<p><span>For Spring/Summer 2023, Chanel explores elegance and modernity in a casual yet formal Chanel look.</span></p>

<p>Chanel opened its Spring/Summer 2023 show with a cinematic experience voiced by Kirsten Stewart. Images from the 1961 film <i>Last Year Marienbad</i>&nbsp;by Alain Resnais were screened at the Palais &Eacute;ph&eacute;m&egrave;re before the models took the runway.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>In this collection, Virgine Viard explores the freedom of movement and expression through the cannon of "allure."</p>
<p>&ldquo;Our identities are lifelong, evolving art projects. To know who you are is to adopt an animal subject to change. It&rsquo;s not a fixed notion. The mythologies that define us, that unite us, they&rsquo;re ours to create,&rdquo; narrated Stewart before the show commenced. For Viard, &ldquo;allure&rdquo; is an inner attitude, a step towards one&rsquo;s fulfillment, and never making a spectacle of itself, it is elegance in motion swirling in modernity and lightness. Thus, Viard&rsquo;s &ldquo;allure&rdquo; translates to the collection across easy, loose silhouettes made of silk and chiffon layers. The pearl and feather embellishments appear to add lightness despite looking heavy in the garments.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></p>

      <p>White and black colors painted the Chanel Spring/Summer 2023 collection through button-down tweed jackets and baggy shorts. In Viard&rsquo;s imagined collage of glamor, the essence of Stewart&rsquo;s style influenced the collection with pieces that are cool and edgy with lower-slung silhouettes. Viard&rsquo;s modernity took a less formal approach to the Chanel look by incorporating mini handbags, wide-leg pants, and flats.</p>
