South African singer Tyla couldn’t hide her excitement as she secured one of the most coveted seats at Chanel’s Paris Fashion Week show on Tuesday—right next to fashion legend Anna Wintour.
The 23-year-old joined an exclusive guest list that included supermodel Naomi Campbell and actress Jessica Alba, but it was her prime front-row placement beside the Vogue editor-in-chief that made headlines. Sitting next to the 75-year-old fashion powerhouse, Tyla flashed a beaming smile as she took in the luxury brand’s Fall 2025/2026 collection at the historic Grand Palais.
Her prominent seating was no coincidence. Tyla recently made history as the first South African artist to grace the cover of British Vogue, landing the March 2025 issue. The achievement marked a major milestone in her career, and she has since expressed immense gratitude to Anna Wintour for the opportunity.
For the Chanel show, Tyla turned heads in a stylish pink co-ord set featuring a mini skirt, strapless top, and cropped blazer. She paired the chic look with sleek black heels and a statement silver Chanel necklace, exuding confidence and sophistication.
Paris Fashion Week’s final day saw Chanel, Miu Miu, and Saint Laurent close out the event with star-studded showcases. But for Tyla, this moment wasn’t just about fashion—it was a symbol of her rising influence on the global stage. From making history with British Vogue to sitting beside one of the biggest names in fashion, she continues to shine in both the music and style worlds.
