During Paris Haute Couture Week, Chanel presented its 2026/27 Haute Couture collection. Creative director Matthieu Blazy found inspiration in a fairy tale book discovered in Gabrielle Chanel's library.
The collection transforms fairy tale motifs into refined details – lace resembling beanstalks, handbags shaped like bears, and buttons symbolizing transformation from an ugly duckling to a swan.
The fashion house emphasized that this is not an escape into fantasy but a reminder of the power of imagination in daily life. The collection combines Chanel’s legendary craftsmanship with modern romanticism, creating a fashion fairy tale for adults.
