If you think dressing up in tweed is boring, allow Penélope Cruz to prove you wrong.
The Academy Award–winning actress made a dazzling appearance to sit front row at Chanel's fall/winter 2023–24 runway show during Paris Fashion Week. As an ambassador of the iconic French luxury house, Cruz wore its signature tweed—with a playful twist.
Her tweed blazer dress embraced a feminine silhouette, with its deep V-neckline and flared miniskirt. Wispy white feathers tinged at the ends with hot pink or canary yellow adorned the bottom half of the dress, adding a colourful dimension to the navy blue piece. Other details included silver bejewelled buttons and a ruched black belt with a silver crystal buckle.
Cruz let the statement dress shine by keeping the rest of her ensemble to a classic black colour palette, carrying a quilted Chanel purse with a gold chain strap and wearing glossy pumps.

The actress is known for making fashion statements while clad in Chanel.
For instance, she attended last year's Tribeca Film Festival wearing a glistening one-shoulder evening gown from the brand. Sparkling black sequins covered the dress, and she further accessorised with the house's iconic quilted clutch, peep-toe heels, and a gold-and-diamond choker interwoven with black leather featuring Chanel's double-C logo.
On another occasion during the cinema festival, Cruz wore a hot pink Chanel look, consisting of a floor-length slipdress emblazoned with a square geometric pattern and a hot pink quilted box bag to match.
