Nomalanga Shozi brings back her signature afro for Paris fashion event
Nomalanga Shozi has revived her signature afro for H&M’s ELIE SAAB collaboration event in Paris, where she wore a sequined H&M Studio dress ahead of the collection’s South African launch on October 22, 2026.
Celine Dion delivered a stunning surprise performance at the start of Paris Fashion Week, serenading a captivated audience beneath the iconic Eiffel Tower. The Canadian music icon strutted down the runway during L'Oreal's annual show finale, donning a sleek black dress that left the crowd in awe. As she belted out her 2002 hit "I'm Alive," the star-studded lineup of L'Oreal ambassadors - including Viola Davis, Simone Ashley, Aja Naomi King, and Eva Longoria - erupted in applause.
Dion's return to the spotlight comes after a period of relative silence, with the Quebec-born singer recently embarking on a 26-show tour in Paris. The tour, which includes 16 performances from September to October and another 10 slated for May 2027, marks a triumphant comeback for the iconic artist. Paris Fashion Week, showcasing women's spring-summer collections, continues until October 6.
With fashion heavyweights Dior, Tom Ford, Schiaparelli, and Givenchy yet to unveil their latest creations, Dion may yet grace the front row of upcoming high-profile shows.
