Overview
- Blazy unveiled his Spring/Summer 2026 debut at the Grand Palais under a suspended solar‑system set, restoring large‑scale showmanship to Chanel.
- Across 70-plus looks, he reworked core codes through androgynous suiting, frayed tweeds, elongated shirting and a deliberately "crushed" 2.55 bag.
- The collection emphasized tactility and motion with feathers, glittering knits and lightened tweeds, including Charvet shirts nodding to Coco Chanel’s menswear borrowings.
- A star-packed audience that included Nicole Kidman and Ayo Edebiri rose for a standing ovation as the show closed Paris Fashion Week.
- Appointed in December and known for craft-focused work at Bottega Veneta, Blazy drew broad praise for a strategic reset, with observers stressing execution to sustain results in key markets.
