Paradis and KidSuper's Coffee Table Book Signing
Paradis will stage a show on January 21, just a few days after its founder Emeric Tchatchoua was made Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et Lettres. KidSuper's Colm Dillane, who is showing on Saturday, will sign his coffee table book, The Misadventures of Kidsuper, at cocktail bar Cravan.
American Designer Willy Chavarria Returns

There's also Kiko Kostadinov, whose eponymous label is turning 10; Magliano by Luca Magliano, winner of LVMH's Karl Lagerfeld Prize in 2023; and Véronique Nichanian, who will present her Hermès swansong at 8 pm.
