Chanel taking to a street in Manchester, the post-industrial metropolis 160 miles from London in northern Britain, caused all sorts of a kerfuffle to held their Chanel Métiers d'Art Collection.
Why? Virginie Viard revealed her own personal backstory for
choosing to support the proudly edgy multi-layered working-class culture of the
English town, and it included everything from its prowess in football to the
Madchester music and clubbing scene (as it was famed in the ’80s and ’90s) to
its historical status as the original powerhouse of textile mill manufacturing
in the 19th century.
“I like small towns,” she declared. “Not like London—it’s
too much like Paris. My grandfather and grand-uncle managed the football team
in Lyons. My grandfather and grandmother also worked in making fabrics there.”
