Chanel
Chanel has been impossible to scroll past lately, and that is no accident. Since Matthieu Blazy took the creative reins as artistic director last year, the French megabrand has reignited customer excitement and returned to solid growth across all product lines, with ready-to-wear accelerating fastest.
The brand's casting tells the same story. Global campaigns have given each category its own cultural moment: Margot Robbie fronting the Chanel 25 bag, the leather goods work extended through Dua Lipa and Jennie, and Jacob Elordi as the face of Bleu de Chanel. A renewed creative point of view, staged as a series of cultural moments, has kept Chanel in the feed without buying its way there.
This is where the opportunity sits for creators. When a house renews its creative direction, it renews the conversation around it, and that conversation needs voices to carry it. Each campaign moment becomes a hook creators can build content around, from styling and trend commentary to cultural analysis. Even price perception has eased, simply because interest returned across categories.
For talent, that restored interest is the open door. The audiences are already watching, and the brands are looking for the people who can hold their attention.
