Chanel cruise 2021–2
- 2 years ago
From Chanel:
It was under the sign of Jean Cocteau that Virginie Viard began to think about the Chanel cruise 2021–2 collection. ‘Because Gabrielle Chanel was close to Cocteau, and I love the film Le testament d'Orphée (Testament of Orpheus). In particular this magnificent scene: a man with a black horse’s head descends into the Carrières de Lumières, his silhouette cut out against the very white walls.’ Destination: the Carrières de Lumières, in Les Baux-de-Provence, for a highly graphic show, ‘because the simplicity, the precision and the poetry of Cocteau's film made me want to create a very clean collection, with a very distinct two-tone, made up of bright white and deep black.’
