Don’t judge Emma Watson’s fashion sense by what you see onscreen. While Watson’s onscreen alter-ego, Harry Potter’s Hermione Granger, has a wardrobe that seems to consist entirely of striped sweaters, Watson seems to have a red carpet wardrobe that’s almost exclusively Chanel. The 17-year old actress wore Chanel to a Raisa Gorbachev Foundation event in London last month, as well as to the Tokyo and London premieres of Potter — and she plans to wear Chanel in Paris and in the U.S. “I just love it all,” Watson told PEOPLE, as she smoothed her navy blue Chanel Haute Couture dress at the London premiere. “It’s all just beautiful. I think my favorite is the dress I’m going to wear tomorrow in Paris. It’s just. . .it’s amazing. I don’t want to spoil it by telling you about it!” (For the record, Chanel says Watson doesn’t have a deal, “she just chooses to wear Chanel.”) Meanwhile, Watson’s co-star Katie Leung — who has the job of kissing Daniel Radcliffe onscreen — struggled a bit more with her fashion credits. Asked about her gold dress, she told PEOPLE cheerfully: “I’m not sure if it’s Lanvin or Lenvin, but it’s spelled L-A-N-V-I-N,” she said. Asked about her shoes, she glanced at her red-soled black heels, ducked her head, then struggled gamely to pronounce “Louboutin.”

While the venue for the Armani Prive Haute Couture Autumn/Winter show, the Palais de Chaillot overlooking the Eiffel Tower, is stunning and busy outside, inside the scene is slightly more serene. Anne Hathaway takes to her seat looking like a princess in a silver satin bubble hem dress under a chic white trench-coat while Cate Blanchett is the last to arrive looking every bit the Hollywood star in a high neck black dress and towering patent heels. “It’s timeless, it’s classic — and I’m really excited about the few little whispers I’ve heard about this,” she tells PEOPLE as numerous bodyguards usher her in so the show can began. A whirlwind display of voluminous skirts in metallic shades, structured satin dresses and the finale diamante-encrusted ball gown leave some so in awe they burst into applause during the show. As celebs are led backstage to greet the designer post-show, stylist Rachel Zoe stops to tell me her pick of the couture candy: “My favorite would be the feather coat. It was brown with a million little feathers, and it was like a coat dress kind of thing, it was beautiful.” As Mr Armani leaves with a wave and a smile for the cameras, everyone inside continues to celebrate in his glory, with champagne and Italian canapes, of course.
