Virginie Viard&rsquo;s &lsquo;30s inspirations spring forth in the House&rsquo;s latest experimental couture presentation.

Chanel&rsquo;s Haute Couture collection, held at the &Eacute;trier de Paris, has come back this year as a continuation of the past year&rsquo;s couture presentation. The Fall/Winter collection for 2022/2023 takes on a playful palette of bright green, khaki, beige, pink, black and silver, and is a gentle balancing act of archival cues of the House and venturing beyond.

Spurred on by artists Xavier Veilhan, S&eacute;bastien Tellier, Charlotte Casiraghi, Pharrell Williams and model Vivienne Rohner, Creative Director Virginie Viard has taken the time to experiment with this &lsquo;30s-inspired collection. Lace, tulle and pleats flood the pieces in this collection, displaying Viard&rsquo;s ability to tie in classic House materiality and codes with visions of her own.&nbsp;

Per Mademoiselle Chanel&rsquo;s own direction for her brand in the &lsquo;30s, the collection features suits and long dresses that are simultaneously feminine and strong. The geometric shapes and graphic patterns emblematic of the &lsquo;30s make a comeback this season on ankle-length dresses and round-shouldered matching sets.&nbsp;

On the accessories front, necklaces take centre stage for the collection, from the High Jewellery collection &lsquo;1932&rsquo;, which is a tribute to &lsquo;Bijoux de Diamants&rsquo; designed by Mademoiselle Chanel in the titular year. Along with T-strap pumps, cowboy boots were strutted down the runway, bringing an unexpected juxtaposition to the long skirts in the collection. Top it all off with large men&rsquo;s hats and capelines with dramatic brims, contrasted with the feminine silhouettes.&nbsp;True to its core, Virginie Viard&rsquo;s Chanel adopts the signature points from the House and spins it in her own language, again producing a collection that is at once soft and assertive.&nbsp;
