NIGHT OUT BY KARSTEN POHLAI

Pastoral, understated, refined, the CHANEL Fall-Winter 2025/26 Haute Couture collection is a celebration of nature and wide-open spaces.

В этом году мир отмечает столетие ар-деко — стиля, достигшего своего расцвета в 1920–1930-х годах и оказавшего огромное влияние на архитектуру, изобразительное искусство, дизайн интерьеров и, конечно же, моду. Этой блестящей во всех отношениях эпохе посвящена новая выставка «Я люблю ар-деко» в рижском Музее моды, на которой представлена одежда и аксессуары тех лет.

“Whispers of Summer” is a visual ode to the quiet elegance of summer. Through flowing fabrics, earthy tones, and handcrafted accessories, this story captures the raw and radiant beauty of the season. With a focus on natural textures and sun-kissed skin, the images blend sensuality with softness, celebrating femininity in its most intuitive form.

Saint Light Jewelry presents a new collection of jewelry called “Architecture of Love” that combines design elements and symbolism that reflects different aspects of love through form and structure.

«I have chosen the person I wanted to be and I am,» said Gabrielle Chanel, a powerful statement that inspired her namesake fragrance. The floral, solar scent carries in its wake a reminder of the passion and liberated spirit of this remarkable woman, whose bold ambition was driven by unwavering self-confidence. The purest expression of her personality, the GABRIELLE CHANEL fragrance empowers women to choose freedom: the freedom to be themselves and the authors of their own stories.

ETERNAL BEAUTY

Paris transformed into a playground of haute couture glamour when the Musée des Arts Décoratifs hosted its annual Bal d'Été, an evening that rivals the Met Gala in both sophistication and star power. This year's celebration honored the centenary of Art Deco, with filmmaker Sofia Coppola orchestrating an event that seamlessly blended artistic heritage with contemporary elegance. The house of Chanel dominated the night, showcasing why it remains the ultimate destination for red carpet royalty.
