Paris Fashion Week returns tomorrow, bringing some much-needed light relief to a country in the throes of political chaos.

Menswear week runs until next Sunday, followed immediately by the haute couture shows until June 27.

France has been in turmoil since President Emmanuel Macron called surprise legislative elections after a surge by the far-right in European polls.

A dress worn by Diana, Princess of Wales in 1985 has been sold at auction for 11 times its estimated price, BBC has reported.

The black, ballerina-length velvet evening dress was sold at Julien's Auctions in Hollywood for a total of $1,148,080. It has broken a new fashion record as the most expensive dress, worn by Diana, sold at auction.

Menswear proved to be in reinvigorated form as Paris Fashion Week ended on June 26 with spectacle, innovation and the return of big-name designers to the catwalk.

The week concluded with the surprising return of fabled French designer Hedi Slimane, formerly of Dior and Saint Laurent and now with Celine. Two years ago, he had announced he was done with the official fashion calendar.

French couture house Givenchy, owned by luxury goods giant LVMH (LVMH.PA) and known for once dressing Hollywood stars such as Audrey Hepburn, said on June 15 it had named Matthew Williams as its new creative director.

The day it became clear that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are engaged, the world knew that something unacceptable so far will happen in the royal family.

She is an American actress and divorced older than the prince, in other words, there are all conditions that marriage should not take place.

The British Prince Harry and the American actress Megan got married at the Windsor Castle. During the wedding, there were 600 guests.

The two of them exchanged marriage vows and rings.

Meghan Markel's dress was made by the British designer Clare Waight Keller, the first female artistic director of the French fashion house "Givenchy".
