Exploring the Future of Culture: CHANEL Connects Returns for Season 3

Fashion enthusiasts are constantly on the lookout for the latest trendy outfits. Some go to great lengths, patiently waiting months to get their hands on a rare Birkin bag. Others seek out hidden gems in vintage boutiques, valuing their uniqueness and showing loyalty to “good taste.” And then there are those who can’t resist attending every fashion show in town. We all have our own ways of expressing our inner fashionista. But what unites us is the desire to stand out, to make a statement that aligns with our beliefs.

Fashion is not just about appearances. If you find yourself in Paris, you have a world of opportunities to express yourself. However, the standards of elegance, taste, and success in this city are unlike anywhere else. Without nurturing your inner fashionista, your outward choices become superficial, lacking substance.

To truly embrace the world of fashion, it’s essential to cultivate your taste and knowledge. Fashion is intertwined with art, curiosity, and personal growth. That’s why we love exploring the latest trends, as they can be incredibly fulfilling.

Reconnecting the Arts

It started a few weeks after the announcement of Charlotte Casiraghi’s appointment as the head of CHANEL’s literary club, the house initiates a series of “intimate conversations about the future of culture.” What lies ahead for cinema, theater, dance, music, architecture, visual arts, and fashion? With “CHANEL Connects,” the iconic fashion house invites individuals from diverse disciplines to share their perspectives and “imagine new frontiers for the art world as galleries, museums, and stages reopen in a radically transformed world.”

And now CHANEL Connects is back for its much-anticipated third season. Featuring influential thought leaders, artists, and creators from around the world, this series of eight episodes, released weekly, delves into the profound questions and conversations that shape our culture today and define its future.

Each 25-minute episode of CHANEL Connects brings together two visionaries for an intimate conversation that explores various themes, including the intersection of technology and imagination, the blurred lines between fact and fiction in autobiography, the transformative power of collectives, the art of cinematic inspiration, and more.

This season’s lineup boasts an impressive roster of guests, including the talented actor and producer Penélope Cruz, renowned architect Frida Escobedo, visionary entrepreneur Jon Gray, innovative designer Yinka Ilori, acclaimed composer Kelsey Lu, and digital artist Sarah Meyohas, among others. Through unscripted exchanges between these brilliant minds on the cutting edge of innovation, CHANEL Connects sheds light on universal topics that resonate with all of us.
