Chanel Métiers d’Art 2026. Key Moments from the New York Show
What comes to mind when you think of a subway? For most people, it’s a busy and noisy place where everyone is rushing somewhere, minding their own business, waiting for a train, or just trying to get through the day. But the new creative director at Chanel saw it differently. Every year, Chanel’s Métiers d’Art show holds in different cities, and for the 2026 edition, Matthieu Blazy chose New York City. He picked an abandoned subway station in Manhattan as the venue and used it to unveil his second collection.
According Matthieu Blazy, the collection felt very character-driven, with each look telling its own story. Some outfits were inspired by a journalist from the ’70s, while others like the ’80s businesswoman ready to rule. All the details were carefully crafted to match each characters.

Models didn’t walk the runway in the usual way. Instead, they appeared around the subway-themed space while some stepped out of the train and stood along the platform as if waiting for their ride. Others leaned against pillars or sat near the tracks. Their outfits were a mix of Chanel tweed sets, oversized coats, and pinstripe suits styled with hats. There were also bold pieces like animal-print skirt suits and denim-inspired sets.
The guest walked down the stairs and passed through turnstiles before entering into the platform that was used as the runway. The stairs became the red carpet. Brand ambassador Tilda Swinton made her entrance in a high-neck feathered top paired with tweed skirt. she accessorized with black pumps with a contrasting ivory trim.

Kristen Stewart, Riley Keough, and Tessa Thompson attended the show, along with Chanel’s new ambassadors Ayo Edebiri and A$AP Rocky. Each of them arrived in stylish outfits that almost competed with the looks on the runway. Here are a few of the best-dressed guests of the night.

The model wasn’t walking the runway, but that didn’t stop her from making a statement. She opted for an all-black outfit, a see-through knitted skirt and a transparent textured sweater. She tied the look with sheer tights, pointed-toe pumps, and a Chanel bag.
The Métiers d’Art 2026 show wasn’t the usual runway, models mingled, smiled, and moved in and out of a subway‑inspired set, turning a busy station into a playful fashion moment. From the models to the front-row stars, Chanel’s imprint was everywhere. Almost all the attendees opted for the two‑toned Chanel shoes, showing that this Métiers d’Art show left its mark both on the runway and the red carpet.

Set against an industrial backdrop with deep blue tones, the campaign creates a mood that places focus on the clothing rather than elaborate production. The imagery captures the collection through intimate portraits, allowing details such as fabric, layering and silhouette to define the visual direction.

The campaign follows the presentation of Miu Miu’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection by Miuccia Prada, which explored the relationship between clothing and the body through tailored silhouettes, considered proportions and textured materials. The advertising images translate those ideas into a more intimate campaign setting.

With its focus on texture, proportion and styling, the Fall/Winter 2026 campaign captures the collection’s modern sensibility while keeping the clothing at the centre.
Birkenstocks have become a noticeable part of this season’s footwear choices, showing up across everyday outfits, from city walks to beach days. As warm weather calls for lighter, easy-to-wear pieces, many are choosing simple sandals that can be styled beyond casual outfits and Birkenstocks have become one of the go-to options.
Instead of being limited to casual wear, they are now styled with everything from denim and tailored pieces to dresses, as fashion lovers continue finding new ways to pair the sandals with different looks.

Denim and Birkenstocks remain one of the easiest summer combinations. Whether worn with jeans or denim shorts, the sandals complement different denim silhouettes. A basic tank top, fitted shirt, or oversized white T-shirt can complete the look, creating an outfit that works for city walks, casual outings, or everyday plans.

Tailored shorts offer a way to style Birkenstocks beyond relaxed outfits. When paired with tailored shorts, the sandals can easily work for city walks, weekend plans, or a daytime activity. The structured shape of tailored shorts gives the outfit a cleaner look, while the simple design of Birkenstocks keeps the overall style relaxed. The look can be finished with oversized shirts and lightweight cardigans to simple tanks. It creates a balance between a more structured piece and the casual nature of the sandals.
Leggings

Leggings are another way to style Birkenstocks. High-waisted leggings paired with a cropped top, oversized sweatshirt, or fitted jacket create a sporty-inspired look that fits into everyday street style. The contrast between the fitted leggings and the structured sandals adds more style to the outfit.
Oversized Blazers

An oversized blazer might not be the first piece that comes to mind when styling Birkenstocks, but the combination creates an interesting contrast. The structured shape of the blazer combined with the relaxed design of the sandals makes the outfit appear stylish and put together. The look suits casual meetings or days when you want to wear something minimal without looking underdressed.
Linen Dresses

Pairing Birkenstocks with a linen dress creates a more unexpected combination, but it works well especially during warmer months. The lightweight feel of linen matches the easygoing design of the sandals.
Beach Outings

For vacation settings, Birkenstocks offer a more styled alternative to classic flip-flops. Paired with flowy dresses, linen sets, or lightweight cover-ups, they bring structure to warm-weather outfits while still fitting stylishly into beachside dressing.
Hailey Bieber’s love for denim has led to a collaboration with Gap, introducing a limited-edition collection inspired by her personal style and ’90s fashion. The collection, called “The Hailey Jean,”will launch on July 16 and it features two denim silhouettes: the Extra Baggy Jean and the Low Rise Loose Jean.
The collection was inspired by the vintage Gap jeans Bieber has often been seen wearing, as well as her love for the simplicity of ’90s dressing. Each style comes in three different washes. It also includes personalized details like a “1996” branding on the hardware and back patches, referencing her birth year, as well as her signature printed inside the pocket lining.

During an official press release, Bieber explained the collaboration came naturally because Gap has always been part of her wardrobe. “Gap has been a part of my wardrobe since I was a kid, so this came together very organically,” she said. She also explained that the collection was influenced by the way people dressed in the ’90s, adding, “There was something so effortless about that era and the way people wore denim. We wanted the campaign and the collection to capture that same feeling in a way that felt modern, nostalgic and personal.”
The model and entrepreneur worked with Gap on the design process, focusing on the fit, proportions, and washes of each pair. The collection features two jean styles available in six washes made from 100% cotton rigid denim, with the jeans retailing for $89.

The campaign, photographed by Mario Sorrenti and styled by Alastair McKimm, pays tribute to Gap’s ’90s advertising era. Bieber appears in the campaign wearing the new denim styles paired with classic Gap T-shirts. Directed by Charlie Di Placido, she was seen in a recreated ’90s bedroom setting with The Cranberries’ song “Linger” as the soundtrack.
Bieber also shared that fit and wash are the most important things she looks for when choosing jeans. When asked how she plans to style The Hailey Jean, she revealed that she has been pairing them with a long-sleeved oversized white shirt and a small heeled sandal for summer. For the colder months, she said she would style them with a flat shoe or loafer.
