Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week is back, and Megan Thee Stallion is making a bold statement. Known for her love of crop tops and daisy dukes, the Houston native embraced a new look by wearing her first couture gown on Monday at the Giambattista Valli Spring/Summer 2025 Couture show, and she looked absolutely stunning.
In a front-row chat with WWD, the ‘Hot Girl’ rapper expressed her excitement, saying it was her very first couture experience and she felt incredibly beautiful in the handmade, exclusive garment.
Haute Couture, which started in 1858 by Charles Frederick Worth, was traditionally reserved for the elite, with gatekeepers ensuring it remained exclusive through invitations only. This often excluded minorities from the high fashion world. Seeing Megan in a Giambattista Valli haute couture gown is a significant moment for black women.
Her stylist, Eric Archibald, curated this gorgeous citrus look, featuring an apricot-colored hooded chiffon dress with feather details at the waist. The dress draped flawlessly around her, exuding elegance.
Megan’s makeup artist, Priscilla Ono, delivered a flawless look, perfectly complemented by celebrity hairstylist Kellon Deryck, who styled her hair. Her kiss curls were a nod to the iconic French singer and dancer Josephine Baker, adding a touch of vintage charm.
Fans and the media were captivated by Megan’s radiant appearance, and her confidence was perhaps her best accessory. Megan Thee Stallion truly stole the show at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week.
