VIKTOR & ROLF will return to the Paris haute couture schedule in July. It has been 13 years since the Dutch designer pair last created a couture collection.

The Chambre Syndicale - the French governing body of designers - voted in favour of the fashion house returning as a member of the couture calendar at a meeting held on April 22. Little is yet known about the label's comeback, and it remains to be seen as to whether the duo will host a full-scale catwalk show or a smaller, more intimate presentation.

The label was a fixture on the Paris couture schedule between January 1998 and July 2000. Designers Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren are renowned for their complex fantastical designs and often theatrical shows - emphasised even more so on a couture catwalk - and count Jennifer Lawrence, Doutzen Kroes and Jessica Chastain among their celebrity fans.
