The Chanel Resort 2025 collection was imagined by Virginie Viard combines an underwater reverie with reflections of the sun through embroideries, diving hoods, sequinned jackets and swimwear.

Diving hoods with press studs are thus about to become part of the House’s repertoire, starting with the jacket of an aniseed-green Chanel suit, or on the collar of dresses reminding of the sixties. In addition to its hood and press studs, the collection revisits the classic traits of the sweatshirt, offering its own version in fish-printed chiffon. Running Bermuda shorts trimmed with embroidered braid, tweed cycling shorts and oversized jackets complete a collection that embraces the dynamics of movement. The same wind of freedom blows over a white flounced skirt and a floral-embroidered sheath dress.

With bloomers, briefs and side-opening dresses, the collection is in a summery mood, as demonstrated by the waffle fabric skirts, petticoats and bodices in ivory ladder lace and patchworks of broderie anglaise. Footwear includes terry towelling flip-flops with platform soles.

Shouldered peacoats in white or black and white, and black patent shoes pay tribute to menswear. The collection also plays with layering: shirt collars, French cuffs and jackets are worn over or under other jackets and outfits. The little black dress is revisited here with the bustier in jersey with straps and the top of a swimsuit embroidered with little flowers.
