For the CHANEL Fall-Winter 2022/23 Ready-to-Wear collection, presented in a space at the Grand Palais Éphémère swathed entirely in tweed, there are jackets in psychedelic colours, others that are subtly masculine or slightly oversize, trousers in black panne velvet, tight skirts worn with long socks and pointed pumps with a mini stiletto heel in patent leather, as well as boots and thigh-high boots in black or beige rubber.
“Devoting the entire collection to tweed is a tribute,” says Virginie Viard. “We followed the footsteps of Gabrielle Chanel along the River Tweed, to imagine tweeds in the colours of this landscape.
