According to Reuters, A climate change protester walked down the Louis Vuitton catwalk yesterday with a big banner, interrupting the show. 

Her banner contained the words “overconsumption = extinction”. She wanted to raise awareness about the impact of excessive consumption on the environment. 

The security quickly dragged her off the catwalk. Furthermore, Reuters witness claimed, “In the front row, French cinema stars Catherine Deneuve and Isabelle Huppert hardly flinched, while some members of the Arnault clan, seated next to LVMH chief executive officer and chairman Bernard Arnault, glanced at each other.” 

According to News 18, the woman represented “Amis de la Terre France”. She is a rebel with a desire to save the planet.
