Get A Look At Bags From Chanel's Metiers D'Art 2025 Show In Hangzhou

Few collections are as anticipated for Chanel lovers as the brand’s December pre-fall presentation. Better known as Metiers d’Art, the collection celebrates Chanel artisans’ incredible skills and craftsmanship.

Since 2002, Metiers d’Art has brought together expert craftspeople, from embroiderers and feather workers to goldsmiths, pleaters, shoemakers, milliners, and more. The collection’s bags feature some of the year’s most ornate details and artful elements. It goes without saying that pieces from Metiers d’Art are coveted year after year by Chanel collectors.

Chanel Heads to Hangzhou

This year, Chanel brought Metiers d’Art to Hangzhou, China, presenting the collection at dusk on the city’s legendary West Lake. Overall, the collection was incredibly dreamy and romantic, offering an air of sophistication that comes with Metiers d’Art’s unique attention to detail.

Ready-to-wear includes floor-sweeping coats in tweed, leather, and silk, matching sets in tweed, knits, and more. Classic Chanel tweed and intricate floral embroideries, feathers, beading, and more are emphasized. A knit set bearing a bird-and-flower motif revisits Gabrielle Chanel’s Coromandel lacquer screens. Coco Chanel was an avid collector of Coromandel screens, and the collection includes many references to her antique Coromandel screens.

As for the bags, Metiers d’Art 2025 includes mostly wearable pieces, more so than in years past. While a couple of ornate minaudières were carried, as a whole bags were very consumer-friendly. Embellished Classic Flaps sat alongside leather bags both new and old. Cargo shoppers in tweed and metallic leather gave way to tiny chain-around minis, pillowy satin chain bags, and more.
