Did you guess Solange?
PARIS (AP) — Knowles had top fashion editors grumpily peering at their watches at Carven’s morning show — sauntering in 30 minutes late Thursday.
The stylish U.S. singer’s late arrival comes just hours after rapper Kanye West held things up at Dries Van Noten’s show.
The new question: Is being fashionably late at Paris Fashion Week now an intentional thing, done to avoid dangerous media scrums in the digital age and allow top celebrities easy entry into shows?
Here are the highlights of Thursday’s ready-to-wear fall-winter 2015 shows in Paris, including reports for Balmain and Carven.
SO LATE, SOLANGE
Beyonce’s cooler, younger sister was immediately forgiven for her tardy entry into Carven’s show — rocking a wild, trendy weave with center parting, a bold red faux fur coat, a geometric lined turtle neck and a daring split skirt.
Knowles’ eclectic personal style is already much admired in the French capital. In January, she was chosen as the new face of Elevenparis, for whom she’ll perform a DJ set Thursday night.
“DJing should be fun. But I’m here in Paris to take inspiration in the styles that are so different from New York,” she told The AssociatedPress, acknowledging she thought the Parisian style was more refined and natural that in her native U.S.
“Paris is different to New York, definitely. There’s a more defined and refined look here. I love the makeup. It’s so much more natural,” she added.
