The style icon and face of Karl Lagerfeld's spring campaign talks Infinite Icon, her activism on Capitol Hill, her obsession with one of Lagerfeld's signature pieces and more.
We're roughly six weeks into the year, and already 2026 is shaping up to be a big one for Paris Hilton.
On January 20, the multi-hyphenate premiered Infinite Icon, a "visual memoir" about her life as a business woman, former reality TV star, activist, heiress, and mom, told through the lens of her career as an in-demand DJ.
The day after the Los Angeles premiere, Hilton got on a plane to Washington DC, where, alongside Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Laurel Lee, she advocated for the passage of the DEFIANCE Act, which aims to protect women and girls against image-based abuse.
And today, Glamour can exclusively reveal Paris Hilton's latest feat: Starring in the new spring 2026 campaign for Karl Lagerfeld Paris. This all before her 45th birthday on February 17.
Photographed in Paris, France by Chris Colls, the campaign showcases one of Hilton's many, many talents: serving face in front of the camera.
"We shot it in Paris at Karl's beautiful office building," Hilton tells Glamour. "Just being in such a historic building was so amazing. You could just feel the energy in the room."
In the new campaign, Paris wears pieces from Karl Lagerfeld Paris, the US-exclusive collection which is now shoppable on the brand's website. The pink Patch Bomber Jacket ($250) is particularly Paris Hilton-coded, and features Eiffel Tower and Choupette (Lagerfeld's famous cat) patches, as well as a patch in the shape of Lagerfeld's cartoon caricature. "I loved every single piece," says Hilton.
