Well, more like '90s-meets-'80s-meets-2021, but still.
would be the right time to revisit that period in the French house's rich history, down to the staging of the runway. Chanel stripped back its typically ornate set pieces in favor of a simple black tent and black folding chairs for press and buyers. Models preened and pranced all at once down a catwalk lined with photographers; some even — gasp! — smiled.
"I used to love the sound of flashbulbs going off at the shows in the eighties, when the models were on a raised runway," Viard wrote in the show notes. "I wanted to recapture that emotion." All the fun throwbacks in the world won't work if the clothes don't support them, and in this case, they mostly do. Viard didn't quite go as revealing as her predecessor, but those mini tweed sets are there, as are the black-and-white bathing suits . Skirts sling low at the hips and dresses are cut out at the waist to show off a flash of the skin underneath; knit crop tops and boy shorts will provide street style fodder for the braver young things who wear Chanel.
