Chanel Spring Summer 2026: A Dazzling Tribute to Timeless Elegance at Paris Fashion Week
As the grandeur of Paris Fashion Week unfolded, all eyes turned to the iconic Chanel runway, where creative director Matthieu Blazy unveiled his latest masterpiece for Spring Summer 2026. Set against the backdrop of the historic Grand Palais, the show transcended mere fashion, offering a multilayered narrative that celebrates the legacy of the brand while embracing contemporary silhouettes and textures.
The collection opened with a striking display of classic Chanel tweeds, reimagined in vibrant hues reminiscent of a blooming Parisian spring. Blazy’s adept hand brought new life to this signature fabric, weaving intricate patterns and playing with proportions that flirt with both structure and flow. Models glided down the runway in oversized blazers and tailored skirts, accentuated by statement belts—a clever nod to the art of dressing that has been a hallmark of Chanel’s ethos.
A sea of crisp whites, soft pastels, and bold primary colors created a visual feast, capturing the essence of a sun-drenched Parisian day. Pieces were layered with sheer fabrics, revealing glimpses of the skin beneath and adding a contemporary twist to the timeless elegance associated with Chanel. Floral embellishments adorned dresses and jumpsuits, offering a romantic touch that felt both playful and sophisticated.
Accessories played an integral role in this season’s narrative. Signature quilted handbags were reimagined in unexpected color combinations, while oversized pearl necklaces and chunky bracelets added a striking contrast to the streamlined silhouettes. Footwear, too, saw a delightful twist, with strappy sandals and platform shoes commanding attention on the runway, harmonizing comfort and chic in true Chanel style.
As the show progressed, it became clear that Blazy drew inspiration from the duality of nature—celebrating the transformative beauty of spring while paying homage to the brand’s luxurious heritage. The earthy tones and intricate floral designs juxtaposed seamlessly with pieces that echoed urban sophistication, showcasing Chanel’s ability to bridge worlds. Each look seemed to tell a story, weaving a tapestry of femininity and strength.
The ambient soundtrack enhanced the experience, setting a sublime tone that captivated the audience. The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation as models ascended and descended the striking staircase, a nod to classic Parisian architecture that added drama to the runway.
Closing the show, a series of breathtaking gowns adorned with cascading layers and intricate embroidery left spectators in awe. Each piece captured the essence of modern romance, challenging conventions while remaining deeply rooted in Chanel’s artistic identity.
In a season marked by innovation and reflection, Matthieu Blazy’s Spring Summer 2026 collection for Chanel resonates with an elegance that is both forward-thinking and profoundly respectful of tradition. It serves as a reminder of why Chanel remains an enduring symbol of luxury and sophistication in the fashion world. With this collection, Blazy has not only carried the torch forward but has ignited it anew, illuminating the path for modern femininity in an ever-evolving landscape.

Todos los planetas se enteraron de que se presentaba esta colección, pero muy decepcionante en mi opinión. No me gustaron las faldas todas con la misma abertura, no parecen cómodas ni elegantes, los simples e insulsos pantalones y camisas, pero sobre todo no me gustaron el diseño de la mayoría de las chaquetas y los estampados de cuadros, tampoco hay vestidos bonitos. Todo el público se puso en pie, y realmente no entiendo muy bien porqué tanta celebración.
deslumbrante, cheio de vigor, matthieu blazy mostra que tem muita bala na agulha! mal posso esperar pela alta-costura!
MMM NO
Where is Chanel? 🤦♀️ white shirt really where’s the lace where’s the knit wear and jersey ? Where is the Camellia? Should I continue?
Good collection, DNA's symbols are here. Chanel's Spirit is revived.
Beautiful
Chanel is back. So fresh. So new. Extraordinarily.
Bravo!
that did not look like a collection of the worlds most expensive clothes. some of the stripes did not match up on the sides of the check skirts. sleeved not sewn in properly. only a few outfits at the end were given the Chanel treatment. most everything looked like it can already be bought on the high street. shoes so uncomfortable one model had to take them off and walk bare foot. only one dress (black with flowers) had a hem that walked amazingly. bags boring and dull. the first few woollen suits were just dull, dull dull. if i was one of the world richest women, i wouldn't buy. if i was the daughter of the worlds richest woman i wouldn't buy. if i was the granny of the worlds richest woman i wouldn't buy. its really not much better than the stuff Karl's replacement was making. with all the hype surrounding the new hire, i really expected more. Galliano would have been the right man for the job. this new guy doesn't have the originality.
