The numbers
Macaulay Culkin, now 45 years old, attended Paris Fashion Week from March 3-9, 2026, marking his return to the fashion scene after a notable absence since the Gucci Love Parade in November 2021. His appearances at the event included a standout moment at the Dior show, where he showcased a vibrant outfit featuring a blue Op Art shirt and striped ensemble, complemented by his blue nails.
At the Dior show, Culkin sat between supermodel Emily Ratajkowski and K-pop star Hyunjin, drawing attention not only for his fashion choices but also for his playful demeanor. He wore a sweater inspired by ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar,’ further emphasizing his unique style. “The nails always match,” Culkin quipped, highlighting his attention to detail in fashion.
Culkin’s second appearance came at the Jean-Paul Gaultier show on March 9, where he continued to impress with his painted toenails while seated next to singer Tyla. His playful spirit was evident as he remarked, “I want to put my toe in this water and see if I want to go swimming. And it’s actually been going swimmingly,” reflecting his enjoyment of the fashion world.
Beyond his fashion statements, Culkin’s personal life has also evolved significantly. He is now a father of two sons, Dakota, born in 2021, and Carson, born in 2023, with actress Brenda Song. Interestingly, his sons are unaware of his iconic role as Kevin McAllister from the beloved holiday film ‘Home Alone,’ which was released 35 years ago.
In a humorous twist, Culkin changed his legal name to Macaulay Macaulay Culkin Culkin in 2019, joking that it was for a perfect airport joke. “Well, Macaulay Culkin is my middle name,” he explained, showcasing his lighthearted approach to life and fame.
As Culkin continues to embrace his role in the fashion industry, observers are eager to see how his unique style and personality will influence future trends. His return to the public eye at such a prestigious event signals a potential new chapter in his career, blending his past with a fresh perspective.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any upcoming projects or collaborations, but Culkin’s presence at Paris Fashion Week certainly reignites interest in his multifaceted career and personal journey.
