The complicity of the now late Lagerfeld and Chanel Métiers d’art takes form as a perpetual creative dialogue…

which illustrates the sumptuous elegance of the silhouettes and accessories of the collection.

It represents a graphic reinterpretation of Egyptian paintings…

with a delicate inlay of feathers that combines a deep red, black and blue lapis lazuli…

applied in a plastron necklace of tiny flowers in denim and golden leather and cut with a rough border and highlighted with accounts.

The thigh boots made by the House of Massaro are painted with gold or neon pink graffiti…

and their heels with gold jewellery highlighted with enamel and enhanced with cabochons.

The silhouettes vibrate under the sun, with optical lines that are almost kinetic.

“New York, it is an energy and a melting pot of cultures, it is very stimulating,” said Lagerfeld about the collection, multiplying the tributes to the streets of New York.

A dress which look slightly painted with a spray.

A denim aviator jacket with patches sewn in golden thread is combined with a printed urban art leather dress.

The forms are pure, geometric and distinct: a graphic force so appreciated by the stylistic grammar of the house.

The lines are clear and simple in true Chanel-spirit.

The collection holds everything from street art to art deco and antiquity.

Flat chains with rhinestones that combine the colours of the urban frescoes with the graphic lines of the skyscrapers… As a benevolent sign, a piece of Chanel Art Deco jewellery, dating from the 1920s.


The collection will be available in boutiques from June.
