Overview

• The aunt and niece were photographed embracing outside Tom Ford’s Spring/Summer 2026 presentation at the Pavillon Vendôme on Oct. 1 during Paris Fashion Week, led by creative director Haider Ackermann.
• Paris Jackson, 27, wore a long-sleeved black gown with a high leg slit, while Janet Jackson, 59, chose a belted leather short-sleeve top with a floor-length skirt, a leather blazer, and gold hoop earrings.
• The appearance drew interest because of longstanding chatter about their relationship, including Paris missing Janet’s 2018 Billboard Icon Award and a low-key joint photo from Paris Fashion Week in 2022.
• Representatives for both did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the encounter, according to Page Six.
• Separately, Paris recently said she is not involved in the forthcoming Michael biopic after criticizing an early script; the film, produced by estate co-executors and starring Jaafar Jackson, is scheduled for April 24, 2026.
