The Chanel Cruise 2025-26 show will come to life in a dream setting: the legendary Villa d’Este hotel, overlooking the shores of Lake Como . The Maison, always synonymous with elegance and innovation, has entrusted the refined sensibility of Sofia Coppola with the direction of this unique event, creating a true film that celebrates luxury, femininity and the art of escape.

An iconic location for a timeless event

Villa d’Este , a jewel of the Renaissance and today one of the most exclusive hotels in the world, has been transformed into a cinematic set for the Chanel Cruise 2025/26 collection . The history of the French Maison is intimately linked to Lake Como , a place of inspiration for Coco Chanel herself, who spent moments of reflection and creativity there in the 1920s. In this setting suspended in time, between white marble staircases, ochre-colored terraces and rooms overlooking the sparkling waters of the lake, the new collection from the Chanel Creative Studio will find its perfect stage.

Coco Chanel’s Dream Comes to Life on the Shores of Lake Como

The choice of Villa d’Este is not accidental: Coco Chanel deeply loved Lake Como, a place that embodied her free spirit and her constant search for authentic beauty. In this CHANEL Cruise 2025/26 show , the past and the present intertwine harmoniously, celebrating the visionary legacy of Mademoiselle Chanel through a collection that speaks of freedom, lightness and casual luxury.

The CHANEL Cruise 2025/26 collection show took place on April 30, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. and will offer fashion lovers a journey to the heart of contemporary elegance.
