CHANEL · Backstage Beauty Spring/Summer 2023 Ready-to-Wear Show

 

 

You guys, it’s not even Christmas, yet the spring 2023 beauty trends are already rolling out and first out of the gate is CHANEL with the Spring/Summer 2023 Ready-to-Wear Show. Inspired by the 1961 movie L’Année Dernière à Marienbad by Alain Resnais, Virginie Viard sent looks down the runway that were the very expression of freedom of movement. I can honestly say that this was the first runway show where every.single.exquisite look 100% took my breath away. But we’re here for the beauty, am I right?

CHANEL · Backstage Beauty Cruise 2022/23 Collection

 

CHANEL’s recent Cruise 2022/23 Collection was held at the scenic Beach Hotel in Monaco, with the venue being a place the late Karl Lagerfeld long creamed of, especially since his beautiful villa was just steps away. Inspired by the elegant yet sporty atmosphere both seen & felt in this principality, the beauty look created for the show was effortless, breezy, and sunshine-filled. In other words, 100% French-girl chic … and a look that I intend to totally appropriate all summer long.

CHANEL Backstage Beauty · Fall-Winter 2022/23 Ready To Wear

 

Turning a Scottish classic into a luxury icon, CHANEL’s recent Fall-Winter 2022/23 Ready-to-Wear Collection paid tribute to all things tweed — even the venue was swathed in the fabric. Gorgeous accessories and runway pieces aside, the beauty look was minimal yet so fresh, with cheeks looking flushed with colour as though kissed by a walk through the moors. Groomed brows, a ‘just-bitten’ look to lips, and neutral nails, the eyes were loaded up with mascara (but not overly clumpy) to complete the look, and I’m living for the effortlessly cool effect. Pretty sure this will be my go-to from now on.
