"The Fashion Season: Paris" will follow Klass as she hops over to the Parisian catwalks, having a conversation with Etienne Russo, one of the largest fashion show producers, who over the past 20 years has worked with the biggest fashion houses in the world, including Lanvin, Miu Miu and Chanel.

The report will unfold as Russo prepares for the Kenzo and Lanvin shows. Klass will also meet with the editor of Vogue China, Angelica Cheung, to discover which designers are making it big in the world’s largest luxury market; and finally there will be a story about fashion bloggers, including the Russian blogger Miroslava Duma of Buro 24/7.
