The mother and daughter who came to the scene to help, one was uninhibited, the other was elegant, and they were all full of "Chanel on earth".
Virginia Said: "I knew early on that we would have a launch there, more precisely, at the beach hotel, which was Also Carl's dream. Looking out from this magnificent hotel, Karl's Villa La Vigie offers panoramic views. I will never forget my time there, the terrace and balcony, the huge umbrellas, the flower basket full of flowers, everything was beautiful. ”
Ms. Chanel herself lived in Monte Carlo in the 1920s and 1930s and owns a private villa, La Pausa.
Against the backdrop of this bondage and this beauty, we feel like we're in a 360° immersive show in a beach hotel in Monte Carlo.
This season's Chanel costumes can see a lot of classic tweed and silk jumpsuit pieces, lined with lightweight terry cloth, making the holiday light and pleasure very in place;
In particular, these sets of jumpsuits evolved from racing suits, combined with elements such as camellias, NO.5 and double C logo in Chanel DNA, must be the most charming presence in the F1 paddock.
A long white high neck pinstriped shirt-style dress embellished with sequins and floral embroidered busts is a tribute to Karl;
Inspired by the F1 black and white plaid flag, the printed dress is made from lightweight yarn, which is flowing and lightweight, and also outlines the slim body line;
There is also a midnight blue sequin embroidered dress, as well as the back top with wide-leg pants and beachfront dress, all of which interpret Chanel's luxurious beauty.
Here is the editor "interstitial" a knowledge: although this series is called "early spring vacation", it does not look like the clothes worn in early spring, generally summer clothes, what is the connection between this? In fact, the English name of this series is called Resort or Cruise Collection, which means "yacht vacation".
The series was originally created specifically for aristocratic celebrities. When the winter is cold, they go to the warm south to take a vacation, but at that time they sell winter clothes, so they have derived a summer clothing series that is listed in winter, called Resort (Cruise). It was also a pioneering concept proposed by Ms. Gabrielle Chanel 103 years ago.
Cruise Collection was designed to be lightweight, easy to wear and stylish, so the design starts with the concept of traveling light. The outfit interpreted by supermodel He Cong is particularly delicate and elegant, and the tweed jacket with the light tweed slip dress is very much in line with the concept of light clothing.
The fluid and shiny swimsuit set is innovatively interpreted in an asymmetrically designed black skirt or draped dress. "The first time I met Caroline was on the beach in Monaco. She wears a black draped dress with lightweight leggings and high heels. ”
For the "rich family", the equipment you choose when you are on vacation can show your taste. In addition to clothes, this is especially true for accessories such as shoes and bags. In the collection, the black satin shoes are paired with a slim rhinestone buckle, inspired by the toes of the Monte Carlo Ballet and the dancers.
The handbag presents a lot of Monaco's unique style, such as the shape of the tennis racket, roulette, etc., which is very cute and interesting;
There are also helmets worn by the cool F1 racing girls, which can also be interpreted into handbag-like decorations, which is very exciting.
Chanel's love affair with the sea has been together for a long time. Since The beginning of Ms. Gabrielle Chanel, the brand has forged a deep and lasting friendship with the endless blue sea.

In 1913, Gabrielle Chanel opened her first clothing store in Duvière. A delightful seaside resort that brings her the peace and quiet of the Normandy idyllic life.
Biarritz in 1915 was a famous seaside resort where ladies spent their days playing by the sea and sunbathing. Gabrielle Chanel responded to the waves with determination and decided to open her first personal branded fashion house here.
After Madame Chanel, the "sea" has always been Chanel's favorite element, and it has not changed for so many years. The seaside show that was very out of the circle before is from the brand's 2019 spring/summer series -
