According to Tim Lim, group fashion director, Meta Media Holdings, &quot;It&#8217;s not just a new era &#8211; it is a paradigm shift. We have to rethink everything we have taken for granted in Chanel.&quot; This change is evident in the way the brand&#8217;s women are portrayed, with expansive inner worlds and a sense of magical chaos.<\/p>\n<h2>Redefining Chanel&#8217;s Style<\/h2>\n<p>The collection features a range of unique and distorted designs, including chopped-off jackets, crooked skirts, and frayed tweed hems. These elements come together to create a cool and modern look that is just the beginning of a new era for the brand. As Tim Lim notes, &quot;a jacket that is chopped off in the waist, a skirt crooked, a franted tweed hem, the scarecrow dress, these desperate, distorted pockets &#8230; so cool and it is just the beginning.&quot;<\/p>\n<h2>Emphasis on Materiality<\/h2>\n<p>Emilie Hammen, director at Palais Galliera, Parisian Museum, highlights the importance of materiality in the collection. &quot;Gabrielle Chanel had an original understanding of materials knitting paths for daywear, all-over sequins instead of decorative drugs in evening clothes.&quot; The brand&#8217;s approach to design emphasizes the relationship between the body and the dress, with a focus on modernist principles.<\/p>\n<h2>Exceptional Craftsmanship<\/h2>\n<p>The collection has been praised for its exceptional craftsmanship, with a focus on lightness, modernity, and sustainability. Stefano Tonchi, editorial director of Harper&#8217;s Bazaar Italia, notes that &quot;the lightness of the clothing was obvious and the modernity of the proportions was daring and yet sustainable.&quot; The designer&#8217;s approach is characterized by a love of experimentation with fabric, embroidery, and technology, rather than a focus on trends.<\/p>\n<h2>A Classical Modernist Approach<\/h2>\n<p>The collection&#8217;s design approach has been described as classical modernism, with a focus on clean lines, simple proportions, and a lack of irony or cynicism. As Stefano Tonchi notes, &quot;no creative director in the 2000 -thoughts: no tricks, no messages, no casting or set twist, no films and celebrities. Do I dare say classical modernism? And no irony, no cynicism, a lot of love for the art of fashion.&quot; This approach marks a significant shift in the brand&#8217;s direction, one that is characterized by a deep love of the art of fashion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A New Era for Chanel The recent collection has marked a significant shift in the brand&#8217;s approach to fashion.
