\nDUBAI: From Milan to Paris, French Algerian model Loli Bahia has been gracing the runways for renowned luxury labels this month.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nThis week, the catwalk star modeled for French luxury fashion house Yves Saint Laurent at Paris Fashion Week in a show set against the backdrop of a twinkling Eiffel Tower.<\/p>\n
\nGuests, including K-Pop star Rose of Blackpink, trickled into the venue under brooding clouds as night began to fall, stopping for selfies in front of a huge, flowing water fountain, while crowds lined up on the esplanade overlooking the venue, The Associated Press reported.<\/p>\n
\nDesigner Anthony Vaccarello presented the summer collection of sleek evening wear that featured dramatic 80s shoulders, column silhouettes and hoods.<\/p>\n\n\nThe model shared a close up of her\u00a0Yves Saint Laurent look on social media. (Instagram)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\nBahia emerged from the dark, wearing a sheer floor-length black dress with a turtleneck as she made her way slowly down a broad set of stairs before marching around the fountain.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nHer look was accessorized with chunky gold bangles, large earrings and one-toed heels.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nOther looks in the fashion show included 90s designs infused with the glaringly 80s capuches that came in muted or caramel tones \u2014 hues also reminiscent of that era.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nHoods formed the base silhouette of many pared-down ensembles, which contrasted with statement gold earrings or large wooden bracelets, just like the ones Bahia wore.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nHeavy open wool coats and regal trenches, which caressed the floor, created a rectangular window frame through which to see the pants in some clever fashion theater.<\/p>\n
\nThe house founder turned the capuche into one of his most iconic styles \u2013 originally inspired by the tubular sheath donned by dancer Martha Graham for her 1930 choreography \u201cLamentation.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nParis Fashion Week kicked off on Tuesday. Saint Laurent and Dior are among some 107 brands showcasing Spring-Summer 2023 collections.<\/p>\n
\nLast week, Bahia modeled for Italian luxury label Versace during Milan Fashion Week alongside part-Arab models Gigi and Bella Hadid, Imaan Hammam and Nora Attal. Emily Ratajkowski, Paris Hilton and Irina Shayk were also among the models who walked the runway.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nBahia wore a hot-pink dress with a short bridal veil.<\/p>\n
\nBahia, who is signed to Women Management Paris, made her runway debut in 2020 at Louis Vuitton\u2019s Fall 2021 show. She would go on to star in the Parisian luxury house\u2019s advertising campaign for Fall 2021.<\/p>\n
\nShe has also featured in campaigns for Saint Laurent, Courreges and Max Mara in addition to starring on the cover of Vogue Italia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
