Since his splashy debut at Paris Fashion Week in October 2025, the French-Belgian designer has enthusiastically revamped traditional brand codes, adding that special artistically ornate touch that\u2019s been his signature throughout his nearly 20-year career. First it was his cosmic take on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/fashion\/chanel-spring-summer-2026-review\">Spring\/Summer 2026<\/a>, laden with the now-viral feather ball skirts and reimagined tweed sets. Then, there was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/fashion\/chanel-metiers-dart-2026-show-review\">M\u00e9tiers d\u2019Art show<\/a>, famously set in an abandoned NYC subway platform, which seamlessly merged high-fashion with metropolitan grit (think embellished midi skirts paired with half-zip pullovers). Fast forward to his first Cruise show for the brand and the always unpredictable creative is seemingly leaning into the always appealing mermaid aesthetic. <\/p>\n<p>Yes, for Chanel\u2019s Cruise 2026\/2027 collection, Blazy\u2019s fantasy world extended to aquatic realms. The setting of the scene began \u2014 as most things do \u2014 with subtle nods. Models donning branded swim caps, star fish- and reef-embroidered jackets, and shell-shaped earrings marched down the beach-inspired runway in Biarritz, France. Many went barefoot, holding their cap-toed Chanel pumps in their hands as one does during a spontaneous sandy stroll by the ocean after a long day of luxurious schmoozing on the Basque coast. <\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"DbX\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"B1N\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"qmt pm7\">\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model walks the runway during the Chanel Cruise 2026\/27 \" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/4\/28\/59a7acdf\/biarritz-france-april-28.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Marc Piasecki\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model walks the runway during the Chanel Cruise 2026\/27 \" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/4\/28\/c9ca2e85\/biarritz-france-april-28.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Marc Piasecki\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-464203034\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"olh\">1\/2<\/div>\n<div class=\"xCo\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button><button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The seaside storytelling continued to materialize, with accessorize proving to be a main protagonist in the narrative. The aforementioned swim caps evolved into fish-like silhouettes, with knitted headpieces topped with fin detailing. The classic raffia beach tote took on epic proportions, with Blazy\u2019s version set in exaggerated sizing and vibrant striped patterns. <\/p>\n<p>Jewelry resembled treasures found at the bottom of the ocean, featuring gilded shell and seahorse emblems and beaded forms that mimic that of colorful algae or a multi-legged sea creatures. Even sunglasses were shaped and molded to look like swim goggles and thigh-high rubber boots were inspired by practical fisherman\u2019s gear. <\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"DbX\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"B1N\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"qmt pm7\">\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model, hat detail, walks the runway during the Chanel Cruise 2026\/27\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/4\/28\/4518de61\/biarritz-france-april-28.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Aurore Marechal\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A model, bag detail, walks the runway during the Chanel Cruise 2026\/27 \" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/getty\/2026\/4\/28\/813d1bdb\/biarritz-france-april-28.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\">Aurore Marechal\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-464226320\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"olh\">1\/2<\/div>\n<div class=\"xCo\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button><button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Like any epic novel, the last leg of the Cruise show offered the perfect crescendoed finale via ornately beaded gowns with mermaid silhouettes and bright orange and aquamarine beading that was set to resemble shimmering fish scales.
