Last night, an abandoned New York City subway station was transformed into a @chanelofficial runway. The occasion? @matthieu_blazy’s debut Métiers d’art collection. For @matthieu_blazy, the subway is an equalizer, a common means of transportation that welcomes all walks of life. The show notes describe the setting as “a microcosm of New York and a metaphor for fashion itself.”
