express their idea of excellence in craftsmanship, creativity and
modernity,” said Ralph Toledano, President of the Fédération Française de
la Couture, du prêt-à-porter des couturiers et des créateurs de mode in a
statement.“We offered a privileged access to the most prestigious events of the week
to a diverse panel of talents. By using Instagram, each of them share their
rich and unique point of view on Couture and that Paris is the worldwide
pinnacle of Fashion.” In order to boost Paris Couture Week visibility even
more on an international platform, Snapchat has also teamed up with the
Fédération. On July 5, Snapchat will unveil its first Live Story for Paris

giving a new conversation. Instagram is more curated and you can get a
whole feel for a brand. Snapchat is more behind-the-scenes,” said Emilie
Fife, senior manager of digital communications at the Council of Fashion
Designers of America’s to WWD.Photo: Dior Haute Couture AW ’16/17, Twitter
