the desirables
A Charvet shirt with jeans—it's the timeless formula that quietly underpins the
wardrobes of countless chic New Yorkers. Now, thanks to Matthieu Blazy's first
collection for Chanel, the look has new energy. Strutting down the Spring/Summer
2026 runway, models sported white Charvet shirts with the signature Chanel
weighted chains at the hem, blending masculine structure with feminine flourish
and evoking Gabrielle Chanel's own fondness for borrowing from the wardrobe
of her lover and muse, Arthur Capel. Wing-collared, bib-fronted, and oversized,
the new Chanel shirt is the perfect piece for spring.
When two icons of French style collide, the results are
game-changing. Glenda Bailey is coveting Chanel's
collaboration with historic Parisian shirtmaker Charvet.
