New heights: Irina Shayk took part in the Chanel show for the first time

______________________________

Today is the finale of the Paris Fashion Week, and, of course, the organizers have left the best for last. On Tuesday afternoon, there was a grand show of the French fashion house Chanel, whose creative director is now Virginie Viart.

The face of the show was the longtime muse of the brand and the favorite of the late Karl Lagerfeld – Kristen Stewart. The actress starred in a teaser (video and photo) for the show, her face was on the invitations, and before the start of the fashion show, an excerpt from the short film was shown on the big screen. She herself did not step on the podium, preferring a place in the front row. But Irina Shayk came out to him – and for the Russian model this was the first participation in the fashion show of the world famous brand.

The designer entrusted Irina to present a romantic dress with a combined print of a zebra pattern and pink flowers, open shoulders, ruffled sleeves and a black patent leather belt with a silver buckle. On her feet were patent leather shoes and black mesh stockings. The image was complemented by a sleek hairstyle, large gold hoop earrings and a gold choker.

Recall that Irina Shayk became the face of the brand almost a year and a half ago, but then no one expected long-term cooperation. On March 20, 2021, an advertising campaign with a Russian top model was published. Irina posed for the lens of famous photographer brothers Luca and Alessandro Morelli.

For the photo shoot, she even temporarily changed her image and “tried on” a short pixie haircut, while in some photos the model was not wearing clothes at all – the focus was on jewelry (wide bracelets with monograms and earrings). And the decoration was a huge Chanel logo.
