Fashion is the Brand's original activity. Two Haute Couture collections, six seasonal Ready-to-Wear and accessories collections and two sportswear and lifestyle-inspired capsule collections - Coco Beach and Coco Neige - offer a style that captures the spirit of the times and is part of women's everyday lives. A silhouette in motion and accessories are an essential part of the CHANEL allure and the Brand's timeless codes, immediately identifiable, imagined by Gabrielle Chanel.
