The multifaceted Paris Hilton, 45, is one of the sensations of this year’s Paris Fashion Week, which ends this Wednesday, October 6, with her homage to Karl Lagerfeld (1933-2019), who was her personal friend and the brand of which she is the face for the third time in the new global campaign for this fall 2026, in addition to her presence at some shows, such as the Elie Saab presentation.
In an informal encounter with international press during a party to celebrate the reinauguration of the brand’s store on Boulevard Saint-Germain, Paris assured us that she is an tireless follower of the designer’s legacy who died in 2019 and whose brand has been artistically steered for years by the creativity of the Korean Hun Kim (exclusive interview in MUJERHOY, one of the few she has granted), with whom Paris posed at the party and with whom she has a very good relationship.
“I’m a big admirer of everything Karl represents. And I love the brand, the honest way it conveys its legacy, in an incredible, beautiful, very Karl,” she confessed upon arriving at the event, dressed in a black and silver lurex knit set, a black skirt and a bag that she particularly likes. “I love it,” she said, showing it to the cameras.

However, Paris also says she likes to vary her image: “I love having fun with fashion, I carry it in my heart. And I like to experiment with all kinds of looks, from pop star to maternal look.”
The model, singer, actress or DJ is mother of two children, Phoenix and London, both born in 2023 through surrogate gestation and with several months between them, and she says that her style and personality change with the years: “They evolve with me. Now that I am a mom and I do many things, I have different facets and I love to explore”.

Following her wedding to businessman and writer Carter Reum in 2021 and the arrival of her children, Paris said while posing: “I am happy in my life”. At the after-party, the exhibition A Tribute to Karl Lagerfeld: The White Shirt Project was also inaugurated, a collection of white shirts, one of the designer’s hallmarks, customized by various personalities from the fashion world, such as Cara Delevingne, Amber Valletta or Carine Roitfeld.
Also Paris presented hers, which features a portrait of Lagerfeld with his cat Choupette on the back embroidered in black sequins and with a border of white pearls. Choupette was the cat to whom Lagerfeld left an inheritance of about 170 million euros and which, today, is cared for by Françoise Caçote, who was also Lagerfeld’s caregiver and housekeeper for years.
