Claire Sulmers, the CEO of Fashion Bomb, transitioned from being an eager spectator outside Paris Fashion Week to becoming a recognized insider, attending some of the event’s most prestigious shows.
After concluding New York Fashion Week, where she co-hosted the annual Bomb Fashion Show with Nene Leakes, Sulmers swiftly made her way to Paris, the city known for its exquisite croissants and rich escargot.
Her first show in Paris this season was Givenchy, where she donned a black patent leather bodysuit from the brand, complete with a matching belt and stiletto boots. She finished the look with a leather cropped Moto jacket.
Following the Givenchy show, she changed into a $2,140 black leather maxi dress by Rick Owens and layered it with a black Moto jacket by Kwame Adusei. Complementing the outfit, she wore silver metallic stiletto boots and oversized sunglasses.
The next day, Claire opted for some color, stepping out in an amaranth pink Rick Owens bodycon dress and a brown snakeskin trench coat by The Attico. She accessorized with bronze metallic lace-up sandals and YSL tortoise sunglasses.
During her trip, Sulmers also enjoyed a lunch with friends at L’Avenue, including Nicole Babb, Jean-Claude Jitrois of Jitrois Paris, and designers Bruce & Glen from Fashion Bomb Daily Shop.
For the Akris show, which featured plenty of florals and fringe, Claire returned to her signature black, wearing a Harbison Studio dress adorned with bold gold buttons. She later mentioned her appreciation for the fringed skirts and the new asymmetrical silhouettes at Givenchy.
Reuniting with her New York friend Priya Shukla in Paris, Sulmers donned pointed-toe heels and gold statement earrings, posing in front of the city’s stunning architectural landmarks.
On her final night in Paris, she attended a Kilian Paris party celebrating their new fragrance ‘Smoking Hot’. She wore a $1,175 Rick Owens strapless iridescent gown, metallic boots, and carried a mini Hermes handbag. Celebrating with Bruce & Glen and other friends, she ended her trip on a high note.
Throughout the week, Sulmers showcased her evolution into a leading fashion figure, continually proving herself as a significant presence in the fashion world.
