The Magic in the Stars Takes Over L’Oréal Paris Le Défilé

The magic in the stars happened at L’Oréal Paris “Le Défilé”, bringing together visionary fashion and expert makeup artistry to make one powerful feminist statement under the lights of Paris.
Le Défilé is L’Oréal Paris’ annual public runway show during Paris Fashion Week, bringing the brand’s global ambassadors, models and special guests together with fashion, hair and makeup artistry in one large-scale celebration of beauty, confidence and women’s empowerment.
Held on September 28, 2026, at Place Joffre with the Eiffel Tower standing tall behind the runway, this year’s ninth edition arrived under the theme “Express Your Worth.” L’Oréal Paris once again turned beauty, fashion and sisterhood into a public-facing Paris Fashion Week spectacle.
