Amid a sea of neutral tones dominating current fashion, Chanel infused the runway with uplifting pastels. The opening look featured an iridescent, hand-painted pastel jacket paired with a playful, box-pleated A-line skirt. Shades of mint green, fondant pink, coral, mauve, and yellow followed, bringing a sense of joy and optimism that felt like a balm for challenging times.
Reworking the iconic Chanel tweed suit into something youthful and wearable, the collection showcased skirts cut above the knee and paired them with cropped jackets, long silhouettes, and even a chic cardigan jacket lined with emerald green satin. The result was a modern take on the 1960s Chanel aesthetic that felt fresh and relevant for a younger audience. Haute couture’s signature craftsmanship—embroidery, featherwork, and meticulous detail—was present but balanced with a relaxed, wearable approach. Standout looks included a sleek yellow satin shirtdress and a silver lamé dress styled with a long coat, embodying elegance with simplicity. The show steered away from a dramatic seasonal narrative, instead presenting a relatable and wearable couture wardrobe. The set at the Grand Palais—designed as a flowing white Mobius band—reflected the house’s essence of calm sophistication. The architecture’s infinite loop evoked the timelessness of Chanel, subtly shaped into a giant CC logo, symbolizing continuity and optimism. |
