Private chauffeur service
for Paris Fashion Week
Shows, showrooms and late-night events: one driver,
available from first call to last after-party.
“What a wonderful experience this was, especially for a first time visit in Paris for myself and my niece. We were flying into CDG from London Heathrow and didn’t know what to expect as US citizens going through customs, so we set up a meet and greet as well as private transfer service. Communication and expectations were clear, professional and polite from the moment I made the reservation online through the day of our arrival. Our greeter met us immediately upon our leaving the plane, whisked us through customs, collected all of our big heavy luggage, and led us easily to our driver. Both gentlemen were polite, professional, and friendly, as well as respectful and very pleasant. We had an easy and comfortable drive into the city in our luxurious electric Mercedes. Our driver even noticed that my niece had fallen asleep and was even more respectful with his driving, which I thought was very sweet and thoughtful! Even though our hotel was on a tiny but busy street, our driver was able to back in to help us again with our multiple pieces of big heavy luggage! I cannot say enough good things about the excellent services this team provides. I would highly recommend their services and would definitely use again! Thank you for your excellence as well as your kindness!!”

Our Services During Fashion Week
Why Fashion Professionals Choose PrivateDrive
Paris Fashion Week transport: what buyers, press and houses actually need
Fashion Week in Paris is not one event: it is four distinct seasons spread across the year, each with its own venues, rhythms and logistics. Womenswear in March and October dominates the calendar, but Menswear, Haute Couture and trade fairs like Première Vision and Who's Next bring tens of thousands of professionals to Paris every quarter. The common thread: tight schedules, scattered venues, and zero tolerance for delays.
Buyers running multiple showroom appointments in a single day (Marais in the morning, Palais de Tokyo at noon, a Porte de Versailles trade booth by 3 PM) need a driver who stays with them, not a new ride-hail for each leg. Hourly hire eliminates the rebooking friction entirely. Your driver waits outside each venue, knows the fastest route to the next, and handles parking in areas where Fashion Week traffic makes it impossible.
International press teams flying into CDG or Orly need a seamless handoff from the gate to their hotel or directly to a venue. Flight delays are standard during Fashion Week weeks. Our real-time flight tracking adjusts pickup times automatically. For teams arriving on private aviation at Le Bourget, we provide tarmac-side pickup by arrangement.
Luxury houses coordinating transport for their creative directors, VIP clients and production teams need a single provider who can manage multiple vehicles across multiple days with one invoice. PrivateDrive offers dedicated corporate accounts with a named coordinator, consolidated billing under one purchase order, and the ability to adjust vehicle counts and schedules day by day as the Fashion Week calendar evolves.
The Mercedes V-Class is the default choice for fashion logistics. Its boot accommodates garment bags, sample racks and lookbook boxes alongside personal luggage. For smaller delegations, the E-Class or S-Class provides a more discreet profile. All vehicles are unbranded: no livery, no signage, no distractions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Full-day hire (8 to 12 hours) is our most popular option during Fashion Week. Your driver stays with you between shows, showrooms and meals, no need to rebook for each leg. The event rate is €110.50/h during the Womenswear weeks (March and late September to early October) and €85/h on other dates, Menswear and Couture weeks included. It is locked at booking and shown upfront, with no live ride-hail surge on the day.
Yes. We provide meet & greet transfers from CDG, Orly and Le Bourget for individuals and full teams. Flight tracking is included: if a flight is delayed, your driver adjusts automatically. For groups, we coordinate multiple vehicles arriving at the same terminal.
On hourly hire, your driver adapts in real time. Show added, show cancelled, dinner moved: just tell your driver. No rebooking needed, no penalty. That flexibility is the whole point of hourly hire versus individual transfers.
