A Chanel-clad Vanessa Paradis Takes to the November 2023 Cover of Harper’s Bazaar France

From the get-go (the relaunch back in March), Harper’s Bazaar France has endorsed and championed homegrown talent. From French models like Loli Bahia and Laetitia Casta to French actors like Catherine Deneuve, French singer Vanessa Paradis is now the title’s cover girl. As per the request of Olivier Lalanne, Paradis makes an appearance on the November 2023 issue via the lens of Alastair McLellan. In the charming cover image, the celebrated songstress and muse of the late Karl Lagerfeld appears joyous, flashing her iconic gap-toothed smile and sporting a look from Chanel’s Cruise 2024 collection. The glitzy chevron number is teamed by stylist Elodie David Touboul with a pair of Chanel roller skates (which have been immediately added to our holiday wish-list).

This month, however, French Bazaar‘s latest had members of theFashionSpot forums a divided bunch. “I don’t like the cover. The black and white doesn’t appeal to me,” voiced ezacessline.

“What in the world!” shrieked matheus_s upon checking out the cover.

“I feel like a good stylist/photographer/model would have made us believe she was about to put on those Chanel roller skates and terrorize the streets of Paris. What we have here is so sad, ‘look… I’m holding these dumb Chanel roller skates’,” commented blueorchid.

“The Chanel skates are offensive, because you know they cost more than mortgage payment,” forum member mepps chimed in.

Nevertheless, not everyone was left so unimpressed. “I love Vanessa Paradis, she’s very iconic in France. Happy to see her still being on covers after so many years,” admired Bertrando3.

“It’s fun, I love the black and white photography from McLellan here teamed with that shade of pink. Of course, Vanessa Paradis wearing Chanel is always a good idea – will always and forever approve of that partnership!” championed vogue28.
