Chanel Ready To Wear Show Spring 2023

One of the highlights of Paris Fashion Week is always the Chanel Runway Show. This year’s show was held at Paris’ Grand Palais Éphémère. Creative Director Virginie Viard created a line of playful yet sophisticated clothes for this upcoming season with a more modern edge. Noticeably showcased were shorter hemlines, touches of tweeds, splashes of pink and navy, and shining gold (LOVE, LOVE!!!!!). Shoes were much more simple in this collection, flats, lower heels, and of course, a few different takes on the brand’s signature slingbacks (still on my own wishlist!!!!).

Within a cinematic background, against a 360° cinema screen from the film “Last Year in Marienbad” (1961) by Alain Resnais, the CHANEL Spring-Summer 2023 Ready-to-Wear collection incites the very essence of “allure”. Exploring a woman’s freedom – of movement and of expression – Virginie Viard imagines a collage of glamour, swirling with modernity and lightness. Symbols of womanhood, from pearls and sequins to bows and feathers, alight upon silk chiffons, polka dots, and houndstooth tweeds. Sensuality abounds in the shifting proportions of softness, structure, and precious adornments. Mystery pervades in the intangible echoes of Gabrielle Chanel, executed with an innately modern hand.
