Not that anyone doubted it, but even the VIP guests who sat front row at the show, which was staged in a dark room on the Champs Elysees, were in wide variety. From film stars Winona Ryder and Harris Dickinson (the brand\u2019s latest ambassadors) to Elizabeth Debicki and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/culture\/naomi-watts-love-story-premiere-makeup\">Naomi Watts<\/a> (who attended with her model daughter Kai Schrieber) to the hottest talent on television including Hudson Williams of <em>Heated Rivalry<\/em> fame, Rachel Sennot, Josh Hutcherson, and <em>Euphoria<\/em>\u2019s Anna Van Patten, Chloe Cherry, and Priscilla Delgado, Piccioli certainly has support in all the right places.<\/p>\n<p>Whether or not it was Piccioli himself or the show\u2019s set, a collaboration with <em>Euphoria <\/em>director Sam Levinson, that drew the A-list crowd, they were served up a feast of a collection that was more than worth their while. The first nine looks were done in black leather and wool, for the most part similar in vibe to the Italian designer\u2019s celebrated debut last September, which proved to be a sophisticated shift away from the streetwear and athleisure that dominated the house under Piccioli\u2019s predecessor Demna Gvaslia. This season though, Piccioli threw the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/fashion\/demna-gucci-debut-fall-winter-2026\">Demna<\/a> Balenciaga stan a bone or two, with a graphic hoodie styled with leather opera gloves and studded brogues, perhaps a nod to his roots at Valentino. Also sprinkled in were a few pairs of chunky statement sneakers, crystallized futuristic sunglasses, and the beloved Rodeo and City Bags, the latter of which was decorated with luminous colored shadows and dubbed the Midnight City.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"DbX\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"B1N\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"QfP\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"qmt pm7\">\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model walks the runway during the Balenciaga Ready to Wear Fall\/Winter 2026\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/3\/7\/112bd36d\/paris-france-march-07.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Victor VIRGILE\/Gamma-Rapho\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model walks the runway during the Balenciaga Ready to Wear Fall\/Winter 2026\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/3\/7\/a31961fb\/paris-france-march-07.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Victor VIRGILE\/Gamma-Rapho\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-454608870\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"olh\">1\/2<\/div>\n<div class=\"xCo\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button><button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Throughout the show, there was a spotlight on outerwear in a handful of silhouettes and materials, including a leather and shearling bomber jacket, a hot pink cocoon coat, a cropped army green parka, and an ombre fur. The parka and fur were paired with perfectly tailored, high-waisted jeans, and two new handbag styles. While those looks could be considered daywear, Piccioli also delivered in the eveningwear category, with gowns that are likely to be snatched up by celebrity stylists ahead of the Oscars and its corresponding after parties next week. Case in point: a burgundy velvet, draped midi dress with a sexy side cut-out, an emerald green sparkly mini, and the finale numbers that glistened under the lights like \u201cclair obscur,\u201d the High Renaissance artistic technique cited as inspiration in the the brand\u2019s show notes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"DbX\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"B1N\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"QfP\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"qmt pm7\">\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model walks the runway during the Balenciaga Ready to Wear Fall\/Winter 2026\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/3\/8\/65cd93ab\/paris-france-march-07.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Victor VIRGILE\/Gamma-Rapho\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model walks the runway during the Balenciaga Ready to Wear Fall\/Winter 2026\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/3\/8\/c893924f\/paris-france-march-07.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Victor VIRGILE\/Gamma-Rapho\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-454608871\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"olh\">1\/2<\/div>\n<div class=\"xCo\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button><button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>No matter the time of day or the occasion, Piccioli clearly set out to show the wide range of individuals who love bearing the Balenciaga name that he sees them. \u201cI am deeply interested in people, in the narratives they carry, in the complex intertwining paths that shape their lives. In their stories,\u201d Piccoli stated in a post-runway press release. \u201cThis has always informed and shaped my work, my creative approach.
