Paris Fashion Week recently took the world by storm, with Chanel’s Virginie Viard unveiling a collection that celebrated comfort and chicness. The iconic runway show at the historic Villa Noailles in the south of France paid homage to its artistic legacy. Gigi Hadid led the models down the runway in flip-flops, giving Chanel a down-to-earth, relaxed summer vibe. Viard aimed for a harmonious blend of sophistication and informality, featuring multicoloured tweed dressing gowns, easygoing outfits, delicate lace, and sporty accents.
One notable aspect of Viard’s collection was her commitment to inclusivity, using mid-size models to make Chanel more relatable to a broader audience. While some critics called for more innovation, the collection’s focus on accessibility was clear.
