How to Watch Paris Fashion Week Online

You do not need an invitation to see the shows. Where Paris streams its collections, and this season’s remaining schedule through October 6.

You can watch Paris Fashion Week from your sofa this season. Most of the big houses want you to. The Spring/Summer 2027 womenswear calendar runs from September 28 to October 6. That comes from the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode (FHCM), which sets the official schedule. Today is October 1, so six days remain. Below, we list where the shows stream and how the times convert. Then we run through the houses still to come.

Where to watch Paris Fashion Week

Start with the federation itself, because it is the official place to watch Paris Fashion Week. The FHCM launched Paris Fashion Week Online in 2020 with Launchmetrics, and its official calendar now has a physical side and a digital side. On the FHCM’s Paris Fashion Week site, every house gets an entry, and each entry carries one of two labels.

The first label is “Livestream.” That means the show goes out live, at the scheduled time. The second label is “Film of the show revealed later,” or a set reveal time. In that case the house posts a video after the guests have seen it in the room. So you can still see nearly everything, but not always in real time.

The houses also post show videos on their own websites and social accounts, and many fans watch Paris Fashion Week there. If you follow one designer closely, their own account is the simplest place to find the show. Then again, the FHCM calendar is the one page that lists everyone, so we keep it open in a tab all week.

Converting the show times

Paris is six hours ahead of New York during this stretch of fall. A show set for 2 p.m. in Paris therefore starts at 8 a.m. Eastern. That makes the late-evening Paris slots the friendliest for American viewers. They land in the early afternoon here. On the other hand, the 10 a.m. Paris shows start at 4 a.m. Eastern, so most of us will catch those on replay.

Catching up on the first days

If you are only tuning in now, three days have already gone by. On September 29, the FHCM calendar listed livestreams from Christian Dior, Maison Margiela and Saint Laurent. On September 30, Courrèges, Balmain, Dries Van Noten, Stella McCartney and Acne Studios all streamed. For replays, start with each house’s own website and social accounts, then check the FHCM calendar entry. We suggest starting with the shows you heard the most about this week, then working backward.

Shows still to come, by day

Here is what remains on the official calendar from today. We list the FHCM livestreams with Eastern times. After that, we note the big names that release a film instead.

Thursday, October 1

Chloé streamed at 4 a.m., before this page went up, and Balenciaga goes live at 8 a.m. Rick Owens goes live at 11:30 a.m. Isabel Marant closes the day at 2 p.m. Schiaparelli also shows tonight in Paris, but its film arrives later rather than live.

Friday, October 2

Loewe opens the livestreams at 5:30 a.m., and then Issey Miyake streams at 7 a.m. Casablanca follows at 8:30 a.m. Yohji Yamamoto streams at 1 p.m. Givenchy shows in the afternoon in Paris, although the calendar lists a film for later.

Saturday, October 3

Saturday is the busiest day. Celine streams at 6 a.m., and Vivienne Westwood follows at 8 a.m. Elie Saab goes live at 10:30 a.m., and Ann Demeulemeester streams at 12:30 p.m. Hermès is different. The house shows at 3 p.m. Paris time, while its film appears from 6 p.m. Paris time, which is noon in New York.

Sunday, October 4

Lacoste streams at 4:30 a.m. Miu Miu, one of the shows people wait for, goes live at 7 a.m. Jean Paul Gaultier streams at 2 p.m. In between, Valentino and Mugler show in Paris and post films afterward.

Monday, October 5

Sacai streams at 4 a.m., and Shiatzy Chen follows at 5:30 a.m. Gabriela Hearst goes live at 7 a.m., and Zimmermann streams at 8:30 a.m. Kiko Kostadinov follows at 10 a.m. Chanel shows that evening at 8 p.m. in Paris. However, the calendar lists its film from 9 p.m. Paris time, which is 3 p.m. Eastern.

Tuesday, October 6

The final day is short. Pierre Cardin streams at 11 a.m. Eastern. Louis Vuitton then closes the week with a livestream at 12:30 p.m. Eastern.

How to watch Paris Fashion Week well

A few habits make it easier to watch Paris Fashion Week from home. First, pick three or four houses rather than trying to see every show. The calendar holds dozens of names, and the replays will wait for you.

Second, watch the first minute closely. Many designers set the tone of a collection in the opening look, the music and the room. Third, check the set as well as the clothes. Paris shows often build an entire world for 12 minutes. The camera sometimes catches it better than a third-row seat.

Finally, sleep through the 4 a.m. slots. Most houses post the show on their own channels afterward, so breakfast is a fine time to catch up. For more runway coverage, browse our Style section.

What happens after the week

The runway is only part of Paris. The FHCM also runs SPHERE, its showroom for emerging designers. It sits at the Palais de Tokyo from September 30 to October 6. A digital version runs by invitation through The New Black, so it suits buyers more than casual viewers.

The week ends after the last show on Tuesday. Until then, the federation calendar is the page to bookmark, because it lists every house, time and label. Best of all, it costs nothing to watch Paris Fashion Week there. For film, music and art between shows, see our Culture section.
