EBN- Hundreds of global fashionistas crammed into a Manchester street as French luxury brand Chanel turned it into a catwalk for a prestigious fashion show on Thursday.
Several models and celebrities attended the event despite the rainy weather, including Karen Elso, Kristen Stewart, Hugh Grant, and Tilda Swinton.
The models and guests were protected from the pouring rain on Manchester Street by a tall glass canopy that was erected over the road for the occasion.
The stars soaked up the street’s combination of history and hipness, posing for photos in the doorway of the long-standing Clark Brothers – a retail supply shop that few people would have previously given a second glance – and outside the Bay Horse Tavern pub.
Also among the 600 attendees were actors Jenna Coleman, Callum Scott Howells, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Lucy Boynton. Other guests ranged from author Jeanette Winterson to Olivia Attwood Dack from Love Island to Taiwanese actress Gwei Lun-mei and Japan’s Sakura Ando.
