The Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture on Tuesday announced that fashion houses Schiaparelli, Ralph & Russo and Serkan Cura have been invited to show as guest members at Haute Couture Fashion Week in January 2014.

Schiaparelli will make its long-awaited return to the runway in January with its first collection under the artistic direction of ex-Rochas designer Marc Zanini. It is expected that the label – owned by Diego Della Valle of the Tod’s Group – will receive an official invite to become a member of the Chambre Syndicale. While the dormant brand’s resurrection will is much anticipated, many are eager to see what Serkan Cura and Ralph & Russo can bring to the table.
