runway shows
Models parade clothing
Runway shows are fashion presentations where models walk a narrow elevated platform to display a designer's new collection.
The format—models parading one after another before seated audiences—has become the standard unveiling event for haute couture and ready-to-wear lines: Paris Fashion Week features dozens of runway shows.
The term distinguishes live catwalk presentations from lookbooks or showroom appointments.
