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.

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.
The heat wave in Paris might have been overwhelming, but it didn’t stop guests from bringing their best. Fashion on the streets mirrored what was happening on the runways, with guests wearing similar textures, shapes and details.
Haute Couture Week, which takes place twice a year, remains one of the most exclusive events in fashion, with only designers approved by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode (FHCM) invited to present their collections. This season’s schedule included brands like Schiaparelli, Chanel, Dior, Viktor & Rolf, Iris Van Herpen, and Robert Wun, alongside newer additions like Standing Ground and Manish Malhotra. While some houses like Maison Margiela were absent, the week still delivered powerful presentations.

Throughout the week, designers unveiled collections filled with hand-stitched elements and bold textures. Gigi Hadid also made an impression on the runway in a black feather cocoon look, which offered a sense of ease in the middle of the heat.
But what happened outside the shows was just as interesting. Despite the hot temperatures, guests stepped out in variety of looks. From A-list names like Cynthia Erivo to Teyana Taylor, the streets of Paris turned into a second runway.

This week, Paris Couture Week for the Fall 2026 season officially kicked off, and on July 7, Chanel presented its latest collection at the Grand Palais in Paris, France. In his second haute couture presentation for the house, Matthieu Blazy drew inspiration from a storybook tied to Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel, using the brand’s own archives as inspiration.
On the runway, the collection was a mix of sheer fabrics, rich embroidery, and bejeweled finishes. There were also soft, whimsical elements, from pearl-covered pieces and butterfly-like details to bold floral designs and statement jewelry, giving the presentation a fairy tale feel.
The front row featured a number of familiar faces, including Pedro Pascal, Elizabeth Debicki, Alexa Demie, Teyana Taylor, and Sarah Pidgeon, each bringing their own take on Chanel dressing.

Bermuda shorts have moved from being a simple summer staple to a common pieces worn by celebrities this summer. Across runways and street style moments, these shorts are no longer considered casual wear but a versatile fashion item that can be dressed up for a range of occasion, depending on how they are styled. From tailored looks to relaxed denim fits, this season is all about how creatively they can be worn.

When paired with a button-down shirt or a fitted tank top, they create a clean office-appropriate look. Zendaya has been seen in tailored Bermuda styling, including a Moschino set styled with a white shirt.
Monochromatic Styling

Monochromatic styling is one of the easiest ways to style any outfit and Bermuda shorts are no exception. This has appeared in off-duty styling, with Margot Robbie wearing a silk Bermuda set from Beare Park, paired with mesh ballet flats and a structured shoulder bag.

This direction adds a more casual and street-style approach to the trend. They are styled with graphic tees, cropped tops, or basic tanks, and often finished with sneakers. A lighter take on this has been seen on Hailey Bieber, spotted in off-white denim styled with a white crop top. She paired it with socks and sandals, giving a subtle schoolgirl-inspired finish.
Neutral Styling

Bermuda shorts can go with neutral-toned tops such as beige, white, or brown. This keeps the focus on shape and proportion. Tailored white Bermuda shorts were styled dark green top, a baseball cap, and heels, giving a sporty yet polished feel that blends streetwear with a refined edge.

Light jackets are not limited to colder seasons, as they can work for summer styling when layered over Bermuda shorts. In some styling cases, a neutral trench coat has been styled with a white top tucked into Bermuda shorts in matching muted tones. This gave a layered finish.

Across recent runway collections, Bermuda shorts have also appeared in more experimental forms. Brands such as Balenciaga, Hermès, Bottega Veneta, and Alexander McQueen have included the silhouette into their collections, sometimes blending it with Capri-length cuts, creating hybrid styles. Demi Moore also wore a tailored look, where Bermuda shorts were styled in a structured, in Capri-inspired silhouette, showing how the trend continues to evolve between formal and casual interpretations.