He totally changed chanel's color theme
Chanel's color theme was very light
He converted into dark colors
Girl what is this
This is gucci sabato, miu miu and little bit of Chanel dna blended like it’s just not appealing
Idk much about fashion but if some one say its this or that i believe it it just doesn't scream channel
Where is Chanel ? So sad
The simplest DNA in fashion and cannot even accomplish and not even Cool
why one model holding one shoe on her hand and wear only one shoe on her feet?
Wow!!
nothing new! not today!!!! disappointed ! T
I hope that clown Matthieu gets fired. He's definitely not someone who can create collections for Mademoiselle's fashion house
Even worse than Virginie Viard. Too sad . Karl will be forever missed 😢
新的呢格紋布料質感很美,看起來質感改變後的布料設計發展的可能性更為多元。的確有幾件非常好看的搭配與設計。
但是我還是覺得有一個主設計師很重要。雖然Chanel的設計團隊在製衣方面的工藝精湛。但一個 collection 若是缺乏 coherence,這個 collection 就沒有辦法利用衣服說出一個打動人心的故事。秀場的呈現也很重要,但故事若沒有核心主旨,秀場的布置(尤其是燈光)很難呈現出這些衣服的特色。主設計師可以主導一個collection 的主要走向和故事的完整性。
我雖不是製衣專業人士,但故事説不好跟故事沒有辦法完整的被呈現,絕對是行銷上的一大傷害。
Fresh, exciting, new takes on tweed jackets, on classic flap, ….
Congratulations Mathieu & Chanel artisans team 👏🏻👏🏻
✌🏻🇧🇪
Phenomenal. This is how you revitalize a house! Its still Chanel, but just enough. This house NEEDS evolution! They can still make cashmere twinsets and tweed jackets for their clientele, but the SHOWS need new and exciting fashion. We just need this momentum to continue. Best debut of the season, and yes that includes Demna at Gucci and Louise at BV.
First time to see Chanel copying Zara
The beginning of the collection was bland & boring. The jacket & trousers & skirts pretty awful.
Got better towards the end, with the tweed & color combinations.
All in all a disappointing collection.
MMM PARA PRIMERA COLECCIÓN…. BIEN., PERO NO ME GUSTA QUE ESTAS MEGA MARCAS SE TRATEN DE PARECER TANTO ENTRE SI. GUCCI, VALENTINO, BALENCIAGA TODOS POR EL MISMO CAMINO. QUIZA TIEMPO AL TIEMPO. NO LO VEO MUY CHANEL
Отлично!!!Очень удивил!Коко и Карл тоже начинали не сразу.Я снова захотела в бутик Шанель🎉
The music, the set.. amazing!! The collection.. not sure yet but he gives something different perhaps the new Chanel. It makes me want to see more from him and curious whats next. Congratulations!
Successful debut. Great collection. Finally for the first time in my life i love a Chanel Collection …
dated
A very strong debut from Matthieu Blazy. Far from imitating or emulating the old-fashioned Chanel, he has presented his own modern interpretation.
It looks like clothing you can get from the super sale back section of JC Penny's. This has been one of the worst shows I've seen. The only thing going for it was the planetary setting.
Finally!!! A Chanel collection to be excited about! This is leagues BETTER than whatever we got when Virginie was the creative director. The matronly looks are gone for good and the the classy, yet sexy and flirty Chanel girl is back! 🍾🥂
Yeah, I miss Karl…
This 💩looks like terrible Taiwanese Channel knockoffs purchased from Amazon. You know, Channel, with 2 L's or a backward C. BOOO! Get off the stage! 🍅
aesthetics of relief
이번패션위크 중 제일기대했건만….제일 실망…
Jesus Christ What a snoozer of a collection 🥱
Most of my skirts turned out to be too uncomfortable to wear — I have to be careful whether I’m sitting, standing, or walking, so I don’t think I’ll be able to wear them often.
