Wings, comets and lions: Inside Chanel's new high jewellery collection reveal in Kyoto

"Winging it" took on new meaning for me when I came face to face with Reach For The Stars, Chanel's newest high jewellery collection unveiled at the Meiji Kotokan Hall of the Kyoto National Museum in Japan. Stunning as the sizeable 109-piece collection imagined from three key elements – the comet, the wings and the lion – was, I found myself particularly drawn to the newly introduced wings motif. Largely, it was the novelty of it. After all, it is the first time this wing-shaped motif is making an appearance as a key theme. Before this, Chanel's high jewellery selection used to only revolve around the two other motifs that Gabrielle Chanel held close to her heart. The comet held special significance for the fiercely superstitious fashion icon, who one suspects wished upon the star more often than she would care to admit. And because she was born under the Leo astrological sign, the mademoiselle believed wholeheartedly in the lion's protective instinct towards its wearer. What's enchanting is the allusion to these wings. Patrice Leguereau, the late director of Chanel's jewellery creation studio, took inspiration from an extract by the fashion visionary: 'If you were born without wings, do nothing to prevent them from growing.' THE WINGS And just like that, Chanel "grew" wings. Not just any old wings though but mythical looking ones that look like they leapt right out of a fantastical Greek legend. To my mind, the wing-inspired repertoire is comparable to a beautiful picture book of fabled tales. To inject life into the collection, Leguereau created jewellery pieces 'illuminated by the rays of the sunset and beyond' that perfectly captures 'the magical moment between day and night when high jewellery sparkles on the skin'. The star of the wings repertoire is, no doubt, the Wings of Chanel necklace that features an astonishing 19.55-carat cushion-cut Padparadscha sapphire – one of the most expensive and rarest sapphires in the world. 'Padparadscha means lotus flower in the rising sun,' explained Dorothee Saintville, Chanel's international product marketing director of Watches and Fine Jewellery. 'It is very poetic. The white petals of the lotus flower reflect the rays of the rising sun and the flower becomes iridescent. That is the idea of the golden hour behind the collection.' The exceptional pink-orange hue of the gemstone headlines Leguereau's sunset theme. The flamboyant necklace features a detachable pendant that can also be worn as a bracelet and the matching ring topped by an 8.15-carat D-flawless oval-cut diamond is designed as a set. Both the Pretty Wings Sapphire and the Pink Hour sets come in pink gold and pink sapphires to depict the magical hour of dusk. While the reds that come by way of spessartite garnets in the Sunny Days set and the rubies in the Wild At Heart set are stellar examples of a flaming sky. Of note is the set of five brooches aptly named Five Wings. This one-off set, which took three years to complete, is a collaborative effort between Leguereau and prominent Kyoto-based lacquer artisan Yoshio Okada. While this is not the first time the house has tapped Okada's expertise – they have previously worked together on the Artistic Feather jewellery set and a precious coromandel box – this is by far the most impressive showcase. 'Urushi or Japanese lacquer is the most refined lacquer,' Saintville said. Prized no less than precious gemstones, urushi has been exemplary of Japanese refinement for centuries. Okada's Midas gestures are akin to snapshots of wings in mid-flight. THE COMET Drawing attention to the comets on one of the brooches, Saintville highlighted: 'The comet is like a thread between the three [motifs]. The comet is always present. Even if the wing is present as a major element, you still have the comet. The same for the lion.' Since Madame Chanel designed Bijoux de Diamants, her one and only high jewellery collection from 1932 and based on a single theme of the comet, the star-shaped symbol has remained the crown jewel inspiring every single collection that followed since. Reimagined in a 'lengthened' format for the collection, the newly interpretated comet has somehow managed to become 'even more radiant' thanks to an American red-carpet sensibility that influenced Leguereau's vision for this high jewellery collection. It has to be said that this sensibility is a reaction to Madame Chanel's stint in Hollywood. In the 1930s, she was invited to design movie star Gloria Swanson's costumes for the movie Tonight Or Never. There, she acquired a taste for diamond cascades, impressive cocktail rings and striking necklaces. Reminiscent of Chanel's OG comet from 1932, the new Dreams Come True necklace is a dress code all its own. It is designed to look like the plunging neckline of a couture dress crafted in white gold, black-coated gold and a cascade of diamonds as Chanel herself would have described it. And of course, the showstopper is the sparkling 6.06-carat diamond that sits atop the comet that cinches the beguiling necklace. THE LION Also, same but different is the lion motif. 'Patrice used to interpret [the lion] with sculptural lines that is very powerful but this time, it's very airy, celestial and it also has wings. This is a new interpretation,' shared Saintville. The lion motif was first found on the buttons of Madame Chanel's tweed jacket – she believed that they would watch over her. The lion has since gone on to inspire everything from perfumes, fine jewellery and even high jewellery. The Embrace Your Destiny necklace is characterised by two fiercely protective, wing-tip lions that are said to act as guardians to its wearing. Each lion bears the weight of a 5.6-carat pear-shaped diamond. The mademoiselle would have felt absolutely safe under their watch. Intrigued by the storybook fantasy the motifs offer and the possibilities they bring? The collection encourages one and all to look up to the skies and reach for the stars. "The collection is an open invitation to dream, to shine," Saintville teased.

