Last night, Hangzhou in China played host to the latest Chanel 2024/25 Métiers d’art show. The annual event, which celebrates the many craftspeople who contribute to the house’s luxury creations, was hosted closer to home in Manchester, UK last year.
This year’s location was teased with a film released last week, featuring Tilda Swinton, Leah Dou and Xin Zhileiand (all ambassadors for the house) and directed by Wim Wenders. Swinton travels from the iconic Rue Cambon apartment in Paris to Hangzhou’s West Lake, snapping photos on an analog camera along the way.
