CHANEL knows the power of a whisper. Ahead of its Fall-Winter 2025/26 Ready-to-Wear show, the house released a single, striking image shot by David Sims, featuring model Mathilda Gvarliani. A portrait in restraint, the black-and-white teaser is all about tension—between tradition and reinvention, softness and structure, quiet and statement.
Captured in profile, Gvarliani’s short, tousled hair nods to an undone elegance, while a sleek satin ribbon ties neatly at the nape of her neck, anchored by a pearl-embellished CHANEL clasp. It’s minimal yet intentional, hinting at the codes of the house without giving too much away.
The full collection will be revealed on Tuesday, March 11th, at 8:00 a.m. EST on CHANEL.com. Until then, this image lingers—just enough to pique curiosity, never quite enough to satisfy it.
