Riley Keough, who’s attending the Cannes Film Festival to advertise her new movie Butterfly Jam, attended the Histoires Parallèles premiere this night.
When Matthieu Blazy took over at Chanel, I did assume Riley could be one of many largest beneficiaries of that transfer, principally as a result of I hoped it’d spark a return to the bolder pink carpet vitality she as soon as had throughout her Gucci period.
As a substitute, this Chanel Spring 2026 Haute Couture taupe sheer jacket, prime, and skirt embroidered with charms, pearls, drops, and hen motifs continues the identical understated course she has been favouring for a while now. At this level, it feels protected to say that this quieter magnificence is a real desire moderately than one thing dictated by model alignment.
Do I believe it is a unhealthy look? No. Actually, there’s something fairly refreshing about how restrained it’s inside the context of Cannes, particularly when this was not her personal premiere and he or she had no must compete for consideration. The delicate transparency, delicate embellishment, and muted palette all work in concord along with her naturally low-key presence.
That stated, I nonetheless discover myself wanting extra from this partnership with Blazy’s Chanel. His work has texture, eccentricity, and emotional richness, and I’d like to see Riley lean additional into the sharper, stranger, or extra directional aspect of his imaginative and prescient moderately than staying so firmly inside this protected aesthetic house.
Chanel’s signature two-tone pumps and Chanel Excessive Jewellery accomplished her look.
