When Chanel returned to the Grand Palais on Tuesday, guests were met by a massive empty cage. The décor appeared to depict the house’s current status, a stately edifice devoid of artistic direction, even though it may not have been done so on purpose. Following the resignation of Virginie Viard, Chanel finds itself in a precarious position as the fashion industry eagerly anticipates the selection of a new creative leader.
Meanwhile, Chanel named Lupita Nyong’o as its newest ambassador, marking a significant move towards embracing diversity. The Oscar-winning actor, Kenyan-Mexican, was appointed at a critical juncture for the French design business, which had previously been criticised for its lack of diversity. This action comes after the much-praised selection of British-Indian Leena Nair as Chanel’s global.
Chiffon capes, slit skirts, embroidered transparent shirt dresses, trench coats with multicoloured feather prints, aviator jackets with Peter Pan collars, completely pink or blue tweed ensembles, and the iconic little black dress that Chanel herself introduced to the world were just a few of the well-known elements from Chanel’s extensive repertoire that were featured in the spring collection. There were pastel knits, tweed, jersey, faille, transparent needlework, sequins, fringe, and sparkly platform shoes.
