Chanel Cruise's Parisian rock parades in Los Angeles - Lifestyle

The girl dressed in Chanel Cruise who parades at nightfall against the backdrop of Paramount Studios in Los Angeles, California, is a Parisian rockettara, who comes directly from the eighties. Once again, fashion and cinema are bearers of the same dream, nourished by an energetic invitation to get in the spotlight and never leave the dance floor. The Cruise 2023/24 reveals the many facets of its colorful, joyful and elegant world already in the video that precedes the fashion show of the Cruise 2023/24 collection designed by Virginie Viard.
The well-known duo of photographers Inez & Vinoodh, experts in technology, has recreated in the film the eighties atmosphere that was breathed in America, between sandy beaches and nightlife glamour. At the center of the scene, the actress and ambassador of the maison, Alma Jodorowsky, in the video struggling with an aerobics session. The first pieces of the collection are revealed to the rhythm of an aerobics choreography: knit tops and mini shorts in pastel colors; a jewel-bikini top embroidered with comets and high-waisted terry tweed shorts; T-shirt motif sunset and black bermudas, accessorized with leg warmers, sneakers and oversized sunglasses. On the catwalk instead 71 outfits.
From the glamour of the twenties and thirties, Chanel Cruise passes to the rhythm of the seventies and eighties. "Between the homage to the glamour of the great movie stars and the evocation of the world of fun to live with aerobics, sports and roller skating, between the dream on one side and what you want to wear on the other on the other, it's all about balance," says Virginie Viard. So the mini-shorts and jumpsuits are covered with rhinestones, bustiers and tank tops are hyper-embroidered, sixties suits. Bathrobes and casual pajamas, Thirties shoes and their disco declinations, chine and terry crepe, swimsuits, wallet tops, leg warmers and evening dresses parade on the catwalk. Everything revolves around the collective imagination while the history and codes of Chanel are combined with dance. An explosion of vitality is transcribed into a multicolored palette carefully balanced between the timeless colors of the house, pastel shades and new bright shades. Beyond the emblematic black and white, there are therefore shades of pink, dear to the artistic director, as well as gold, which evoke the actresses of the cinema, the sparkling lights of the projectors that illuminate them and the eternal Californian sun. This sparkling energy is imbued with embroidery and prints, along with a range of patterns, from the most geometric to the most figurative: gold squares, black and gold chevrons, disco balls, milkshakes and roller skates, all in a spirit that Karl Lagerfeld would have liked, among beautiful coconut palms and sunsets over the Pacific Ocean and Sunset Boulevard.
