Chanel’s Cruise caravane Nowadays touched on the banks of Lake Como, one of the most romantic, picturesque manifestations of Italian #dolcevita. Unbeaking by luxuriously shifting tides, the French house went all the way to cinematic glamor, so that the Studio de Création was designed in the old -fashioned charm of Hotel Villa d’Este. (The debut of Matthieu Blazy as the new artistic director of Chanel is set for the ready-made season in Paris in October.)
Coco Chanel himself fell for Italy in 1920, when she first traveled with friends Misia and José Maria Sert to Venice, a city whose gilded Byzantine splendor spoke to her taste for Weelde. In the 1930s, Luchino Visconti organized the Imperious Couturière in the Grand Villa Erba, nestled in the Cernobbio estate of his family on Como in the lake. The director and the designer shared a dedication to presentation – Weavig, but demanding, unconventional and soigée, apparently effortless, but rooted in aristocratic pools. Nostalgia or open references avoided, the new cruise collection unfolded as a chic but easy, summer remix, which evokes the Italian resort lifestyle, but made with French Savoir-Faire and Finesse.
Framed by two white ensembles – one peignoir-Stijl mantle manteau ready for the beach and a winding evening dress in liquid satin -the line -Up was focused on imaginative day clothes. A palette with Zonwash called on the terracotta tones of Villa d’Este’s walls and the soft pastel colors of Wisteria that dragged his spectacular gardens, with extra stripes from Bougainvillea and Camellia. Shimmer flashed on a smooth pajamas set in a matte mantle and in a daring backless jumpsuit of pink and orange striped lamé, laminated under a matching cape in the entrance. Sags triwings added Pizzazzz to a classic Lilac Tweed -suit, shown over a blouse with a paillette -while macramé, crochet and complicated side brought the depth of the texture, sturdy silhouettes of the friendly Romy Schneider episode, dressed in the Vismantie in the Vismantie in Vismantie in Vismantie in Vismantie in Vismantie in Vismantie in Vismantie in Vismantie in Vismantie in Vishing, Boccaccio ’70, once wore. The black evening dresses of the final in rustling Taft radiated a rather dramatic, sultry glow.
Omringd door een wervelwind van Chanel-geklede beroemdheden-onder hen Sofia Coppola en haar echtgenoot Thomas Mars, Lupita Nyong’o, Keira Knightley, Margaret Qualley en Anna Mouglalis-Chanel’s President Bruno Pavlovsky belde de collaboratieve prestatie van de studio van de Studio, een team Trained Under the Guidance of Karl Lagerfel and a team trained under the Guidance of Karl Lagerfel and Karl Lagerfel Trained Under The Guidance Oo Virginie Viard.
“Matthieu Blazy will collaborate with a part of the same team,” he noticed. “From October he will be involved with every decision. But Chanel stands for – it is every individual designer. Team that brings collections to life.
