In the era of social distancing, the global fashion industry is forced to accelerate even faster towards digitisation and must rely on innovative alternatives to physical fashion week presentations.  This season, in a context of regulated deconfinement, the cities of London, Paris and Milan are opting for an entirely digital Fashion Week. The English capital opened the ball rolling on Friday 12 June 2020 by orchestrating the very first digital rendez-vous dedicated to the presentation of British collections. 

With a progressive deconfinement, Paris based museums, both small and large, are reopening with new sanitary measures in place. While Covid-19 still circules, the French capital prepares for a summer cultural season never the less.  Cultural institutions, closed since mid-March, regardless of their size, have all had to reflect on how to reopen in the context of Covid-19, allowing for a gradual return to cultural life in Paris.
