It was another busy fashion week in Paris, with parties, shows and memorable moments that will keep us inspired until the Fall 2023 season begins. One lucky onlooker that was on-hand for it all was Pritika Swarup. The supermodel, founder and CEO of Prakti Beauty, and Global Ambassador of Operation Smile, attended swanky soirées, fêted designers at afterparties, and took in all the action from the front row. Now, she’s sharing the best moments from her whirlwind week in an exclusive photo diary with GRAZIA USA.

See how the multi-hyphenate entrepreneur spent her time in the city of lights and all the show-stopping looks she wore along the way. Whether rocking super-short Miu Miu mini skirts or totally sheer Mônot gowns, she turned heads everywhere she went.

Check out her diary below, where she also shared a sneak peek of her upcoming collaboration with lio Smeraldo.

Checking In

“Upon arriving at the Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris, I made sure I took in Paris before the craziness began. Here I am staying cozy in Falconeri. I could live in their cashmere!”

“Day 1 of Fashion Week is always spent in fittings! My stylist Mickael Carpin and I work together to capture the essence of each designer I wear while putting our own twist on the look. Here we are putting together a look for the Christian Louboutin show later in the week.”

Mini Moment
