PARIS: Two of the main events in the fashion calendar — Paris men’s fashion week and the haute couture shows — scheduled for June and July have been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic, organizers said on Friday.
“Strong decisions are required to ensure the safety and health of (fashion) houses, their employees and everyone working in our industry,” the Federation de la Haute Couture et de la Mode said in a statement.
“The board of directors ... has come to the decision that, in the present conditions, the menswear Paris Fashion Week, scheduled from June 23-28, 2020, and the Haute Couture Week, scheduled from July 5-9, 2020, cannot take place,” it said.
“However, the Federation is actively working with its members on possible alternatives,” it added without giving further details.
Meanwhile, Italy’s fashion industry body said on Friday the men’s fashion shows scheduled for June 19-23 would be held in September at the same time as the women’s shows due to the coronavirus pandemic.
