In the summer sunshine of the French capital, big names like Carla Bruni and Catherine Deneuve kept cool courtesy of Jean Paul Gaultier and his Autumn/Winter 2017 Couture show.
A winter wonderland theme was created on the catwalk and white confetti snow fell as models, beautifully dressed for a chilly day, strutted their stuff.
A new shoulder silhouette was just one sign that the French fashion guru is a man for all seasons.

And the Paris Haute Couture shows would not have been complete without the legendary Karl Lagerfeld.
