Chanel to stage Métiers d'Art show in New York
"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.

IN PICTURES: France's scene-stealing Tour de France fans
Tour de France spectators are known for their enthusiasm – which can border on the excessive as they've been known to get too up close and personal with the riders. But it's their funny, over-the-top and often downright eccentric get-ups and banners that sometimes steal the show. Whether it's 'simple' head-to-toe polka dots à la jersey awarded to the King of the Mountains to various furry animals, an out-of-season Santa Claus, the Pope and even, um, genitalia, those watching like to get creative. These are some of our favourites from this year's race. A spectator in costume (presumably Celine Dion from the helpful sign) looks on along the race route.

(Photo by Anne-Christine POUJOULAT / AFP) But sometimes it all goes a bit too far. Like when one brazen prankster actually tried to cross the finish line before the riders, earning himself an eight-month suspended sentence in the process . A French Republican Security Corps officer tackles an individual attempting to cycle across the finish line minutes before the final sprint between Bollene and Valence, southern France, on July 23, 2025.

At Musée d'Orsay, a Courbet painting gets a new life before visitors' eyes
Artisinal precision and unwavering patience: In the main gallery of Paris' Musée d'Orsay, a side arcade has become a sensation. Visitors crowd between the signs "Poitiers" and "Limoges" (western French cities) to witness an unusual spectacle. Behind plexiglass panels, a small team of restorers is hard at work breathing new life into this celebrated painting by Gustave Courbet (1819-1877): Un Enterrement à Ornans (A Burial at Ornans). Since early June, the monumental canvas – 6.68 meters long and 3.15 meters high – has been restored in public view. Every Thursday morning, three groups of 12 people each enjoy a guided visit that brings them up close to the work. Inside the restorers' area, scaffolding, spotlights and renovation tools surround the realistic painting. During half an hour, the professionals explain the history of the work, the nature of their craft and the various stages in the restoration process. This free visit is open to all by reservation. "It's fascinating. I didn't realize how many scientific skills were required for restoration," said Sylvie, a retired sales manager, as she left the visit. "It made me want to come back in the coming months to see how the project is progressing." The visits will pause in August and resume in September.
