Overview
- Staged under the Grand Palais nave, the show adopted a pared-back construction motif with painted cranes and a vinyl floor in place of past extravagant sets.
- The collection mapped Chanel’s suit across decades from 1920s references to a futurist register, using the tailleur as its central thread.
- Material experiments and modern pairings included lurex, silicone and natural gauze, with suits styled alongside bomber jackets.
- Age diversity was foregrounded as Stéphanie Cavalli, 50, opened the runway, followed by more than a dozen models over 40.
- High-profile guests included Jennie, Margot Robbie and French astronaut Claudie Haigneré, as Blazy delivered his fourth runway for the house.
