Keough says she was drawn to the occasion not solely out of her loyalty to Chanel, but in addition due to the runway present’s setting this fall: For the first time since 2021, Chanel returned to the Grand Palais, which had been beforehand closed for renovations. “It was the first time back, and it just felt like such a beautiful place,” Keough says.
In phrases of make-up, Keough says the home let her “do my own version” of what the fashions sported on the runway. She chosen a daring winged eyeliner and bronzed blush to pair along with her shimmering black jumpsuit and matching cape.
“I think the older I get, the more I appreciate it, actually,” Keough says of the artistry and manufacturing that goes into runway collections.
As the granddaughter of Elvis Presley and daughter of Lisa Marie Presley, Keough comes from a protracted line of music and vogue royalty. She says she’s been attending vogue weeks for “maybe like 20 years” now, and “I just fall in love with it more and more each year.”
For the efficiency, Chanel outfitted Keough in a black buttoned jumpsuit, “which fit me really perfectly already,” and paired it with a sheer cape that’d catch the breeze as the singer swayed over the friends.
Although Keough’s present came about on a swing reasonably than a trapeze, “so it was a little bit different” from Paradis’ commercial, she however needed to maintain the references clear—so she and Chanel chosen an all-black look to imitate Paradis’ personal.
She says that there have been “a couple versions” of the cape itself, which was adjusted all through rehearsals to “figure out what would be a good length on the swing.”
Before her look as singer Daisy Jones in the Prime Video sequence Daisy Jones and the Six final yr, Keough didn't think about herself a singer in any skilled capability. Even now, she sees singing as a “fun” exercise reasonably than a critical profession prospect. She took the identical strategy to the Chanel efficiency: “It was something that was meant to be joyful and fun. I felt inspired by this sort of, like, French nonchalance.”
“I’m not, like, an incredibly good trained singer,” Keough continues, “but I think that if I get the opportunity [to sing], I’ll take it. It’s not a career thing at this stage of my life.”
One memorable full-circle scene from the present? As Keough sang above the crowd, she regarded down and locked eyes with Paradis sitting in the viewers. “I looked down and saw Vanessa, and it was such a special moment because she was kind of the only person who I made real eye contact with,” Keough says.
Asked if it was at all horrifying to hold above the group of fashions, Keough replied, “Once I was up there, it was okay. Clipping myself on, I got a little nervous because I wanted to do it in time. Other than that, it was honestly just very fun.”
“I think that doing creative work is cathartic for artists,” Keough says. “It’s cathartic to make; it’s cathartic to watch it. Hopefully, anyway!”
Keough’s relationship with Chanel has endured for a decade, strengthened, the actress says, by the home’s dedication to “music and cinema.” She provides, “They support artists in so many ways, which is very inspiring to me.”
