The brand's Resort 2020 collection is the first to carry the stamp of Karl Lagerfeld's successor.Author:Tyler McCallPublish date:May 3, 2019Updated onMay 3, 2019 his death more keenly felt than at Chanel, where he had been creative director for over three decades — reviving the brand from the brink of failure to turn it into one of the biggest, most famous fashion houses in the world.
Viard's first real test in her new position came on Friday morning with Chanel's Resort 2020 collection, the first that she would carry without the aid of her mentor. One key difference in design philosophy seems to be present here: Where Lagerfeld gunned for a "more-is-more" aesthetic, piling on accessories and details, Viard appears to be abiding by Coco Chanel's own adage, dictating that one should look in the mirror and remove one thing before leaving the house.
