Craft Work

- – SOPHIE PERA

Chanel’s Métiers d’Art collection­s are always very special, as they celebrate the exquisitel­y detailed work of the petites mains and artisans who create all the embroideri­es, feathers, pleats, laces, gloves, hats, jewellery, shoes… you name it and Chanel has a dedicated workshop of the highest level. The historical savoir faire, eagleeyed dedication to detail and constant push for perfection is awe inspiring. Usually held in Paris’ Grand Palais, the recent 2021 ⁄ 22 show marked a departure and took place at le19M, a new building in the 19th arrondisse­ment which houses all the Métiers d’Art ateliers under one roof.
