FASHION IS ON THE PROGRAMME AT FRANCE 24
Follow Haute Couture during Fashion Week and Fashion all year round on FRANCE 24
To mark Paris Fashion Week, FRANCE 24 will broadcast Haute Couture daily on its French, English and Arabic channels, from the 27th of June to the 6th of July 2008.
The programme is innovative as it offers, from 9:25am (Paris time), a roundup of the previous day’s most significant Men’s Fashion and Haute Couture shows, mixing images, interviews with designers and analysis. The programme is repeated throughout the day and is available online on the FRANCE24.com websites the same day.
“Fashion is an integral part of culture. And culture is an integral part of the news, in the same way that the economy is. For this reason, FRANCE 24, the French news channel, dedicates its airwaves to this important vector of French acclaim and influence around the world”, explains Gérard Saint-Paul, COO in charge of news and programming.
Jean-Paul Gaultier, Yohji Yamamoto, John Galliano, Givenchy, Dior, Lanvin, Paul Smith, Agnès B., Chanel, Christian Lacroix as well as young designers are on the programme for this essential rendez-vous of the Paris Fashion Week on FRANCE 24.
The programme Haute Couture is sponsored for the second time by the fashion magazine ELLE.
Elsewhere on the FRANCE 24 schedule, the world of fashion is explored in Fashion, a weekly programme that offers an original and theme-based approach: the headhunters specialised in recruiting designers, women’s shoes, fur or corsets… All the industry’s secrets, both big and small are revealed to us as we discover behind the scenes of the fashion world. First broadcast on Thursdays at 6:50 p.m.
MEDIA TV, a young production company, produces these programmes for FRANCE 24. MEDIA TV, with Pascal Mourier as Editor, will attend the Paris shows daily and cover all the major events of the week when Paris becomes fashion capital of the world.
