Paris Fashion Week Menswear 2026
A city where you can only love Fashion
This year’s fashion season kicked off, and it did with Paris Menswear 2026. The Room, as a referent for men in this industry, had to be part of this week — and SO we did. From showroom visits, PR after-parties to Fashion shows of our favorites, here we render the amazing experience we lived so you can also dive into it as if you had traveled alongside us.
THE SHOWS
Fashion in Paris is fueled by the presentation of the collections. This season did not disappoint, and we were invited to witness firsthand this display of art all over the city. From the XX century Chicano ode by Willy Chavarria to the futuristic formality streetwear by Juun J, La mode spoke, and it did so loudly, the amalgama between art’s many forms was evident, but not in an obvious way, only more in an organic manner that made the shows look like living installations in motion.
JUUN J X ALPINESTARS RSRV
Juun J is all about proportions taken to the top, the brand’s viewpoint is established as a blend of informal formality and dra-ma-tic shapes. The reimagination of traditional tuxedos and suit-and-ties as something that can be both formal and informal speaks volumes about their vision in the industry, while feeling refreshing and timely relevant. The show peaked when the final looks came on the runway, introducing a big time collaboration with Alpinestars RSRV, going from structured looks to motocross wear that told everyone there present “We are Juun J and we do not fear BOLD”
WILLY CHAVARRIA: ETERNO.
Eterno, that is exactly what we wanted Willy Chavarria’s show to be. It was phenomenal, the way he managed to pull a performance of music, art, scenery, dance, and fashion will be one for the books. Some people even dare to say “Paris will always belong to Willy Chavarria” and we agree quite a lot. The inspiration for this particular collection originated in the decades from the 40s to the 90s, and Willy notes that this work is the overcoming of hate by joy with the accentuation of tailoring in his pieces, which he is lately so invested in. And the cherry on the cake was seeing Santos Bravos, 5 young men whom we have had the opportunity to style and dress before, perform on such an iconic stage. Feid, proudly Colombian, showing his “ProMax” era, and the incredible performance by Mon Laferte with Lunay, who we love to work with. Willy really understands how to bring talented latinos together.
Y-3 joins the motosport fever with Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1
The hype for motowear, motosports, and races in general has not ended in the fashion industry. We have been the eyes of this during the Y-3 fashion show, where the dynamism and amazing cuts of Yohji merge with Adidas’ expertise in sportswear. This year’s collection has another collab under the wing of Mercedes-AMG Petrona F1 team, and we are so here for it. The start had a performance of moving dancers that ultimately took the runway to simulate skate ramps that proved once again how Y-3’s minimalism is a constant masterclass of trend-setting and pushing boundaries. The best part was to see Yamamoto sitting front row, watching the whole scene unfold in the most beautifully integrated way. This collection will arrive soon, do not miss it out.
KIDSUPER: CINEMA MEETS COUTURE
The experience at the Kidsuper show was a motion picture that portrayed a man who realizes he is living in a simulated reality; it is Matrix, The fight club, and Children of Men converging to showcase creativity and energy. In the words of Colm Dillane “My costumers are growing up faster than I am…my friends are having kids on purpose, so they’re dressing really mature” that is how the thread line of the collection came to existence. The show combined leather, faux-fur, patchwork, pictoric prints with earthy tones in a way that each look was a single character of an original movie, created by Dillane where the scenery opened up to give birth to the runway. It is a stamp of Kidsuper’s impressionism while keeping it sober.
The Talents
During Fashion week, we had the pleasure of sharing with stylists of the sort of Dorian Who; we met with Frida García from Galore Magazine, we hung out with urban singer Reykon, and got to greet the forever iconic South Korean designer — Juun J. Last but not least, we also ran into the great Juntae Kim during our visit to his showroom. Paris is always so much fun, experiencing how diversity, cultures, and arts diverge here will always be something we have Room for. Stay tuned for the curated selection we are bringing from France for you.
