Karolina Kurkova Wears CHANEL | Tailoring, 14S Silk & 20A Tweed | UK

Karolina Kurkova holds the line of a CHANEL jacket with ease. From Lagerfeld’s campaigns to 14S rainbow silk and 20A pink tweed, her editorials study tailoring in motion.

Karolina Kurkova and the line of a CHANEL jacket

The Czech model began at 15 and became known through Vogue and Victoria’s Secret. In CHANEL, her posture clarifies structured jackets while bold dresses stay light.

The white CHANEL suit and modern tailoring

For The Little Black Jacket exhibition in 2012, Kurkova wore a white jacket with matching trousers. The monochrome styling makes the cut itself the focus.

A raspberry cardigan with a woven bag brings texture and colour together. Elsewhere, a retro portrait shows how readily Kurkova can move from clean tailoring to a more cinematic dress.

CHANEL 14S: painterly colour, silk dresses and tweed

Gan’s Harper’s BAZAAR Singapore story appeared in February 2014, followed by Koray Birand’s Vogue México shoot that April. Paint-like colour and reconstructed tweed make this one of the most visually restless CHANEL seasons in the article.

CHANEL 20A: pink tweed in Miami light

Camilo Rios photographed the ELLE Czech October 2020 editorial in Miami. Against the monochrome looks, the pink tweed jacket makes the collection’s density feel bright and contemporary.

Away from CHANEL: Karolina Kurkova’s beauty videos

Her Harper’s BAZAAR food diary and Vogue Beauty Secrets routine are more informal than the editorials. They show the same quick confidence in a conversational setting.
