In town to take in her very first Miu Miu show, the trip is Aja Naomi King’s second time in Paris, and she has clearly been making the most of it. A stack of polaroids sitting on a side table details her trip thus far–a view of Notre Dame, a charming Parisian city street, a glistening chandelier. There was only one thing to do left. “I want to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower, because I didn’t do that last time I was here. We went to the Eiffel Tower, but not to the top.” Here, an inside look as King prepares for her first Paris Fashion Week excursion: sitting front row at Miu Miu.
