After transforming the world’s famous solar power plant into a phenomenal runway last summer, Jessica Minh Anh, is back in the fashion capital to host her iconic 100-metre-floating catwalk on the Seine River on 8 June 2016. The highly anticipated J Summer Fashion Show 2016 will premier seven innovative fashion and jewellery collections against the breath-taking LIVE backdrop of Paris.

To create an illusion of models walking on water, Jessica Minh Anh will have guests seated facing the multi-faceted glass windows of Le Jean Bruel while the boat is cruising. As a result, architectural wonders such as the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Louvre, and the 37 bridges will become the natural backdrop for the unconventional catwalk.

Besides her extraordinary catwalk concept, Jessica Minh Anh is known for discovering and introducing some of the most creative fashion designers. J Summer Fashion Show 2016 will feature extravagant collections from Lebanese haute couturier Antoine Kareh, Polish power house Teresa Rosati, Pakistani talent Syeda Amera, Saudi Arabian brand Ot Kutyr Turk Jadallah, Ukrainian designers Mari Sheludko and Valeri Passe of LaFress, Luxembourg’s pride Miranda Konstantinidou, and Iceland’s jeweller Jóhannes Ottósson (NOX).

“What excites me the most is the level of creativity portrayed in each look,” said Jessica Minh Anh “You will see impeccable craftsmanship and a progressive mix of architectural cuts in a series of modern designs. It’s about time we celebrate the rise of the new visionaries”.

VIPs and international press are set to be charmed by exquisite diamond and white gold creations from NOX, unique crystal embroidery and floral details from Ot Kutyr Turk Jadallah, and 3-dimensional sequins embellishment from Syeda Amera. At the same time, the exclusive guests will experience femininity and transparency in Teresa Rosati’s lace dresses, lightness and elegance in LaFress’ silk designs, and endless sensuality of the perfect silhouette in haute couture pieces by Antoine Kareh. The colourful insertion of energy and emotions will come from Miranda Konstantinidou’s collection, which introduces extrovert luxury.

This is the fourth time Jessica Minh Anh has partnered with the oldest boat company, Compagnie des Bateaux Mouches, for her annual showcase on the Seine river. “Jessica Minh Anh has continuously made the world her runway. We are thrilled to work with her over and over again in combining art, architecture, culture, and fashion,” said Marco Goncalvez, Operation Manager of Compagnie des Bateaux Mouches. J Summer Fashion Show 2016 is also supported by Neville London, Opera Cadet Hotel, First Hotel Paris and The Invite Shack SLA Paris who will create flawless beauty looks on the catwalk models.

If sky-high catwalks on places such as the Grand Canyon Skywalk, One World Trade Center, and Costa Luminosa’s sundeck are Jessica Minh Anh’s favourites, then “catwalking on water” is her ulitimate speciality as she continues to conquer the prominent rivers in Paris and New York. 8th of June 2016 is expected to be a very special day to see fashion and Paris in a brand new light.
