“Fashion is a team sport,” Mark Guiducci, Vogue’s creative editorial director, told Chloe and Chioma this morning in the Vogue Paris offices. And it was a sentiment that couldn’t have felt truer at Vogue World: Paris last night. For its third iteration, Vogue World traveled this year to the iconic Place Vendôme in the 1st arrondissement, where there were runway walks, musical entertainments, athletic demonstrations, dancing, and more—the best of fashion and culture rolled into one spectacular evening.
To recap the event and explain all the looks, The Run-Through’s hosts spoke not only to Mark, but also Vogue World’s stylists: Carine Roitfeld, editor-in-chief of CR Fashion Book, and Ib Kamara, creative director of Off-White and editor-in-chief of Dazed. The vision for the event was to pair a sport—think cycling, tennis, horseback riding, and others—with a decade in French fashion, and Carine and Ib worked closely with fashion historian Alexandre Samson to survey styles from across the last century. (Adding the perfect finishing touch to each look, meanwhile, was beauty queen Dame Pat McGrath, who did the makeup.)
