While Paris is renowned as the epicenter of high fashion, the ensembles seen on Avenue Montaigne during Fashion Week left some traditionalists bewildered, as celebrities vied for the spotlight among their elite peers.

Since its inception in 1973, the French capital has transformed into a glamorous hub, attracting a multitude of famous personalities who are expected to mirror the elegance of the runway models.

This week, however, a few celebrities missed the mark, finding themselves featured on numerous worst-dressed lists circulating the internet.

Among them was Dua Lipa, 30, who chose a daring ensemble—a coordinated knee-length skirt, jacket, and purse adorned in a striking yellow, black, and red pattern. An American fashion magazine remarked that the look was “less than visually appealing.”

While the British singer attempted to bring a burst of sunshine to the Parisian scene, Lauren Sánchez seemed oblivious to that intent, opting instead for a muted all-grey outfit. The outfit, cinched at the waist, featured a dramatic fur collar as its standout element.

However, the 56-year-old’s wardrobe choice wasn’t her only setback; she also experienced an awkward moment, stumbling at the entrance of the Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2026 show on Monday.

Thankfully, the wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos recovered quickly from her trip and continued inside alongside her billionaire husband. 

Lauren was also widely mocked for her blood-red Schiaparelli suit, which has been likened to an ensemble from ‘Shein’, during another outing in the French capital.

Making equally questionable fashion choices was Tilda Swinton. 

While most would safely presume Paris Fashion Week is all about the glitz and glamour, the British actress, 65, decided to opt against the status quo and wore a sophisticated ensemble more suitable for a day at Cheltenham races or a dinner at a countryside pub.

The Chronicles of Narnia star donned a tweed jacket and matching midi skirt, with two-tone slingback heels and a patterned blouse for the Chanel Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2026 collection.

But none of those outfits were quite as bizarre as Brazilian social media star Livia Nunes’ attire. 

The internet personality, who often appears at fashion week events, attended the Saint Laurent Menswear Fall/Winter 2026-2027 show in what looked like a raunchy white lace bodysuit best left in the bedroom.

She added some modesty to the look via a silky green blouse and a pair of sheer black tights, teamed with black high heels. 

Meanwhile, Nicole Kidman, 58, turned heads in a quirky black feathered mini dress, which featured a leather skirt, and dark shades as she made her arrival and posed for the cameras at the Chanel show.

She boosted her height with eye-catching black and white shoes and displayed her smooth visage as she sat beside Anna Wintour on the front row.

But it certainly wasn’t just the ladies who failed to impress during Paris Fashion Week – the men put on equally bizarre displays.

Sons of Anarchy actor Charlie Hunnam, 45, made an appearance at the Saint Laurent Menswear Fall/Winter 2026-2027 show.

For the outing, he donned a mix-match of colours, including a silky green shirt, teamed with an equally shiny pair of navy trousers and a brown trench coat.

Meanwhile, The Summer I Turned Pretty’s Christopher Briney opted for an almost cropped jacket to attend the Saint Laurent show. 

Elsewhere, Salma Hayek’s step-daughter Mathilde Pinault donned an oversized bright yellow coat, with eye-catching gloves, teamed with a lime mini skirt.
