Chanel goes sheer and wild for Matthieu Blazy’s spring/summer 2027 show

Matthieu Blazy's spring/summer 2027 collection for Chanel showcased a more liberating and daring side of the iconic fashion house. The Parisian designer presented a series of sheer skirts, tiger-print tweed, and animal print ensembles on the Grand Palais runway.

The collection seemed to embrace a new sensuality, blending the brand's traditional tweed suits with youthful glitz and bold color combinations. Models strutted the runway in a variety of skirts, from sliced paneling to pleated mini-skirts, all paired with cropped jackets revealing midriff. Hems were intentionally distressed, finished with metallic beads.

Accessories complemented the fierce looks, with models wearing chunky two-tone pumps in leopard or tiger print, chunky sandals featuring a gold interlocking C logo, and quilted handbags in black, burgundy, or white. A few variations of these bags incorporated zebra print and clashing primary colors.

Chanel's enthusiasm and renewed presence in the fashion market have been credited to Blazy's creative direction. Front-row guests at the event included celebrities like Dua Lipa, Nicole Kidman, and Pedro Pascal.
