British fashion made a statement in Paris with NADINE MERABI’s first European runway show.
We attended this spectacular event, which featured an unforgettable show and a collection celebrating glamour, boldness and self confidence. Founded in Manchester in 2015, the luxury ready to wear brand is opening a new chapter in its history, presenting a more comprehensive vision of its wardrobe, designed to accompany women far beyond special occasions.
A meaningful Paris runway debut
For NADINE MERABI, Paris represents much more than another milestone in its international development. The French capital, which has already featured in several of the brand’s iconic campaigns, was a natural choice for unveiling its creative ambitions. Combining emotion, elegance and energy, this first European runway show celebrates ten years of creativity while establishing a new direction for the brand.
At the helm of the fashion house, Nadine Merabi has followed an unconventional path. A former England hockey player, she taught herself to sew before launching her brand. Her original ambition was simple: to create occasionwear that could evoke genuine emotion. Since then, her distinctive aesthetic has gained recognition through signature silhouettes, luxurious fabrics and meticulous craftsmanship.
A collection balancing glamour and modernity
Presented through 30 looks, the collection reveals a new dimension of NADINE MERABI. While eveningwear remains central to the brand’s identity, its wardrobe is expanding to include leather separates, coats and designs created for different moments in a woman’s life.
Black meets gold, ruby red contrasts with silver and champagne, while touches of electric cobalt blue bring energy to the collection. Metallic fringing, sequins, intricate floral embellishments and hand finished details add texture and movement to the designs. Sculpted dresses sit alongside fluid silhouettes and sharply tailored pieces, creating a look that feels both powerful and feminine.
Beyond the garments themselves, the runway experience left a lasting impression. We discovered a spectacular world brought to life through memorable staging and infectious energy. The show perfectly reflected the designer’s ambition to make every appearance a celebration of individuality and self expression.
A clear international ambition
The Paris presentation forms part of an ongoing European expansion strategy, reinforced by the opening of a dedicated European warehouse in April 2025. The brand now aims to build a more complete wardrobe that accompanies women from everyday life to the most exceptional occasions, without compromising its signature glamour.
For Nadine Merabi, Paris marks the beginning of a new adventure rather than a final destination. The fashion house intends to continue expanding while preserving the elements behind its success: precise cuts, meticulous attention to detail and the ability to transform an outfit into a powerful statement of confidence.
A new era for NADINE MERABI
With its first European runway show in Paris, NADINE MERABI has made a memorable entrance onto the city’s fashion scene. Through bold designs, exceptional craftsmanship and an unforgettable show, the British fashion house presents a vision in which clothing becomes a means of self expression and empowerment.
A new chapter is unfolding for the brand, guided by a clear ambition: to bring its signature glamour beyond special occasions and accompany women through every aspect of their lives.
