    Get as much rest as you can this summer: the official Paris Fashion Week schedule is out and it’s packed like a summer suitcase.

    Altogether, the Spring 2026 women’s ready-to-wear calendar, which will run from September 29 to October 7, features a total of 76 shows and 36 presentations—compared to a respective 66 and 40 during the spring 2025 season. Jonathan Anderson’s womenswear debut at Dior (following his men’s show in June) will take place on October 1 at 2:30pm, while Matthieu Blazy’s much-anticipated first show at Chanel will be held on October 6 at 8pm.

    As previously reported, it’s a high-stakes season with an unprecedented number of designer debuts against a backdrop of an industry downturn. Will these renewed creative visions help the industry to rebound?

    There’s an impressive number of brands returning to the calendar. They include Thom Browne (who hasn’t shown during ready-to-wear in Paris since September 2022), Lanvin (which chose the eve of couture for Peter Copping’s debut last season), Vetements and Agnès b. The flurry of debuts include Loewe, Jean Paul Gaultier, Carven and Mugler. There are also the ‘half debuts’: the first ready-to-wear show of Glenn Martens at Margiela after impressing with his couture and Michael Rider’s summer 2026 collection at Celine after his July co-ed debut, which was a “spring” (or resort) collection, per the house verbiage. “I believe in the calendar,” Rider said backstage in July. (His predecessor Hedi Slimane had been showing mostly off-calendar via a video format.)
