The evenings in the city are starting again with the back-to-school season. And this Thursday evening, in Paris, the atmosphere was festive around the Palais Garnier.
The program for the opening of the new 2023-2024 dance season included a parade by the Ballet followed by “Singularités plurielles” by Nicolas Paul, “The Last Call” by Marion Motin, “Horizon” by Xie Xin1023, and “The Seasons’ Canon” by Crystal Pite. Sponsored by Chanel, Rolex, and Taittinger Champagnes, the evening was attended by a crowd of stars.
For example, we saw Charlotte Casiraghi, the daughter of Caroline de Monaco and the late Stefano Casiraghi. At 37 years old, the young mother of Raphaël and Balthazar made a sensation in a long sequined Chanel dress, of which she is one of the ambassadors. Cécile Cassel, an actress and singer and sister of Vincent Cassel, was also dressed by the double C brand, which caught the eye of Brigitte Macron and Queen Camille, also this week. On her side, the lovely Géraldine Nakache showed off her beautiful legs in Sportmax.
On site, we also saw Marine Vacth, Clémence Poésy, Rebecca Mardner, Golshifteh Farahani, Ana Girardot, Elodie Bouchez, and Rossy de Palma, who all attended the Gala, accompanied by Mehdi Kerkouche, Panayotis Pascot, and Pio Marmai, on the men’s side.
The festivities will continue very soon at the Opéra de Paris, on the other side of the city. Indeed, on September 27, the 28 resident artists will open the season of the Academy at the Amphithéâtre Olivier Messiaen of the Opéra Bastille. The program includes a concert featuring the works of Mozart and Gluck. “An opportunity for the public to discover the artists who will shape the future of opera,” according to the official statement.
