In London, Chanel marked the centenary of its presence in the United Kingdom in true Gabrielle Chanel spirit. The celebration took place at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, featuring an intimate dinner for 100 guests and a ballet performance set against a backdrop designed by Pablo Picasso.

The event highlighted the historic connection between Chanel and British culture and the arts. The ballet was staged with Picasso’s original set design, evoking the creative collaboration between the artist and Chanel in the 1920s. The evening’s atmosphere blended fashion, art, and theatricality – the very essence of the Chanel spirit.
