The campaign for the Chanel Spring 2022 collection is an ode to youth whose nonchalant grace resonates with the endless days of summer.

The swimming pool becomes the symbol of a liberated and sensual summer body. For luxuriating in its cool water, the bathing suit appears as a two-piece version in black with a white trim. Two-tone is further magnified as a full-length silhouette: the face hidden behind black sunglasses with wide white temples, the body outlined by a white one-piece bathing suit over a black top, completed with white ballet flats with black tips. Over her shoulder, Vivienne Rohner wears the new Chanel 22 bag: a large tote in shiny leather, ideal for carrying summer essentials.

Each silhouette reveals a multitude of details: shoe straps like ankle bracelets, duos of cuff bracelets, necklaces and jewelled belts worn in accumulation, patent leather Mary-Janes and coloured quilted bags. Revisited as mini or slit versions, checked skirts are paired with matching jackets rendering the multicolour tweed sublime, while a little dress in light grey denim jacquard is adorned with double Cs.

The campaign encapsulates a state of summer grace. Those languorous moments where long stretches of time can be devoted to reading or simply contemplating nature. In a window frame, a jacket enhanced with a multicolor crochet effect is worn open over a gold jersey bathing suit and jeans printed with colored butterflies.
