Most shocking departure: Alessandra Facchinetti, who heard she had been fired from Valentino via the press. Ouch!
Best fashion etiquette: Lanvin, for apologising to editors for a 45-minute late start and serving yummy salami sandwiches and wine.
Best surprise appearance: old-school supermodels Stephanie Seymour (below centre) and Naomi Campbell walking the runway at Hermes.
Best set: Chanel, for recreating its 31 Rue de Cambon building, complete with pavements and curbs - oh, and they threw in four hot guys for the finale.
Most unwelcome gatecrasher: funnyman Sasha Baron Cohen dressed as his fashion alter ego, Bruno, wearing a red thong at Stella McCartney and trying to invade the catwalk at Castelbajac.
Most flamboyant bow: Alexander McQueen, who upstaged Galliano by disguising himself in a bunny suit.
