Brut journalist Guillaume Macé attended Matthieu Blazy’s second Chanel Haute Couture show. Here are his notes from the runway:
The collection drew inspiration from Jack and the Beanstalk, with a fairytale-like set and a soundtrack with regal, cinematic elements.
Nature was a central theme throughout the show. Climbing plants appeared across the garments, highlighting the house’s embroidery techniques and craftsmanship.
Several looks featured playful, imaginative details, including a scarecrow-inspired design. Handbags were also reduced to miniature proportions and presented as jewelry-like accessories carried in the hand.
The casting was notably diverse and included several models who have previously worked with Blazy.
Chanel’s signature tailoring remained prominent, including a fringed suit that revealed a pattern inside the skirt. The collection featured rich textures, bright colors and fluid, lightweight silhouettes.
Under Blazy’s direction, the Chanel woman was presented as confident and self-assured. The collection formed part of a broader visual world extending from the clothing to the set design and soundtrack.
