Zadig & Voltaire is back at Paris Fashion Week, and this time the spotlight isn’t just on the runway — it’s also on what happens behind it.
After a three-year absence, the French fashion house returns for Fall/Winter 2026, with creative director Dan Sablon ushering in a fresh chapter for the brand. While the collection itself marks a new direction, the behind-the-scenes moments reveal the energy and craft that shape the show before the first model even hits the runway.
Captured by photographer Danielle Sinai Shvadron, the images offer a glimpse into the controlled chaos that defines fashion week backstage. Models move between fittings, stylists make last-minute adjustments, and the creative team fine-tunes every detail as the presentation takes shape.
There’s an intimacy to these moments — the kind of perspective that highlights the teamwork and quiet concentration behind a fashion show long before the lights come up.
The backstage photographs, exclusive to FY Magazine!, provide a rare window into the preparation surrounding Zadig & Voltaire’s return to the Paris runway.
With Dan Sablon guiding the creative direction, the Fall/Winter ’26 presentation signals renewed momentum for the house — and Shvadron’s lens captures the atmosphere where that vision begins.
Sometimes the most compelling fashion stories happen just behind the curtain.
