In Photos: Most Talked-About Moments From the 2025 Paris Fashion Week So Far
Paris Fashion Week 2025 has been a whirlwind of bold fashion choices and unexpected controversies, with celebrities like Meghan Markle, Nicole Kidman, and Heidi Klum grabbing headlines. The Duchess of Sussex, in particular, has drawn attention for a series of moments that left both fans and critics talking.
During her Paris visit, Meghan Markle was spotted resting her feet on a limo seat while driving through the city. Her route passed several iconic landmarks, including the Pont Alexandre III and Pont des Invalides, and continued toward the Pont de l’Alma — the tunnel where Princess Diana tragically died in 1997. Online viewers criticized Markle’s actions as “incredibly insensitive” given the historical significance of the location.
At the Chanel Womenswear Spring/Summer 2026 show, Nicole Kidman made a striking appearance with her daughters Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. Observers noted that the actress seemed “not steady on her feet” and displayed “sad eyes,” though she maintained poise while posing under the event’s dramatic lighting. Kidman complemented her daughters’ denim-inspired looks with a crisp white shirt and wide-leg pants, sharing warm moments of connection with them in front of the cameras.
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle’s fashion choices at the same event sparked debate. She arrived in an all-white ensemble featuring a flowing cape and crisp shirt, paired with a sleek bun. Some commentators likened her outfit to a “toilet paper roll,” noting its minimalist, avant-garde design.
Markle also attracted attention for an “awkward” interaction with designer Pierpaolo Piccioli, which was caught on video. The pair greeted each other with a kiss and a casual embrace, with their faces momentarily teetering on the edge of an accidental kiss. The gesture, combined with hand and wrist contact during conversation, drew mixed reactions online.
