“Like Mother, Like Daughter: A Chanel Couture Moment Defines Paris Fashion Week

In a dazzling display of generational glamour, the hallowed halls of the Grand Palais transformed into a tableau of timeless elegance as Lily-Rose Depp and Vanessa Paradis graced Chanel’s Spring 2025 haute couture show. The mother-daughter duo, both longtime ambassadors of the storied maison, commanded attention with their distinctive interpretations of Chanel’s iconic codes.

Depp, fresh from her haunting turn in the gothic reimagining of “Nosferatu,” channeled contemporary sophistication in a masterfully crafted bouclé ensemble from Chanel’s Fall 2024 couture collection. The black and white set, a symphony of textures, featured a precisely tailored jacket adorned with crystalline embellishments along its graceful scoop neckline. The accompanying skirt, cut with architectural precision to fall just below the knee, showcased the house’s legendary craftsmanship through its subtle flare and shimmering crystal details.

The rising star’s footwear choice proved equally compelling – silver satin peep-toe pumps that married classic elegance with modern whimsy. The shoes, also from the Fall 2024 couture collection, featured delicate ankle straps and innovative pearl-adorned heels finished with gold tips, standing at a perfectly balanced three inches.

Meanwhile, Paradis embodied effortless French allure in a statement piece from Chanel’s Spring-Summer 2025 ready-to-wear collection. Her feather-embroidered jacket, a tour de force of artisanal expertise, played with texture and movement in a way that felt both bold and sophisticated. The piece was masterfully styled with a shimmer-kissed silver sequined top and sleek black denim, creating an ensemble that bridged haute couture with contemporary ease.

The front row read like a who’s who of cultural luminaries, with Marion Cotillard, Pamela Anderson, Kylie Jenner, Dianna Agron, and Dua Lipa completing the stellar lineup. Jenner, in particular, offered her own interpretation of Chanel’s codes in a cropped bouclé jacket paired with a flirtatious pleated mini skirt, accessorized with patent leather slingbacks that spoke to the house’s enduring appeal to a new generation.

For Depp, the show marked another chapter in her deep-rooted connection to Chanel. Hand-picked by Karl Lagerfeld as a brand ambassador at just 16, her journey with the house began at the legendary casino-themed haute couture show in 2015, where she shared the spotlight with fellow muses Kristen Stewart and Julianne Moore. Since then, she has become an embodiment of Chanel’s evolution, starring in numerous campaigns that bridge the house’s heritage with contemporary allure.

As the fashion world witnesses a changing of the guard, with Matthieu Blazy stepping into the role of artistic director following Virginie Viard’s departure in June 2024, this mother-daughter moment at the Spring 2025 couture show serves as a powerful reminder of Chanel’s ability to transcend generations while maintaining its essential DNA.”
