Chanel creative director Virginie Viard opted for a low-key rendition of haute couture for the French fashion house’s fall-winter runway show in Paris on Tuesday. The designer label featured a mix of tweed ensembles with long, full-skirted dresses and a slightly relaxed fit.
The label took to a horse field on the outskirts of Paris, producing a set that played with optical effects, with geometric patterns running diagonally while large silver globes hung from the ceiling.
The show began with the launch of Pharrell Williams playing a drum set, with electronic music grinding in the background.
As the soundtrack switched to soothing tones, wavy-haired models in lime green skirts and jackets surfaced, kicking off the fashion line-up. Other models followed, zig-zagging across the floor, in beige, pale pink and all-black looks.
The jacket was paired with loose trousers or skirts that ran around the ankles, with rows of pockets and buttons punching up the house’s signature tweed, in various patterns, including stripes.
Low heels and floppy hats added to the casual flavor of the lineup, with shimmery embellishments kept to a minimum.
At the end of the show, the traditional bride in a white wedding dress also looked relaxed, with her hands in front pockets. A simple white bow was placed on his head, with the tail of the ribbon flowing backwards.
