The second model defied convention with an unbuttoned shirt, cufftails, and a glossy Loco stamp designer handbag that carried the message, "capitalism won't take her where she really wants to go." This Paris Fashion Week puts women's empowerment in the spotlight, with 67 shows scheduled over eight days.
Notably, Sarah Burton, the departing creative director of Alexander McQueen, praised Catherine, the Princess of Wales, as the ideal model for demonstrating the power of feminism, emphasizing Kate Middleton's qualities as a respectable, discreet, and selfless mother who repeats outfits, setting an example for women. Kate Middleton has had a longstanding relationship with Alexander McQueen, regularly donning their dresses and coats for royal engagements.
Turning our attention back to Dior at Paris Fashion Week, Meghan Markle was not on the guest list, despite media reports suggesting a potential collaboration with the French fashion house. A spokesperson for Dior in Paris dismissed these reports as unfounded, clarifying that there had been no contract negotiations or recent contact with Meghan Markle.
Meanwhile, Prince William and Kate Middleton have adjusted their social media strategy. In their latest post on X (formerly Twitter), the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a thread summarizing their September events, including their Mike Tindle podcast presentation and other public appearances. Fans praised their creative approach to social media but noted that some notable engagements were missing from the roundup. This move is part of the couple's efforts to connect with a younger audience.
These developments coincide with Meghan Markle's plans for a social media comeback as she explores her next career move, possibly entering the world of influencing.
