French luxury fashion house Chanel has announced that it will present its Cruise 2023 show in Monaco on May 5.
The city-state and microstate on the French Riviera is an integral part of its history, and a nod to Gabrielle Chanel who notably had her villa La Pausa built in 1929 in the heights of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. Monaco was also one of the favorite places of Karl Lagerfeld, who liked to go in the summer to his summer residence La Vigie, from the end of the 1980s to the beginning of the 2000s. More recently, in 2006, it was at the Opera de Monte-Carlo that the house displayed its Metiers d'art 2006-2007 collection.
'By choosing to present the 2022-23 cruise show in Monaco, Virginie Viard seals and prolongs Chanel's ties with the principality. This relationship is perfectly embodied by Charlotte Casiraghi, ambassador and spokesperson for the house since 2021, president and founder of Les Rencontres Philosophiques de Monaco and patron of the Jumping International de Monte-Carlo,' Chanel said in a statement.
