Chanel has been banking on red for some time now, both in skincare (the N°1 red camellia line) and in make-up! This summer, the brand perseveres, launching a limited edition of Les 4 Ombres Byzance. Did you say baroque?
From her travels to Venice, Gabrielle Chanel returned with a revelation and a new passion for Byzantine art that would profoundly influence the aesthetics of her creations.
From haute couture to extravagant jewelry layered and worn like fetishes, she turned it into a rich and daring source of inspiration.
This season, Chanel’s iconic Les 4 Ombres palette is reinvented in sumptuous eye adornments, in a totally baroque spirit inspired by the jewelry preserved in the house’s heritage.
The allure is powerful, sophisticated. Singularity perfectly mastered, audacity invited.
The raw brilliance of hammered gold, the gem-like sparkle of precious stones, the saturation of pigments: the 4 Ombres Byzance jewels exert fascination and attraction.
A baroque attitude deeply rooted in the codes defined by Gabrielle Chanel and revisited by Chanel’s Make-up Creation Studio in magnetic looks. The flamboyant energy of red transforms eyes into embers! It triumphs in Les 4 Ombres Byzance Palette Parure Impériale (€65, available August 1, 2023), where red quartz accompanies the crimson glow of garnet, yellow sapphire and a subtle rose gold with silvery reflections.
