Five Winners Invited to the Collection Show


The "2016/17 Métiers d’Art Collection Paris Cosmopolite," unveiled in December 2016 at the Ritz Paris, a hotel located at Place Vendôme in Paris, France, will be presented in Tokyo on Wednesday, May 31, 2017, with a special set created at the Tsunamachi Mitsui Club.

In conjunction with this event, a special website for the show has been launched. Here, visitors can enjoy all sorts of content, including the collection's looks, various behind-the-scenes photos, and a movie of the collection show held in Paris in December.

For many years, CHANEL has contributed to the protection and development of unparalleled craftsmanship, including Lesage and Montex for embroidery, Lemarié for feathers and camellias, Massaro for shoes, Maison Michel for hats, and Lognon for pleats.

This expertise, underpinned by history, is known in French as "savoir-faire" and is passed down through generations to young, emerging talent within the ateliers of the French fashion industry.

Now, the "Savoir-Faire Program" has been launched to invite submissions expressing "savoir-faire" via social media. This program encourages participants to post their own "savoir-faire" with a hashtag, using any genre of expression, such as photos, videos, sketches, songs, or poems.

The "Best Savoir-Faire" will be selected from the submitted works, and the five chosen individuals will be invited to the Métiers d’Art Collection Show to be held on Wednesday, May 31.

Why not take this opportunity to fully express your creativity and participate in this special program?
