CHOCOLATE FASHION SHOW
The Salon du Chocolat invented the unique and audacious idea of associating the finest fashion designers and the most talented chocolatiers to create exceptional couture masterpieces.
The 18th edition of the Salon du Chocolat celebrated "The New Worlds of Chocolate" and the Chocolate Fashion Show offered a visionary journey to the heart of the new worlds of chocolate in six gourmet domains. This year, the Fashion Show took the form of a special performance with the collaboration of the students and teaching staff of the multidisciplinary school MJM Graphic Design. For the Opening night, VIP wore the chocolate dresses with students of the Académie Internationale de Comédie Musicale.
