Chanel Métiers d’Art Show 2026

Chanel’s annual Métiers d’Art show remains one of fashion’s most revered traditions; a celebration dedicated to the extraordinary craft of the maison’s artisanal ateliers, from Lesage embroidery to Goossens metalwork and Lemarié feathers. Unlike the usual transitional collections on the fashion-week calendar, Métiers d’Art stands apart as a poetic homage to savoir-faire, fusing heritage with innovation in spectacular, location-led storytelling.

This year marked Matthieu Blazy’s first Métiers d’Art since his acclaimed Spring/Summer 2026 debut, and he chose to transport the house into a new era by staging the show beneath New York City in an actual subway station. The set buzzed with urban electricity, blending grit and grandeur in a way that felt unmistakably modern Chanel. And, quite naturally, celebrities arrived in looks that defined the maison’s next chapter, complete with sunglasses we adore.

This landmark show also broke major news: Chanel has appointed A$AP Rocky as its newest male ambassador, following in the footsteps of Timothée Chalamet and Pharrell Williams. He attended in a jade tweed jacket and a pair of Ray-Ban Mega Clubmaster RB 0316S 6826/J5 from Ray-Ban’s Blacked Out Collection.

Longtime ambassador and monochrome maestro Wang Yibo wore black CHANEL 5509 C622/T8 sunglasses with gold chain accents.

The ever-theatrical Christine Baranski stunned in black CHANEL 5554 C622/T8, the gold double-C detailing glinting beautifully.

Honey Dijon paired her brown micro plaid jacket (complemented her locks beautifully!) with black CHANEL 5556U C622/S4, our latest Winter 2025 drop.

Jessie Buckley, very much in character with her tousled pixie cut, chose black acetate and tweed CHANEL 5514 C622/S6.

Chanel's exclusive eyewear also made its presence known.

Ambassador G-Dragon arrived in CHANEL 9184.

Lupita Nyong’o. She was also spotted the day prior in CHANEL 5511 C622/S8 round sunglasses with chain detailing.

 Whitney Peak wore grailed CHANEL 9188 shields.

WNBA queen Angel Reese chose CHANEL 9164 cat-eyes.

Teyana Taylor teased a pair of Chanel's Exclusive sunglasses with pin-like temple detailing.

Alek Wek opted for CHANEL 9185, a wider, sleeker take on G-Dragon’s frame.

Chanel’s Métiers d’Art continues to weave together the house’s storied heritage with its ever-evolving vision, celebrating exceptional craftsmanship while quietly steering the style vocabulary of the future. True to the maison’s spirit, its eyewear reflects this enduring beauty... pieces that feel modern yet unmistakably iconic, designed to be worn, loved and handed down with effortless grace.

Chanel Resort 2026 Singapore Show

The peak of Autumn ended in spectacular style with the Chanel Resort 2026 show, held at the historic Raffles Hotel Singapore on 5 November, where the maison’s muses and ambassadors brought a new definition of inter-changeable season elegance.

Tilda Swinton wore two elegant looks: a gold tweed jacket for the evening and a white Cubano shirt for the short social media campaign, accompanied by black CHANEL 5417 1794/S8 sunglasses with radiant red piping (a blink-and-you-miss-it moment).

Thai-British actress Rebecca Patricia Armstrong debuted a black-and-white piece from the upcoming collection in the social media campaign, and for the show, she oozed ease while embracing signature pearl detailing on her jacket and chain detailing on her CHANEL 5515 C622/48 sunglasses.

Supermodel Liu Wen opted for the sophisticated CHANEL 5509 C622/T8 square sunglasses, also adorned with the maison’s signature chain.

RAYE, ever the soulful muse, wore CHANEL 5416 1794/S8 cat-eye sunglasses in black and red. Bold yet unmistakably elegant.

Thai actress Aokbab Chutimon Chuengcharoensukying (an ambassador of the house who also walked the runway!) debuted butterfly-shaped sunglasses featuring a mother-of-pearl logo detail from the Resort 2026 collection, available exclusively at Chanel.

Taiwanese-American actress An Hsu graced us elegantly in black CHANEL 5540 C888/S4 sunglasses, leaving us longing for a closer look at the beautiful studded detailing along the top of the frame.

Chanel’s fashion shows have long stood as a testament to the maison’s unparalleled ability to blend heritage with forward-thinking creativity; each collection a dialogue between past elegance, present craftsmanship and the future of style.

Whether staged in a grand palace, a transformed city landmark or, as Métiers d’Art 2026 proved, deep beneath New York’s streets, Chanel continues to reimagine its world with cinematic grandeur and emotional resonance. And at the heart of this storytelling sits the house’s iconic eyewear: pieces that transcend trends, elevate every silhouette and remain timeless companions to be treasured season after season.

Au Revoir,
