A movement activist jumped onto the catwalk installed in one of the galleries of the French museum in the middle of the parade and was then taken out of safety. Two other people paraded with banners that read “Fashion Change not Climate Change“.

? This will not prevent us from continuing to warn about the ravages of the fashion industry? #LVMH
