Content creator and podcaster Jake Shane shares a behind-the-scenes look at his time in Paris for the Dior Men summer 2027 show.

How is your first time at Paris Fashion Week?

“Not only is it my first time attending Paris Fashion Week, but it’s my first time ever in Paris. I’m experiencing it in the best way possible… though it is quite hot. Of course I would get here during one of the worst heat waves in over a decade.”

Tell us about your look for the Dior show? How did you select it?

“Even the energy during my fitting was contagious. I wore the first outfit I tried on out of three — it was an immediate yes. I loved the white on white, and then I paired it with cool sunglasses. I love Dior sunglasses. What struck me the most was how immediately comfortable I felt in it. I barely had to ‘zhuzh’ it at all. It just felt perfect to me.”

Who did you sit with at the show and who did you get to meet?

“I sat with an incredible fashion documentarian, Loïc Prigent, who was telling me all about the different documentaries he has gotten to make. I was also across from Yung Lean, who I think is one of the coolest people ever. I was very starstruck.”

Favorite thing to do in Paris?

“Drink and smoke with my friends.”

How does wearing Dior make you feel?

“Accepted, confident, and happy.”

What’re the rest of your summer plans?

“I have my brother’s wedding next week, and then I’m coming back to Paris in July for a bit. I’m excited to spend even more time here and hopefully find a French boyfriend. I’m also recording new episodes of my podcast ‘Therapuss,’ which you can watch on Netflix and Spotify.”
