In Thomas Street, in the North of Manchester, at dusk, CHANEL found the right time to reveal its 2023/24 Métiers d’art collection while paying remarkable attention to color. The show evoked feelings in an unprecedented way as suits, bags, and strings of pearls aligned around a shimmering, pop palette. From salmon pink to pumpkin, apple green, mustard, sky blue, red, and rust, the horizon was lit with femininity and singularity. In fact, the Artistic Director wanted to focus on the poetry of emotions with a dash of the sixties as she evokes the ever-youthful love story between CHANEL and Great Britain with a vibrant sensitivity and musicality. Ideas of Great Britain evoke wraparound skirts, miniskirts with godets, Bermuda shorts, shirts and coatdresses, all featured in tweed, knitwear in Shetland and cashmere.

Indeed, with utmost simplicity and absolute precision, the collection was faithful to the House codes that make it so modern – the chains at the bottom of the jackets, the contrasting inner fabrics, and the multiple topstitched panels allowing for a great freedom of movement – as it celebrates Gabrielle Chanel’s own art of tailoring.
