Paris Fashion Week FW 2012 Schedule

Paris Fashion Week is right around the corner, commencing on the 18th January. As such we're drawing ever closer to the unveiling of the Fall/Winter 2012 collections. It's probably my favourite of the 4 major weeks because many of my favourites are showing.

What I'm excited about is who will helm Givenchy's collection ever since John Galliano fell from grace early last year, it is also interesting to see that both that show and his eponymous label are showing almost back to back. I'm interested to see what Mugler and Nicola Formachetti have to offer after he, at least for me, disappointed since becoming Creative Director in September 2010. 

The Friday and Saturday are looking to be crackers with showings from: Dior Homme on Saturday, under the direction of Kris Van Assche (who also shows on Friday); Antwerp 6 member Anne Demeulemeester and Junya Watanabe.

You can expect retrospective coverage of our personal highlights once the shows have finished.

Take a look at the schedule after the jump:
