Very chic! Earlier today, Chanel designer Matthieu Blazy unveiled his new resort 2027 collection with a splashy and sun-drenched destination show in Biarritz, France. It was a fitting location for the event, given it went back to where it all began: it was here, in the seaside city, that Gabrielle Chanel opened her couture house in 1915.
As is customary with a Chanel show, a star-studded crowd came out for the event. Because the only thing better than a getaway fashion show? One that gathers the house’s most famous friends, of course. In the front row were celebrities such as Nicole Kidman, A$AP Rocky, Tilda Swinton, Marion Cotillard, Sofia Coppola, Michaela Coel, and more, all of whom showed up in their finest beachy-inspired (yet elegant) fashions—from chic little black dresses as per Kidman, to eye-popping shoulder bags a la Rocky’s pink slouchy style!
The A-list front row guests were captured exclusively by photographer German Larkin for Vogue while leaving the grand Hotel du Palais, as they departed for the show taking place at Le Casino Municipal. There, we got our first glimpses at their coastal ensembles, and took the opportunity to inquire around what inspired their styling choices. Plus, we asked some of the VIPs to share their favorite French phrases as well—because, why not?
Below, see all the celebrities at the Chanel Biarritz show, and read our exclusive conversations.
