Today in Paris, designer Matthieu Blazy debuted his fall 2026 ready-to-wear collection for Chanel, filled with exciting new takes on the French label’s signature tweeds and skirt suits. Better yet, the show saw the palatial Grand Palais setting transformed into a chic construction zone, outfitted with giant colorful cranes. (The show was to celebrate “works in progress,” hence the thematic set.) When it’s a Chanel show, after all, the space is always theatrical and larger-than-life—just like when Blazy transformed an abandoned New York City subway station into his pre-fall venue.
Blazy’s front row for the presentation today, meanwhile, was its very own spectacle to behold. Stars such as Margot Robbie (who unveiled a new bob!), Jennie, Teyana Taylor, Oprah, Kylie Minogue, Gemini, Olivia Dean, and more all showed up in support of the grand event—decked out in their finest Chanel attire, of course.

While models like Paloma Elsesser leaned into the classic uptown Chanel skirt suit, other attendees went more unexpected routes—like Robbie in her sheer tank and gauzy trouser from the spring 2026 couture collection, or Lily Rose-Depp in her full-on animal print Metiers d’art ensemble. Jennie even wore a fully-transparent netted skirt suit: The perfect mix of Old Chanel meets New Chanel.
Given the starry guest list, then, Vogue simply had to document more of the front-row action, so we enlisted photographer German Larkin to document these notable names in their VIP seats. Below, scroll on as Larkin caught all of the candid moments between stars. (Come for the Teyana-Margot embrace, stay for the Oprah-Kylie meet-cute.) Plus, we asked them to weigh in on the inspiration behind their outfits, as well as their favorite looks from the show—and what their favorite French words are.

Margot Robbie
What inspired your show look today?
“I'm just wearing a casual tank, jeans, and jacket—it's no big deal, it's just a couture version! The jacket is made of this really light, beautiful chiffon. It's from Mathieu's last collection, his first couture collection.”
What did you think of the show?
“I loved the belted drop-waist skirts with the big blazers. Anything with the iridescent fabric was so fun. The bags were insane—there were, like, a thousand bags that I would want. The shoes and sassy little glasses were great. The music is always great at his shows, too. Gaga came on, and all the girlies started bobbing. Everyone was like, ‘Okay, we’re ready to party.'”
