The Chanel Hype is Real – Blazy’s Collections Are Paying Off

The Blazy effect is officially more than just a fashion-world frenzy. Chanel’s new creative direction is translating into serious buzz — and impressive sales — with the Maison reportedly seeing a 16% rise in revenue in the first half of 2026. From sold-out debut collections to handbags that are suddenly very hard to get your hands on, Blazy’s Chanel is clearly having a moment.

What’s Better Than Blazy’s Chanel Maxi Flap Bags? The New Mini Versions

Maxi was having a moment, but Chanel’s latest twist is to make it mini. Matthieu Blazy’s much-talked-about Maxi Flaps have been downsized for 26B, bringing both the minimalist grained calfskin and quilted suede versions into the beloved Mini format — and they’re already giving collectors another reason to obsess.

Chanel’s 26B Bucket Bag Is Packed With Subtle House Codes

Not every Chanel newcomer needs to shout. The 26B Bucket Bag takes a quieter approach, weaving in familiar House signatures through flat quilting, two-tone detailing, a burgundy-lined interior, and a pared-back take on the iconic chain strap. It’s another intriguing glimpse at how Matthieu Blazy is reworking Chanel codes for a new era.
