This was Alexa Demie’s first time attending a Chanel runway show, and she picked haute couture week in Paris to do it. On July 7 she took the front row at the house’s fall 2026 couture presentation in a slinky black halter-neck dress, a drop-waist draping effect gathered and held by a floral bedazzled brooch.

She skipped the polish the label is known for and reached for Coco Chanel’s oldest signature instead: the little black dress. Her glam matched the restraint, a tousled face-framing updo, minimal makeup, dangling silver earrings, and dark shades.

It’s a long way from Maddy Perez, the Euphoria character built on sharp eyeliner and slicked-back hair. Demie has sat front row before, debuting micro-bangs at Balenciaga’s fall 2022 show, but this was her first with Chanel.
