Scheduled to take place on July 2nd, the cancellation of Celine Homme Summer 24 in Paris comes as a disappointment to fans, fashion enthusiasts, and industry insiders who were eagerly looking forward to witnessing the latest collection from Celine. However, the primary concern remains the safety and well-being of all attendees, including guests.
The decision to cancel the show was prompted by the escalating riots ignited by the death of a teenager caused by the police.
Hedi Slimane expressed concerns on Instagram in French, stating that organizing a fashion show in Paris during a time when France and its capital are grieving and suffering seems inappropriate and out of place.
France has experienced a series of protests spanning four nights in response to the tragic death of Nahel M., a teenager who was fatally shot by a police officer after refusing to comply with a stop request while driving his car.
The presence of BTS V and Park Bo Gum added an extra layer of excitement and anticipation to the Celine Homme Summer 24 show. However, due to the cancellation, their participation will have to be put on hold for now.
V had already embarked on his journey to Paris on the morning of June 30th. Similarly, Park Bo Gum, the beloved actor, set off for Paris on the morning of July 1st.
