Chantalle Ng would sum up her Paris Fashion Week experience with three words: wonder, exhilaration and gratitude. The Singaporean actress travelled to the French capital back in September to attend the Spring/Summer 2025 fashion presentations, joining countless celebrities and style stars from around the world.
September marked the start of fall in Paris, and Ng welcomed the change in season. “The weather was perfect,” she tells GRAZIA Singapore. “It wasn’t too cold and I could layer all my outfits without breaking a sweat. It got very rainy in Paris as well, but I think that made it even more romantic.”
Indeed, the weather worked in Ng’s favour: she could strut around the French city in elegant coats and knee-high boots, and show off her finest fall outfits. Her stylish looks also came with a special touch: the actress wore custom press-on nails that were made for the different fashion shows that she was attending.
Below, Ng takes us through her Paris Fashion Week experience with a candid photo diary, offering us an insider’s look at some of the season’s buzziest fashion shows, as well as her visits to the city’s cafés and cultural spots.
Chantalle Ng attended the Lacoste Spring/Summer 2025 show dressed in an impeccably tailored white coat, louche pants and slip-on trainers.
Ng’s accessory of choice was the Lacoste Maheki shoulder bag in embossed leather.
Ng’s custom nails featured the famous crocodile from the Lacoste logo, and drew inspiration from the colours and motifs of a sweater from the French fashion brand’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection. “They are definitely a great conversation starter!” shares Ng. “My stylist Donson had the nails created according to the colour palette of the new collection, and I think they’re wonderful.”

The actress also flaunted custom press-on nails inspired by the Christian Louboutin logo.
Louboutin’s showcase was staged at the Piscine Molitor, and featured a synchronised swimming spectacle performed by the French Olympic artistic swimming team. The lively presentation was created in collaboration between Louboutin, photographer David LaChapelle and choreographer Blanca Li.
Ng had a front-row view of all the action in the pool. “My favourite part would have been when Mr Louboutin took the slide into the pool,” she says. “The whole stadium cheered and roared. I think that moment encapsulated the joy and fun I have working with the brand.”
Ng, out and about Paris, dressed in a vibrant Louis Vuitton outfit.
The actress made a stop at a local bookstore.
Along the Seine, Ng made a style statement in a knit cardigan, a crinkled brocade skirt and tiger-stripe boots from Louis Vuitton. She also accessorised with the luxury brand’s Side Trunk MM bag.
Ng paid a visit to the Maxime Frédéric at Louis Vuitton café, located in the heart of Paris.
Her favourite item on the menu? “It’ll have to be the chocolates!” she says. “Each flavour was a pleasant surprise. I brought them home for my mum and she loves them too.”
Paris, a cultural centre, is the home of countless museums. Ng visited one as part of her journey with Longchamp. “It was my first time visiting a museum overseas, and I fell completely in love with the experience,” shares the actress. “I’m hoping to visit a museum for every trip in the future. It will expose me to art from all around the world and I love reading about the inspiration behind each piece.”
For her museum visit, Ng toted the Longchamp Le Roseau XS handbag, which came in the perfect size to store all her essentials.
