Previously studio design director for the French fashion house, her first collection will walk at Paris Fashion Week this October. She told WWD: “We don’t want to say no to performance artists like Lady Gaga [who wore pieces from Manish Arora’s first collection for the house] because obviously that is part of [the Paco Rabanne] universe, but that is not the only reason we are here … We also want to appeal to women who don’t necessarily want to be living sculptures.”
