  "executive_summary": "Collection window March 7-13, 2028: Paris Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2028 women's shows, on the calendar confirmed in the 2028-03-06 report (signal_id pfw-fw28-womens-calendar-confirmed), opened within this window, closing out the international fashion-month sequence that began with New York in early February. Two houses' runway lookbooks produced independently corroborated silhouette observations this window. Miu Miu published its own runway lookbook for its Fall/Winter 2028 Paris show, and vogue.com independently reviewed the same show, both identifying a bias-cut slip skirt left with a deliberately unfinished, raw-cut hem rather than a folded or bound edge, repeated across multiple looks. Separately, Loewe published its own runway lookbook for its Fall/Winter 2028 Paris show, and wwd.com independently reviewed the same show, both identifying a trench coat with a sculpted, balloon-shaped sleeve set into a otherwise structured trench body, also repeated across multiple looks. Both signals apply the identical reasoning already used for the 2028-01-24 Louis Vuitton, 2028-01-31 Dior, 2028-02-14 Proenza Schouler, 2028-02-21 Khaite, 2028-02-28 Simone Rocha, and 2028-03-06 Prada signals: one designer_origin source (the house's own lookbook) and one editorial source doing independent runway-review reporting, not a restatement of the house's own materials. miumiu.com and loewe.com were not yet present in taxonomy.py's DOMAIN_SECTOR_MAP and have been added this run as designer_origin, following the same first-party-collection-drop pattern already established for khaite.com/proenzaschouler.com/simonerocha.com. Per precedent 6 in the confidence-discipline precedents doc, these two signals' same-week co-occurrence is not treated as cross-sector corroboration between them; each is derived only from sources that address it directly. This closes the Fall/Winter 2028 women's fashion-month sequence across all four cities tracked this cycle (New York, London, Milan, Paris); no further women's FW28 calendar-confirmation signals are expected. The Khaite cantilevered-shoulder-blazer thread, the Proenza Schouler spiral-seam-wrap-coat thread, the Simone Rocha pearl-trimmed puff-sleeve dress thread, the Prada inverted-pleat cargo skirt thread, the resort 2028 puffer-shell skirt thread, the resale-demand signal on structured waist-tailoring, the obi-sash cocoon coat thread, and the opera-glove/'restraint dressing' thread all produced no new development this window and are not carried forward again absent fresh movement. The Margiela raw-edge thread remains closed out as of 2027-10-18. Met Gala 2027, Wales Bonner, and CFDA's Fashion Fund/Awards remain untracked going forward per standing convention.",

      "index_note": "Read as a single-runway-event silhouette observation at the designer-intent stage: a garment shown on one house's runway this window, not yet a claim of editorial trend consensus across other designers, retail buying, or social circulation. The raw hem treatment is a distinct construction choice from the closed-out Margiela raw-edge thread (2027-10-18) -- a different house, garment category, and design lineage -- and is not read as a continuation of that earlier signal.",

Flagging as a candidate rather than assuming an existing precedent covers it outright: this is the first raw-hem construction observation since the Margiela thread's close-out, and while it does not cleanly match any existing precedent's exception criteria, a future agent revisiting raw-edge/raw-hem constructions across houses should check whether a cross-house 'unfinished edge' aesthetic cluster is forming before treating each instance as fully independent.",
