Very warm with layers of materials, colors, and volumes, the CHANEL Fall-Winter 2024/25 Ready-to-Wear collection pays tribute to Deauville, the legendary place where Gabrielle Chanel’s destiny changed forever. Virginie Viard recreated the Deauville boardwalk with a show during which models walk along the beach shrouded in mystery as the 1920s and 70s cross paths and intertwine. Amidst these inspiring vibes, the androgynous and cinematic collection draws its femininity from Gabrielle Chanel’s wardrobe and its masculinity from the subtle elegance of winter sojourns by the sea.
All this was perfectly unraveled through chunky sweaters and knits featuring the landscapes of Deauville and alternating with silk blouses with middy collars, herringbone prints, low-cut tops with flounces, jumpsuits, and negligees whose delicacy evokes gentle waves breaking and a soft wind blowing. As for the color palette, it takes its vibrant or pastel shades of pink, mauve, orange, and pale blue from the ever-changing colors of the Deauville sky, along with brown and gold lamé.
