“The sun, the architecture, the music and the dance: Marseille is also a very strong feeling of freedom for me. I was inspired by the codes of life, everyday life and everything that invites movement“, enthuses the artistic director of Chanel, Virginie Viard. If the prestigious house had come to seek the sun and the blue sky of the Phocaean city, it was somewhat showered this Thursday. The rain actually invited itself to the first show of the brand with intertwined Cs in Marseille, which took place on the roof of Le Corbusier. However, she did not fail to spice up this long-awaited fashion event. However, she had not received the precious one either. sesame, the beautiful cardboard invitation, in due form, that everyone was looking to get in recent days.
Chanel is not invited, whoever wants!
Some daring people even thought they could acquire it at the last minute. Others, more cheeky, tried to break in in vain. Security quickly put an end to their attempt. Missed again! It was to be expected… Chanel doesn’t want to be a guest. Around thirty Marseillais still took their troubles patiently, from 9 a.m., in the rain, on Boulevard Michelet – prohibited to traffic and parking for the occasion – and behind the security barriers to try to catch a glimpse of SCH, Phoebe Tonkin, Lily-Rose Depp, Charlotte Casiraghi… The VIPs expected at this first show. But here too, it’s still a failure!
