Aishwarya was among the highlights of Paris Fashion Week on Sept 28, when she walked the ramp at L’Oréal Paris’s “Express Your Worth” showcase.

She closed the Le Défilé show at Place Joffre, with the Eiffel Tower and École Militaire providing the backdrop.

For the event, Aishwarya wore a custom all-black outfit by Syrian luxury label Yara Shoemaker. The look was styled by celebrity stylist Mohit Rai.

Speaking to Variety India about reuniting with Aishwarya, Simone said they enjoy catching up whenever they meet backstage.

“We don’t get to spend much time together throughout the year, so it’s always really nice when we’re reunited and can catch up with each other,” she said.

Simone, who was walking for L’Oréal Paris for the third time, said she was excited to be part of the event and described it as “one of the most fun days of the year.”
