Just before the 2023/24 Métiers d'art show, CHANEL unveils a series of photographs taken in Manchester by Jamie Hawkesworth. Under the creative direction of CHANEL ambassador Sofia Coppola, the British photographer staged a group of young Mancunians in the first silhouettes of the collection by Virginie Viard.
A black T-shirt dress features an embroidered crest, while a fine velvet jersey sweater is embellished with a pleated plastron dotted with tweed ribbons. Jackets in multicolour Lesage tweed, woven with denim ribbons or bouclette threads in shades of pink, are worn with matching caps, while knitted looks in pastel tones rub shoulders with CHANEL suits in shimmering nuances of pop red, mustard yellow and lilac.
The film of the show will be unveiled on Friday 8th December at 9am Manchester time (10am Paris time) on chanel.com.
