The most iconic moments from Vogue World 2024

• Vogue World 2024 took place in Paris, France, on Sunday.
• The elaborate fashion show looked back at the past 100 years of fashion through the lens of sports.
• Athletes joined models on the runway, and A-list singers performed. 

The 2024 Paris Olympics don't start for another month, but the iconic games had an unofficial, fashionable start over the weekend.

On Sunday, Vogue World took place at the Place Vendôme in Paris on a cobblestone courtyard in the French square. The annual event is an elevated fashion show with live performers, and it's typically styled to reflect the location and time it takes place, much like the Met Gala.

With Paris hosting the Olympics in July, Vogue's show looked at the past 100 years of fashion in the context of sports. As Vogue reported, it focused on decades, honoring the fashion of each era through a different sport, such as cycling in the 1920s or tennis in the 2000s.

To match the theme, the 2024 show featured nearly 200 athletes and showstopping appearances from models and celebrities.

Take a look at the most iconic moments from Vogue World 2024.

To open the show, Vogue celebrated the seamstresses and tailors by having them walk the runway. The craftsmen from fashion houses like Armani, Dior, and Chanel had front-row seats for the show.

Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid rode on horseback down the runway in matching Hermès outfits.

Anok Yai walked the unconventional runway in a red, white, and blue dress from Alaïa that nodded to the French flag. Pieter Mulier reimagined the original Alaïa dress from 1989.

Jeremy Pope danced down the runway with a group of performers behind him. He wore a Thom Browne tuxedo.

Sabrina Carpenter paid homage to 1940s swimwear in a red-and-white striped look from Jacquemus. Performers waved blue ribbons around her that looked like water.

As dancers in tennis gear performed behind her, Serena Williams strutted down the runway in an Ib Kamara for Off-White dress, honoring both tennis and the late Virgil Abloh.

Venus Williams also appeared on the Vogue World stage in a dress designed by Marine Serre out of recycled tennis bags.

The Noir Kei Ninomiya dress Katy Perry wore during the show was arguably the most daring look at the event. The black gown was covered entirely in floral-shaped cutouts.

The show included multiple performances from athletes and dancers, including professional rhythmic gymnasts who frolicked down the runway.

After singing at the 2023 event, FKA Twigs returned to the Vogue World stage in an Alexandre Vauthier dress for the 1920s section of the show.

NBA player Victor Wembanyama returned to his home country to walk the runway in a white suit.

NFL player Joe Burrow also took to the Vogue stage, making his runway debut in a black suit from Peter Do that he wore with no shirt.

French drag queen Keiona Revlon performed during the show in a Balenciaga suit.

Ciara not only made a surprise appearance in a custom Givenchy dress and cape, but she also stopped to perform with dancers as she made her way down the runway.

And Bad Bunny sang three songs toward the end of the show in a Pressiat suit.
