Paris Hilton isn’t just having a moment — she’s rewriting the script. Karl Lagerfeld has tapped the OG Y2K It-girl for its Fall/Winter 2025 campaign, aptly titled “From Paris With Love.” And honestly, who better to embody Lagerfeld’s blend of glam and edge than the woman who turned Juic

Shot in striking black and white by photographer Chris Colls (his third outing for the brand), the campaign frames Hilton through a fresh lens: polished, rebellious, and undeniably Paris. The visuals pull at Lagerfeld’s signature house codes while giving us a dose of Hilton’s unmistakable sparkle — it’s heritage meets hot pink energy, minus the hot pink.

It’s a full-circle fashion moment too. Two decades ago, Hilton was a cultural reset in her own right — sequin dresses, velour, tiny handbags that barely fit a flip phone. Now? She’s a businesswoman, mother, DJ, activist, and, as CEO Pier Paolo Righi puts it, someone who, like Karl himself, has “defined eras in their own distinct ways.”Hilton agrees. “I’ve always admired his rebellious spirit,” she says. “To be part of Karl’s world, especially in this campaign which celebrates individuality and playfulness, feels like such a natural fit.”

And she’s right. Hilton’s brand of boldness is exactly what fashion is craving right now. This campaign isn’t just a glossy ad — it’s a love letter to authenticity, self-expression, and a reminder that Paris Hilton really did walk so today’s influencers could run.

Mark your diaries: the campaign rollout culminates in a Paris Fashion Week show on October 1, 2025. Expect drama, sophistication, and maybe even a wink of Y2K nostalgia.
