At Paris Men’s Fashion Week in June, the clothes are hot, but the parties are even hotter. We’re talking steamy, sweaty, all-the-coolest-people-you’ve-ever-seen-in-one-room hot—and no other function had the proverbial temps rising like our annual Thursday night bash hosted by GQ global editorial director Will Welch and Levi’s. It’s our favorite Fashion Week tradition.
This season, we returned to swanky Saint-Germain restaurant La Société to party with the likes of Pusha T, Lucky Blue Smith, Adam DiMarco, Stefon Diggs, Tyshawn Jones, Paloma Elsesser, Archie Madekwe, Laura Harrier, 2hollis, Nettspend, and many more. Guests imbibed Belvedere cocktails as they boogied along to DJ sets by Kitty Ca$h, Acyde, and Zack Bia, who naturally brought a special surprise guest: Yeat. There’s still plenty more fashion to be seen in the City of Lights this week, but the GQ party is always an ideal reprieve to let off some midweek steam.
