by in Extra Dirty Martini.

Extra Dirty Martini isn’t just a drink, it’s an attitude.
It hits hard, but with grace. 2 oz (60 ml) of premium gin, the spine. Cold, clean, uncompromising. 1/3 oz (10 ml) of dry vermouth, the sly twist, subtle but sharp. 1 oz (30 ml) or more of olive brine, the dirty truth, bold and unapologetic.

No garnish.
No apology.

At Paris Fashion Week, opened the season’s most anticipated debut beneath colossal celestial bodies: Saturn with its rings, a full solar system suspended above a jet-black, mirror-bright runway, claiming the stage with theater from the very first second.
Blazy, now at the helm of the French maison, described confronting the archive as a rollercoaster: “It was too much beauty, almost; I didn’t know where to take it from,” he recalled. “The good thing with the codes of Chanel is that you can also reduce them. They still look like Chanel.”
It felt as if he had taken the entire leather-goods universe, spun it at a thousand revolutions and stressed the skins until they became hypermodern, almost cosmic. Real, low, softly drawn waistlines; living, animated flowers; a beauty that felt honest and powerful,
everything seemed to declare a single, fearless message:
Chanel no longer wannabe, now meant to be.

A collection that does not simply revisit heritage but rewrites it, setting the house on a trajectory that feels both inevitable and completely new.

“For this first CHANEL show, I wanted to do something quite universal, like a dream, something outside of time, and I was fascinated by the universe of stars, a theme so dear to the House. We all observe the same sky, and I think it provokes the same emotions in us.” Matthieu Blazy

Runway Diaries:
Tom Ford SS26, Paris Fashion Week

Seduction as dialogue, desire as essence.
Vertical silhouettes that reveal fragility and power, skin through lace, flashes of leather and metal, colours that oscillate between midnight blue, sensual browns, sudden yellows and pastel light.

“Nobility is not a crest, but a way to carry oneself, believing in beauty as a means of resistance, and using it as such.” .a

“Les enfants d’Adam font partie d’un corps…”
Sadi, Gülistan

From the rose as a symbol of resistance to the body as a collective, Burç Akyol crafts a narrative of politics and poetry. Fear and beauty, generosity, independence, pride, and passion converge in a collection that rejects time and gender.

“Passion is integrity and resistance, I repeat, there is dignity in that.”
Burç Akyol

Circularity shapes the runway: past pieces revived in collaboration with eBay Endless Runway, proving love and dignity in clothes is an industry priority.

The debut of Louise Trotter at weaves together places, people and stories to create something entirely new. The Intrecciato becomes an extension of the person, through sculptural leather dresses, deconstructed trenches and bags designed to move with the body.

“I want to believe that I’ve succeeded because of my work and because of who I am, and not just because I’m a woman.” Louise Trotter

Runway Diaries: SS26
At Palazzo Citterio, colour becomes language, a dialogue between garments, art, and the city.
The Loro Piana Spring/Summer 2026 collection is a chromatic journey that flows from enveloping earthy neutrals to radiant accents, evoking an escape to the shore. It’s the perfect transition: the last whisper of winter melting into the opulence of high summer.
Cashmere, silk, Merino: Loro Piana’s iconic fibres are allowed to breathe, bringing the nuances to life with an unmistakable texture. Here, heritage merges with quiet innovation, defining the brand’s signature silent luxury.

“Having proved its uniqueness as Masters of Fibres, Loro Piana now expresses its mastery of colours through the richness of vibrant nuances.”

A collection suspended between history and modernity, moving softly yet leaving a lasting resonance.

Key Looks
For women: fluid silhouettes, double-face coats over airy dresses, tactile tweeds, sculptural hats and delicate evening knits.
For men: soft tailoring, effortless blazers and chinos, plein-air inspirations blending city and sea.
