Manchester, Chanel looks good on you! That time Chanel came to Manchester … link to Instagram reel: just a bit of a mash-up … it’s a great compliment to Manchester that @chanelofficial selected the city for this major international event – Chanel Metiers d’Art – a celebration of the fashion house’s incredible artisans, craftsmanship & masters of each area of their collections (embellishments, leather. tweed etc) from around the globe and many based in the U.K. …it has really put Manchester on the world map in the fashion world … it’s a huge deal and will be a boost to the economy in many ways.
Yes, to some, elements looked nostalgic but the focus was on the city’s youth, verve and energy… while recognising our city’s amazing contribution to music and pop culture … Notably, the soundtrack to the show & project was superb … curated by @michelgaubert 💥… thanks @markholgatenyc from US Vogue for lunch … such a pleasure to show you how Manchester has changed from the excellent terrace view @20storiesmcr … also, hats off to whoever did the Bet Lynch from Corrie meme … quality Manc humour! 🐝 … REEL here: collette on instagram
