Overview

• On Oct. 5, Michael Rider presented his second Celine collection on an open-air runway in the Parc de Saint-Cloud outside Paris.
• Scarves moved from accessory to architecture, used as structural elements in dresses, tops, trenches and totes that framed the season’s design language.
• Seventies-inflected florals and A-line minis contrasted with sharp menswear, including oversized double-breasted suits, skinny trousers and tailored separates.
• Show signatures included Celine-branded cycling helmets, multicolored banded arm socks, color-block panels and scarf invitations that reinforced the theme.
• Coverage emphasized continuity over rupture and noted a quick commercial cadence, with Rider’s June debut already reaching select stores ahead of this show.
