Paris Fashion Week
is a whirlwind. With back-to-back shows and parties that last into the
wee hours, it can be an overwhelming experience even for seasoned
attendees. But for first-timer Sofia Carson, the mayhem made for nonstop
fun. As the star of the Descendants films
and a musician with a catchy single, “Back to Beautiful,” Carson is the
latest in a long line of multitaskers to emerge from Disney, one whose
personal style is also worthy of the spotlight. While other stars are
busy with the latest in athleisure, Carson displays a refreshingly
polished look. She cites old Hollywood icons, such as Audrey Hepburn and
Grace Kelly, as inspirations and name-checks sophisticated designers,
including Giambattista Valli and Mugler’s David Koma as favorites.
At just 23, Carson already knows her Akris from
her Alaïa and speaks of fashion shows with the
passion of a true
devotee. “It’s so different feeling the energy of being in the room and
watching the models walk past you,” says Carson. “It’s a whole different
experience from watching the collection online or looking at pictures
on Instagram.” Carson made the most of her time in Paris with a fully
booked schedule that included tea with Monique Lhuillier, who designed
her princess-y Oscars dress, and trips to local hotspots like L’Avenue
and Hôtel Costes.Working with stylist Jeff K.
Kim, Carson pulled together a stunning wardrobe of attention-grabbing
dresses and statement outerwear for the week. Here, Carson shares the
story behind each look and the runway pieces she can’t wait to wear.
