French luxury maison Chanel announced on Thursday its next Métiers d'Art collection will be unveiled in New York on December 2.
In a brief statement, the Parisian house founded by Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel said, 'This choice extends the history that has united Chanel with New York since the 1930s, from Gabrielle Chanel's first trips across the Atlantic to the Paris-New York Métiers d'Art collection show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2018."
Exact show location details were not disclosed.
The runway show will be the first Métiers d'Art collection designed by newly appointed creative director, Matthieu Blazy, who will make his design debut for Chanel on October 6 for the house's ready-to-wear collection as part of Paris Fashion Week.
"I'm delighted that Matthieu Blazy has chosen New York for his first Métiers d'art show," said Bruno Pavlovsky, president of Chanel fashion.
"He will resonate the creative energy of the city he knows so well with the exceptional savoir-faire of the house."
Created by former Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld in 2002, Metiers d'Art is an annual destination show put on by Chanel to highlight the expertise of 12 artisanal workshops now owned by French fashion house, including the embroiderer Lesage and the milliner Maison Michel.
Past show locations include Dakar, Paris, Manchester, and Hangzhou in China, where the fashion house showcased its Metiers d'Art collection last year.
