Every silhouette is both unique yet known, exploring the quintessential CHANEL summer wardrobe. Playfully incorporating a sailor collar with ecru tweed that is belted like gown over a swimsuit. Yellow denims with pink beads, a House emblem, of course, and sailor tripes, terracotta, and the sun hitting the water in the afternoon.

Evening silhouettes entail short lengths and precious lace with a leather option that displays ones back and shoulders- glamor, celebration, and capturing light from the sun and the light from within are prioritized.

Contrast is at the heart of the campaign with stark blacks and glowing whites that both serve as foundations for sparkle, lines and details. Accessories aid in the visuals with patent leather mules, big black sunglasses, woven totes, and a marvelously yellow mini CHANEL 25 bag that are ready for the getaway of your choice.

This campaign exists in a lifestyle of elegance, one that brings a certain sense of reality to fantasy.
