Ah, to bask in the outdoors once more! Exuberant and carefree, the Chanel Spring/Summer ’22 collection pays homage to the youthful energy of the sunny season. Creative director Virginie Viard has some fun by injecting light and joy into the collection, represented in candy-coloured tweeds, stylish swimwear, flowy butterfly prints and new, refreshed takes on ‘80s silhouettes (less stiff, more relaxed). The nod to the '80s also welcomes the return of biker shorts and fishnet skirts into the collection.

One major highlight for the Maison this season is the debut of a new accessory darling: the Chanel 22 bag. Aptly named after the year of its debut, the oversized yet sophisticated bag is quintessentially Chanel: the supple yet resistant quilted leather, the metal chain interlaced with leather, the “CHANEL Paris” medallion with an openwork double C, the effortless chic…complemented by an inside zipped pocket and a removable pouch held in place by a snap hook, and then closes with a magnetic button and purse-like drawstrings. A true marriage of simplicity and comfort, Chanel 22 lets you carry all your summer essentials in the chicest way possible. Practicality has never looked this cool.

As for versatility, the Chanel 22 bag comes in three sizes plus a backpack version, and is available this summer in navy blue, purple, two shades of pink, white and of course, black.
