This 85-Year-Old Model Was Queen of the Runway at Guo Pei's Couture Show

Paris Haute Couture Week snuck up on us faster than ever this season, but we're not complaining. After watching Dior's Maria Grazia Chiuri send models through a lush garden in tulle gowns and tailored suits, we were eager for more. Thankfully, we didn't have to wait long. Designers sent It models down the runway in more masterful creations all week long.

Karl Lagerfeld had girl-of-the-moment Lily-Rose Depp close the Chanel show in a blush-pink bridal gown we'll never forget. Though this scene was likely one of the most 'grammed so far, there are many more can't-miss moments to catch up on. Scroll through to catch up on the most important moments, then gear up for next month's host of fashion shows.

They took decades-old pieces from vintage gowns and cocktail dresses and used them to create collages on a new piece. Both designers were inspired by Kintsugi, a type of Japanese pottery where broken pieces are repaired together, and you can clearly see elements of that in the runway looks.
