Cheryl Fernandez-Versini Makes Her Debut On The Paris Fashion Week Front Row

The X Factor judge was joined by hubby Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini and Dita Von Teese at Ralph and Russo Spring 2015 Couture

She hired a new stylist to revamp her image on The X Factor 2014.

And it looks like Cheryl Fernandez-Versini is taking her new style direction very seriously as she made her debut on the Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week front row.

The 31-year-old former Girls Aloud star was joined by her French hubby Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini, 34, for the Ralph and Russo Spring 2015 Couture show at the Grand Palais.

It’s the first time Cheryl (formerly Mrs Cole) has made an appearance at Haute Couture Fashion Week, which is dedicated to showcasing the latest designs by established couturiers from around the world including Dior, Valentino and Chanel.

In other words, it’s the epitome of High Fashion.

The Newcastle-born brunette travelled across the channel to show her support for the label, which is also the first and only British Fashion House to be elected by the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture to show its collection on the official schedule.

Posting a picture alongside burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese, the singer wrote on Instagram, ‘Such a stunning show for Ralph & Russo today. The only British haute couture house to be accepted to show here in Paris in 100 years. [sic]’

The brand creates its stunning pieces at an atelier in London by highly-skilled couturiers who have between 15-25 years of experience at top fashion houses.

It takes hundreds of hours for each gown to be created and up to twenty couturiers are needed to make each creation.

Cheryl F-V has worn the label in the past – in fact, she wore Ralph & Russo to her celebrate her marriage with Jean-Bernard at the Library Club in July 2014.

Does this suggest that it was actually Ralph & Russo that designed her highly-secretive wedding dress?

Like Kim Kardashian’s appearance at the Givenchy show, a place on the FROW would imply so.

Royals have also been spotted in Ralph & Russo, as well as Angelina Jolie and Beyonce on her Mrs Carter World Tour.

For her spot on the FROW, the Geordie star donned a very sophisticated, monochrome outfit consisting of fitted black trousers, white blazer, waisted belt and neck scarf.

White-capped heels completed her outfit while her famous brunette locks were styled into a sleek, low ponytail.

Meanwhile Jean-Bernard also dressed up for the occasion, sporting a knee-length black pea coat, his signature v-neck tee and smart leather brogue shoes.

The loved-up couple were later pictured at Gare du Nord station in Paris to catch the Eurostar back to London.

The pair must have enjoyed the show because they couldn't have looked happier as they travelled back to the UK holding hands.

You know what they say, the couple that hits fashion week together, stays together!
