It was labelled as a hybrid fashion week, with only a handful of brands like Dior, Hermes, Louis Vuitton and Chanel organising physical runway events. Yet, Paris Fashion Week managed to somehow still impress with its digital showmanship.

Like Milan, the vast majority of Paris' Spring/Summer 2021 shows were virtual – something that has caused quite a bit of frustration among runway regulars.
