Inside Americans in Paris at PFW

October 2, 2024

The Americans in Paris showroom made a triumphant return to Paris Fashion Week after a hiatus. The participating designers – Christopher John Rogers, Rachel Scott for Diotima, Henry Zankov for Zankov, Tanner Richie and Fletcher Kasell of Tanner Fletcher, Akua Shabaka for House of Aama, Alejandra Alonso Rojas, Conley Averett of Judy Turner, and Kim Shui – used the two days as an opportunity to connect with international editors and buyers while building community among themselves.

After the kickoff at the residence of the U.S. Ambassador to Paris, Denise Bauer, they convened at the stunning space on Place des Victoires, proudly supported by Instagram, to show their Spring 2025 collections.

The first day kicked off with an Americans in Breakfast Showroom Breakfast hosted by Eva Chen and the Instagram Fashion Team and attended by content creators including Jake Fleming (@jake.fleming), Zoi Fish (@zoifish), Luke Meagher (@hautelamode), Hanan Besovic (@ideservecouture), Beka Gvishiani (@stylenotcom), and Kim Russell (@thekimbino).
