Overview
- Matthieu Blazy presented Chanel’s Spring–Summer 2027 prêt‑à‑porter at the Grand Palais on Monday, staging a large, bird‑themed runway with more than eighty models.
- Blazy described the collection as layered stories of Gabrielle Chanel and said the show represented Chanel “taking flight.”
- The clothes emphasized tweed and tailoring, mixing corsetry origins with updated silhouettes and a year‑long tweed technique that created a lighter, smoky effect.
- The spectacle included a soundtrack of violin, bird sounds and 1980s tracks and drew a high‑profile front row that included Dua Lipa, Nicole Kidman, Pedro Pascal and Alexa Demie.
- The presentation is being read as a clear creative and commercial boost for Chanel after Blazy’s 2025 appointment, and the house has confirmed upcoming Haute Couture in January and a Cruise show in Deauville next spring.
