Celebrities in Chanel for the 2025 Gotham Awards
Matthieu Blazy stepped into the third gear of his red carpet groove, dressing a six-strong lineup for the 2025 Gotham Film Awards that ranged from tweedy subversion to full-blown plumage. What fascinated me most was how differently each woman (and one very chic man) interpreted Blazy’s Spring 2026 direction.
KStew Does Corporate Grunge
Kristen Stewart arrived wearing a Chanel Spring 2026 Prince of Wales skirt suit in black, brown, blue, and red palette. After months of Rodarte and Thom Browne, I’d half-assumed she’d quietly drifted away from the house, so this felt like a reunion of sorts. The burgundy trunks and Chanel High Jewelry brought in that classic KStew scrape-it-with-a-match energy, but the suit itself felt oddly boxed-in for her. Not in a “take me seriously, I’m directing” way — more like a look battling to keep up with her natural cool.
Petals On Fire
Teyana Taylor never backs down from a silhouette with presence, and this Chanel Spring 2026 flame-red feathered skirt is the kind of look only she can truly command. It’s bold, unruly, and practically vibrating with energy, yet the crisp ivory top adds just enough to stop it from veering into chaos. That balance — wild below, clean above — is exactly what makes the outfit hit so hard. And then we get to the Chanel shoes. My kryptonite weakness. Desert diamonds completed her look.
They aren’t the easiest to ground with a skirt this explosive, but if anyone can make them feel deliberate and cool, it’s Teyana. She treats the whole look like an extension of her own rhythm, and somehow it works.
Finally, Some Flair
At last — something from Riley Keough that feels alive. This drop-waist Chanel Spring 2026 dress with its painterly skirt finally gives her personality room to show through. It’s not muting her presence the way some of her recent ambassador looks have. There’s an ease here that feels far better suited to her natural sensibility.
Airplane Mode
The black-and-ivory Chanel Spring 2026 dress looked intriguing on the runway, suiting Jessie Buckley’s current muted era. I have a feeling it’s going to be a very long awards season. I hope there will be at least one spark along the way. Desert diamonds completed her look.
Chanel’s Newest Crown Jewel
A$AP Rocky, fresh off his Chanel ambassador announcement, delivered an expected dapper menswear look. The suit is clean and considered, and the High Jewelry — including the Golden Braid and Impression Florale ring — brings real personality.
Quiet, Chic Precision
Breakthrough Director nominee Constance Tsang chose a black Chanel Spring 2026 silk jacquard dress: simple, unfussy, and exactly right for her moment.
