French luxury house Chanel will present its Cruise 2021/22 collection in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, with a show that will take place on Tuesday, November 2nd, 2021, at an undisclosed location. The collection was first unveiled in May this year at the Carrières de Lumières limestone quarries in the village of Les Baux-de-Provence, in the south of France.

This will be Chanel’s second show in Dubai, seven years after the presentation of the Cruise 2014/15 collection in May 2014, with Karl Lagerfeld’s imagined Arabia on The Island. This exciting and luxe event will surely be eagerly awaited by the region’s major fashion magazines and fashion girls, especially that it will be an in-person event, with the return of physical shows after many months of lockdowns.

Let’s go back in time for some fashion history info: the Cruise collection is firmly anchored in the history of the House of Chanel. As early as the end of the 1910s, Gabrielle Chanel was offering her clients light and comfortable designs for various sunny destinations. Since 2000, this Ready-to-Wear collection has become a highly anticipated annual event, and the French fashion house has showcased the Cruise collections in dreamy destinations such as Saint-Tropez, Singapore, Venice, and even Havana in 2016.

Chanel was the first House to institute a real show for its Cruise collection, which continues to be an invitation to travel the world.
