Et maintenant: The Chanel catwalk for Autumn/Winter 2023/2024. We LOVE it and it is VERY Chanel in all details and looks!
Watch and enjoy: 
Last year, the fashion house CHANEL opened its fashion show with Charlotte Casiraghi, Prince Albert of Monaco's niece, riding her horse down the catwalk. Charlotte is a dressage rider and an ambassador for the fashion house. This playful action led to a lot of criticism because the animal welfare organizations said that a horse does not belong on the catwalk.
A few days ago, Stella McCarthy, fashion designer, vegan and animal lover par excellence, decided to do it completely differently. Horse-friendly and with a fashion message:  The Chanel-style bag is very similar to the style icon of the Chanel bag 2.55. How can you make this bag yourself? It's less difficult than you think. The bag has the construction of a envelope bag and offers four compartments. The instructions are in the Dutch language but the photos are easy to follow.
As if on a village square, the stage is set for a show. Created by artist Xavier Veilhan, eleven monumental animals made of wood, cardboard and paper reveal models one-by-one.
Top hat, bow tie, white gloves, laced boots, satin cape, pleated skirt, double-breasted jacket or with tails, tuxedo shirt, sequins, short shorts, petticoats: it is in the poetry of majorettes that Virginie Viard draws the imagination of her Spring-Summer 2023 Haute Couture collection.

Let start: Part 4: The Side front! 
Bags, wax coats, Cosplay costumes, infinite recycling, horse hair fabric and Dirndl dresses. It is all on this website. Because, most of you will recognize it; once you're married to your sewing machine and devoted to making things yourself, nothing is impossible to make yourself. Well... almost nothing.
But now back to basics. Well.... you can't exactly call the Chanel-Style jacket basic. We continue with the excellent video series from Elena Tran of Baudekin Studio. This time about making buttonholes and buttons yourself. 
This second video of Baudekin Studio is about the front of the Chanel-Style jacket. How to quilt and tape the front? It is a delicate job and characterize the Chanel-jacket.
Elena Tran shows us how we can do it ourselves. The video is great and even beginners will understand the perfect instructions. Let's start the best sewing-projects of all!
While we still have to prepare for Autumn and Winter, the models are already walking the catwalks for spring and summer. A time that still seems so far away. But we can certainly enjoy the beautiful show of Chanel and gain inspiration to get started ourselves.
We can't make them, we can't create them and we certainly can not sew them: Chanel Jewellery! But you will enjoy this lovely video. Maybe you will get some inspiration for styling or sewing a lovely Chanel-Style jacket...

Take a look at the show and enjoy! 
The Chanel Resort Cruise show is happening again. In Monaco! Take a look at the bright colors, the sporty shapes and The Classics.
A catwalk at the Monaco Beach, yes well.. why not? Enjoy the next video:  Occasion wear sounds a bit old fashioned, but it certainly isn't. Occasion jackets, pants, dresses and skirts are clothes which have a little bit more (luxury) appearance, making them suitable for festive occasions. Think of weddings, the holidays, birthdays, galas or dinners.
With Easter just around the corner, this jacket is ideal to make and wear. After all, Easter is often a bit unpredictable in terms of weather. It should be feeling like spring, nice and warm, but it can also be cold. A jacket, to wear over a dress or blouse, is a clever idea. After all, you can also take it off and hang it over your shoulders. Let this jacket also be special in terms of finish and lining... however you wear it: it will look timeless and classy.  What's in the name? Cardigan or Jacket or Cardigan Jacket? Are we talking about a cardigan, a jacket or a cardigan jacket ?
Everybody wants a Chanel jacket, or to make an Inspired Chanel jacket. Or cardigan? In the world of the Haute Couture, the Fashion or the DIY- world, we all know 'the Chanel Jacket'. It is the Iconic one with the fringes, the trims, the black and white lining or the short black tweed jacket. Mostly we are talking about the 'little French Jacket', or the Chanel Jacket or the Chanel Cardigan...  Haute Couture means "high sewing" or "high dressmaking" or "high fashion". It is the creation of exclusive custom-fitted clothing. Also mentioned: high-end-fashion. In either terms, most important is the fact the clothes are constructed by hand from start to finish.

Enjoy!  THE CHANEL STYLE is very recognizable, but it is less defined as well. Previously, the association with the "Chanel" brand was mainly a a perfect picture and an identical style. Nowadays the style is less conservative and sleek. The basic elements are still present, but there is much more interpretation for individual interpretation.
Ambassadors and friends of the House Chanel celebrated cinema during the 74th edition of the Festival de Cannes.
