This year’s homecoming echoes the very first show, held in the salons at 31 Rue Cambon — Chanel’s storied Paris atelier. “There is something so generous about how Chanel has supported the Parisian fashion industry as a whole,” Cotillard said following the show. “Chanel is a sort of ambassador for France and Paris over the world and it makes me so proud,” she added.
