Sofia Coppola and the Parisian Ball
The filmmaker appointed as artistic director
Sofia Coppola, the cult director and screenwriter, has been appointed artistic director of the first summer Bal d’Été, which will take place on July 6, 2025. The ball will pay tribute to the centenary of the 1925 International Exhibition of Decorative Arts and will open Haute Couture Week.
This year, the event is part of an initiative to promote French culture. Coppola is overseeing the ball’s visual concept, bringing together film, fashion, music, and design in a unified artistic statement.
The goal of the event is to support the museum and attract a new generation. The evening will begin with a reception for families, and later the doors will open to students studying fashion and design, creating a space for dialogue between tradition and the future.
