and explores the medium and the nature of photography, while also
fulfilling press assignments related to current events.
For Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2020, he created a series capturing the backstage action at fashion shows

—unseen by the public—during which everything unfolds. From the feverish preparations to the tension surrounding the lineup, Stéphane
Lagoutte captures the buzz behind the scenes.
