To the beach, dear friends, where Karl Lagerfeld has shot the new campaign for the Chanel Cruise 2017 collection, which was shown in Cuba earlier this year. Fronting the campaign this season are i-D cover stars Mica Arganaraz and Stella Tennant. Bathed in a warm sunlight — and framed by the glorious expanse of the ocean, or the brightly colored bricks of a small southern town — these two beauties appear without a care in the world. Dressed in an assortments of masculine-cut jackets, ties, and panama hats, Stella’s boyish charms perfectly balance Mica’s overt sensuality, emphasized here by her more feminine attire: a yellow dress, a sequin beret (a whimsical nod to Che Guevara), floral motifs, and pearls. In other words, the campaign explores the many facets of femininity, set against the vibrant spirit of Havana.
