Brooks Nader, Josephine Skriver, Leyna Bloom and More Rule Paris Fashion Week

Fashion month has officially ended in the City of Love and SI Swimsuit was in on the action.


As with everything, all good things must come to an end. After New York, London and Milan, fashion month culminated with a week of shows in Paris. Sports Illustrated Swimsuit models like Ashley Graham, Josephine Skriver and Kelsey Merritt headed to the City of Love to take over the runways and front rows for legendary designers like Balenciaga, Victoria Beckham, Elie Saab and Valentino to name a few.

Temperatures may be cooling down, but these women gave us something to look forward to as they previewed the Spring/Summer 2023 collections. Keep scrolling for some of our best moments and showstopping looks.
