo
Erivo brought drama to Balenciaga in a brown sequined mermaid dress layered with a cropped bomber jacket. Her face card really doesn’t need much help, but the styling provided the perfect complement.
