It will probably get more and more difficult as more cities try to establish themselves as a fashion capital to compete with Paris. Even Milan, London and New York have suffered over the funelling of talent to Paris.
That is not to say there isn't a lot of talent outside Paris, because there is, but most talented people will be drawn to Paris (or another capital) in the pursuit of success and recognition. Paris is the Anna Wintour of fashion cities; it is a brutal competitor and keeps its' rivals in check.
Having said that, I imagine some attention will begin to fall on China (there's no way around it), Eastern Europe (maybe Poland?) and the Middle East (I'm thinking Egypt) over the next 10 years.
