The House of CHANEL has collaborated on one of the summer’s most-anticipated film, Barbie,
produced by and starring Oscar nominee Margot Robbie, a House ambassador, as the global icon.
Directed and writen by Oscar nominee Greta Gerwig, the film reveals that to live in Barbie Land is to
be a perfect being in a perfect place… unless you have a full-on existential crisis. Or you’re a Ken.

Throughout the history of cinema, CHANEL has been a preferred collaborator. In our latest partnership, the House proudly worked alongside Barbie creatives to realize several costumes for Margot Robbie’s character as well as a ski suit for Ken’s character, embodied by Ryan Gosling.

Five silhouetes imagined by Virginie Viard will be seen on screen, along with quilted bags, including a
heart-shaped one, and accessories (shield-eyewear from the COCO NEIGE collection, holographic cuffs and costume jewelry, hats from Maison Michel) made available by the House. Oscar-winning costume designer and friend of the House, Jacqueline Durran, was given a selection of outfits in various shades of pink from the Ready-to-Wear, COCO BEACH and COCO NEIGE collections imagined by Virginie Viard. The five featured silhouetes – three suits, a ski suit, and a dress – were chosen to highlight the Barbie character as she moves through her journey in the film.
