Mega-Watt Beauty Stephanie Cavalli Wears Chanel for Global Elle July 2026 AOC Fashion

While Dior was waging the biggest PR campaign ever in my memory, promoting Jonathan Anderson and photobombing him into countless fashion stories as “the Sun King is coming to save women from ourselves, when the topic is dressing appropriate for our lifestyle”, Matthieu Blazy was toiling away out of the spotlight.

The votes are coming in with greater authority every day. Chanel is the big winner in this competition. Whether or not it’s a win built to last will reveal itself going forwards. But Chanel has taken the crown.

Not only has Blazy created stunning fashion choices for women with financial capital; he has put Stephanie Cavalli, age 50, into the spotlight. What is there not to love with this vibrant model who recalls:

“I never know how to put this without sounding crass, but I was too old to be young and too young to be old,”

In this global June 2026 ELLE fashion story, Cavalli wears key pieces from last December’s first Métiers d’Art collection by Matthieu Blazy. [The New York subway show].
