Jordan Barrett turned heads in the City of Light on Wednesday as he arrived at the Tom Ford show at Paris Fashion Week arm-in-arm with close friend Paris Jackson.
The 28-year-old Aussie model looked every inch the dashing companion as he kept close to the daughter of late pop icon Michael Jackson, who is fresh from her split with fiancé Justin Long.
Jordan oozed effortless sophistication in a sharp grey houndstooth double-breasted suit that hugged his lean model physique.
He accessorised with black-framed glasses for a touch of intellectual polish, completing the look with classic black shoes.
Meanwhile, Paris, 27, commanded attention in a sleek black gown featuring a daring thigh-high slit that showed off her statuesque frame.
The floor-length dress, styled with long sleeves and a sultry old Hollywood silhouette, was offset with strappy stilettos and her blonde hair was worn in soft, tumbling waves.

The pair exuded undeniable style chemistry as they posed for cameras, their monochrome outfits perfectly in sync.
Jordan was ever the gentleman, resting a protective arm around Paris as they navigated the star-studded crowd, adding fuel to speculation about their budding bond.
The sighting comes after Paris called it quits with partner Long after a whirlwind engagement.
Barrett married fellow model Fernando Casablancas in an intimate ceremony in Ibiza in August 2021, but the pair split in 2022.
Jordan’s appearance comes after he sparked concern two years ago when he stepped out for 2023 London Fashion Week looking incredibly gaunt in the face.
He later revealed why he had lost so much weight.
The catwalk star said he was training for another marathon in an Instagram post that same month.
He said at the time he would be taking part in the Vienna Marathon to raise funds to recover missing children.

‘Countdown, Vienna marathon, 60 Days. This time I’ll be running raising funds for LDA Les Disparus Anonymes,’ he captioned pictures of himself training.
‘League of Anonymous Disappeared (LDA) is searching for missing children. And innocence in danger provides psychological/legal support for kids.’
Jordan went on to say the founder of the organisation ‘has found more than 1000 children with the team he created at LDA’.
In the photos, Jordan showed off his very lean figure as he worked up a sweat training hard for the run.
It likely explains the gaunt features he debuted at London Fashion Week when he arrived for the Moncler Genius runway show.
Jordan was 13 when he was discovered at a grocery store by Kirk Blake from What Model Management in 2011.
‘I was scouted in my local grocery store on the Gold Coast by a man named Kirk Blake, who has been in the industry for years,’ he recalled in a 2013 interview.
He later told New York magazine he was stealing matches for cigarettes at the time.
‘I wanted to have a cigarette, but I couldn’t get a lighter because apparently you have to be over 18, so I decided I was gonna take matches from the counter,’ he said.
The US-based model has been linked with numerous socialites including Paris Hilton, Hailey Baldwin, Sofia Richie, Megan Blake Irwin, Lara Stone and Sahara Ray.
