In the heart of winter, Paris pulses to the rhythm of the runway shows. In January 2026, the capital strings together two major dates: Paris Fashion Week® Men’s Fashion from Tuesday 20 to Sunday 25 January 2026, then Haute Couture from Monday 26 to Thursday 29 January 2026 (official FHCM calendars). With short days, biting cold and a packed schedule, Hôtel R de Paris becomes your elegant cocoon in the heart of the 9th arrondissement, perfectly placed to alternate meetings, shows and “pause” returns during the day.

Official dates & calendar (keep it handy)

Timetables and formats (runway show, presentation, digital) can change right up to the last minute: the best habit is to check the FHCM provisional calendar before every trip. See the Men’s Fashion calendar • See the Haute Couture calendar.

The maisons on the bill: what to expect (and how to make the most of it)

Men’s Fashion (20–25 January): a week paced by runway shows and presentations from the great maisons and the creative scene. On the calendar you’ll find highly watched appointments (e.g., Louis Vuitton, AMI, Hermès, Rick Owens — depending on the season’s schedule). Even without an invitation, the “Fashion Week” experience also lives through digital presentations/livestreams, the atmosphere around the venues, and the comings and goings in the key districts.

Haute Couture (26–29 January): the most spectacular week, with iconic maisons (e.g., Schiaparelli opening the week on the calendar, then Dior, Chanel… depending on the official program). As shows are mostly by invitation, the smart move is to plan your agenda around broadcast slots, neighborhood life, and the best windows for your meetings.

Ideal backstage: the 9th, between Opéra, Haussmann and fast routes

From the hotel, you’re within a very comfortable distance of the right-bank “fashion” zones: Opéra / Haussmann (Grands Magasins), Vendôme and the main routes to Concorde or Champs-Élysées. The advantage: fewer transfers, more flexibility to drop off a lookbook, change outfits, or catch your breath between appointments.

The pause that changes everything: wellness & logistics

Between two intense days, treat yourself to a real reset: sauna/hammam in our fitness & spa area, then a drink at the bar-lounge to debrief. For logistics (routes, timing, nearby table reservations), the front desk is happy to help — and our digital concierge page also lets you find a curated selection of addresses and useful links around the hotel.
