Chanel Invited Students To Experience the Cruise 2019 Show In Paris

Chanel has truly come up with just a few of the most spectacular show settings each fashion season. From a backdrop of a flowing waterfall, to a nine metre iceberg imported from Scandinavia to Paris, and now a luxury liner inside the Grand Palais for the latest cruise 2018/9 collection, Karl Lagerfeld is no stranger to creating cinematic wonderlands.

And this season, Chanel opened its exclusive doors to 500 students at the Grand Palais, 2 days after the 2019 Cruise collection was open to media. The fashion seminar included a masterclass with the President of Fashion at Chanel, Bruno Pavlovsky, which was hosted by French Journalist Elisabeth Quin, and dealt with the themes of creation, the creative dialogue between Karl Lagerfeld, his studio, the CHANEL ateliers and the artisans at the Maisons d’art, and finally, his visions of creativity and product creation.
