“Shame on you for putting Marilyn Manson on the runway! Not in 2026! Not on International Women’s Day!” This statement from a critic encapsulates the backlash against the controversial musician’s recent appearance at Paris Fashion Week.

On March 9, 2026, Manson, whose real name is Brian Hugh Warner, walked the runway during the Fall/Winter 2026 show for the fashion label Enfants Riches Déprimés. This event coincided with International Women’s Day, adding to the criticism surrounding his participation.

Compounding the controversy, a lawsuit against Manson was recently reopened by Judge Steve Cochran. The judge stated, “I looked at this closely. I do think the statute revives the claim,” referring to a new law that allows older sexual assault cases to be heard in court.

The lawsuit was initially filed in May 2021 by Walters, a former assistant who alleges that Manson sexually assaulted her during her employment from 2010 to 2011. The case was dismissed in December 2021 due to exceeding the statute of limitations, but the recent legal changes have allowed it to be reconsidered.

Manson has faced multiple allegations of sexual assault and abuse from at least 13 women since the late 1990s. His lawyer, Howard King, asserted that “The undeniable fact is that Mr. Warner never committed any sexual assault,” indicating a firm denial of the allegations.

Critics have been vocal about their disapproval of Manson’s presence at the fashion show, with one stating, “Someone who deliberately chooses to bring up Marilyn Manson on Women’s Day deserves absolutely no respect.” This sentiment reflects a broader societal concern regarding the implications of celebrating individuals with such serious allegations against them.

As Manson, now 57, continues to navigate the complexities of his career amidst these allegations, the fashion industry and public reaction remain divided. His appearance at the show has sparked discussions about accountability and the treatment of artists with controversial histories.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the next steps in the reopened lawsuit, but the implications of Manson’s participation in high-profile events amidst ongoing legal battles continue to raise questions about the intersection of art, celebrity, and accountability.
