other · 2026-10-06

In Paris, Matthieu Blazy presented his third ready-to-wear collection for Chanel, Spring/Summer 2027, named "Different Faces of the Same Coin." This collection illustrates Gabrielle Chanel's journey from a defiant youth to a revered fashion figure. Blazy referenced Chanel's words: "The child I once was is with me today." The Grand Palais was transformed by set designer Arnaud Selve into a surreal sky, with models elegantly tracing an infinity symbol on the runway. Bird motifs were prominent, including a minaudière shaped like a birdcage. The show featured a soundtrack of birdsong alongside Camille Saint-Saëns's The Swan. Dyanira Hurbuscher opened the show, carrying Chanel's iconic 2.55 bag, establishing a sense of intimacy before revealing the reimagined wardrobe.