Style News: Chanel jewellery designer's final collection, Havaianas x Gigi Hadid, Decorte pop-up

Late Chanel jewellery designer takes final bow Celestial motifs are at the centre of French maison Chanel's latest haute joaillerie line Reach For The Stars – the last by its former chief of fine and high jewellery, Patrice Leguereau, who died of illness in November 2024. The swansong of his 15-year tenure is a mix of old and new. Familiar notes, like the long tail of a comet and abstractions of the lion he so favoured – for founder Coco Chanel was a Leo – get much play, but the soft curves of wings make their debut too. Celestial motifs shine in Chanel's haute joaillerie line Reach For The Stars – the last by its former chief of fine and high jewellery, Patrice Leguereau, who died in November 2024. PHOTO: CHANEL White gold and natural polished diamonds recur in the range that includes necklaces, belts, earrings and a tiara. But sapphire proves most effective, appearing in pink, blue and even a subtle yellow, while the soft reds of spessartine garnets and some black spinel add interest. It is quite a romantic line, with some sets approaching Sailor Moon levels of girlishness – granted, they are much more opulent. The piece de resistance is the Wings Of Chanel necklace shaped like a pair of unfurled wings that fit around the neck. It is set with a 19.55-carat padparadscha sapphire of a rare pink, and drops into a string of little moons and stars that can be detached and worn as a bracelet.

PHOTO: HAVAIANAS Supermodel Gigi Hadid's new capsule collection for Brazilian flip-flop brand Havaianas will go live on June 30. Comprising four styles, the drop is the casual footwear brand's buzziest in recent memory, following an appearance by Hadid in late May – feet shod in a butter yellow, square-toe pair of Havaianas. US fashion media was quick to seize on the oddity of her bared ankles and toes – really, the whole paw – on the grotty streets of New York, forecasting a 'flip-flop renaissance'. It is a notion perhaps most amusing in Singapore, where the rubber slipper is ubiquitous. Hadid's set comes in classic Havaianas shapes and candy tones – soft-orange, yellow, purple, and blue and green – with retro, pin-up-inspired prints. Each pair bears her signature on the sole and is packaged in a beach-inspired box, with hanger and postcard. Info: Available from June 30 exclusively at Prices to be announced Decorte's Takashimaya pop-up Decorte's AQ Pore Blackhead Dissolver and AQ Perfumed Hair Mist. PHOTOS: DECORTE From June 19 to 25, Japanese beauty brand Decorte, known for its focus on regenerative skincare, will set up shop at Takashimaya's The Atrium. The week-long pop-up gathers Decorte AQ's skin, hair, body and fragrance products in one place and features two new products. The first, the AQ Pore Blackhead Dissolver ($120), is a cleansing serum meant to smooth pores and dissolve excess oil on the face. It is touted as gentle, going for the lipids in sebum plugs and dissolving them right down to the roots, removing the 'grease' and proteins that clog pores. The second, the AQ Perfumed Hair Mist ($80), gives the locks a sweet Magnolia champaca fragrance.

It is part of a new range named 1908 – the year Converse was founded – in which forgotten archival Converse styles are reimagined by rap's one-time enfant terrible. Two 1970s silhouettes are coming back this time : the Coach Jogger, designed as an Olympic running shoe in 1976, and the Naut-1, a boat shoe circa 1971. The Coach Jogger reboot keeps the narrow look and thin sole of the original, but trades its retro branding for the loopy script of the American rapper's shoe line, le Fleur*. The 1908 Naut-1 styles are going funky too. One design comes in a print of the 34-year-old musician's favourite dog and canine mascot of his apparel line, the Airedale Terrier.
