  • In an exclusive audio documentary, discover the behind the scenes of the ballet "Grace, Jeff Buckley Dances" supported by CHANEL. Blurring the boundaries between film, dance, visual arts and music, this new creation choreographed by Benjamin Millepied celebrates Jeff Buckley, a mythical figure of the late 20th-century rock scene. Accompanied by musicians covering Jeff Buckley’s iconic songs, namely the tracks from "Grace", the artist’s only album, twelve dancers give life to a series of tableaux recounting the artist’s artwork and fate.

    Ever committed to contemporary creation and dance, CHANEL is honoured to be supporting Benjamin Millepied’s tribute to Jeff Buckley.

    The first performances of "Grace, Jeff Buckley Dances" take place at La Seine Musicale in Paris from 5th to 10th November 2024.

    Conversation led by Caroline Broué.

  • For this thirteenth edition of the Rendez-vous littĂ©raires rue Cambon [Literary Rendezvous at Rue Cambon] that was held at the 7L library in Paris, CHANEL and Charlotte Casiraghi, ambassador and spokesperson for the House, invited novelist and essayist Rachel Cusk, along with model and friend of the House Naomi Campbell.

    Moderated by author and critic Erica Wagner, this encounter dedicated to the work of Rachel Cusk considers motherhood, how to explore personal stories through literature and the rework of the literary form it requires: “I think I always felt that my duty was to reality and how the novel could show that and contain it.”
