A BLAST FROM THE PAST!

Fresh and witty with the known elements. With these words the latest Spring/Summer 2021 collection by Chanel. Seems like Virginie Viard has found her design signature that corresponds so in-tuned with the classic Chanel aesthetic. The Parisian chic with the note of the famous Gabrielle Chanel tomboy-ish approach was the highlight and the leading line in the creative signature for this collection.

The famous jersey piece was there incorporated on almost every outfit but this time it was more softened and voluminous on the shoulders and light accentuated on the waistline. There were plenty of t-shirts and pullovers with the CHANEL logo all over it. Paired with the Bermudas alike trousers were reminiscing the perfect French-style uniform.

With the plenty of micros and mini accessories from the bags to the bags-alike-phone-chargers, the collection was an homage to the Chanel aesthetic and those topics for which this house has been known for: the subtle feminine side paired with the high elegance but in the very wearable and approachable mannerism. For Chanel, this was the look back but in a good way, or to be more precise, a blast from the past, the secure fit that goes perfectly with the expectations of the old but it is modern and interesting enough for the new customers.

Honestly, Chanel never goes out of style. And with this collection that could be seen as the playful manifesto of it, it has brought us another exciting and beautiful collection full of amazing pieces and style inspirations! 

What do you think about this collection? Do you find it very Chanel and which looks do you like the most?

FASHION, THANK YOU!

Fashion must go on and with that motto, this season's Fashion Weeks have been altered. Mostly in the web versions, editorials, or live stream options, only a few of the fashion houses have organized the shows with the public.

One of them was the one by Valentino. It is amazing to see how many collections, including this one too, have become very low key but with a huge romantic twist. Seems like in this COVID situation, fashion has become very gentle, almost assertive but in a good way.

This collection was all of that and more. The simplicity kept in the usually very show-stopping approach, this time has involved in the level of light and sleek silhouette that was very ethereal and airy, very soft and luminous, like Pierpaolo Piccioli has decided to soften all the glamour giving us an invitation to the reachable and so easy wearable ensembles.

Dresses in mostly long versions, with little details on them, we're in the correlation with the coloristic themes that were very in the aquatic kind of mode. 

The world and life, in general, have stepped into another level of  the COVID era, very uncertain times are here a very long time for now, so the return of the fashion in its own rail tracks has been really something to be happy for and for that Fashion, Thank You!

What do you think about the current fashion scene, do you miss the typical fashion or this one in the "new normal" era that we hope we will not be stuck forever?

Thank you for your attention!
