Penelope Cruz wears fully see-through Chanel skirt like a power suit in Paris
Penelope Cruz was among the celebrated figures who attended Chanel’s runway show on January 27 during the Paris Fashion Week. The Oscar winner opted for Look 24 of the French fashion brand’s Pre-Fall 2026 collection. The monochrome ensemble featured a long-sleeved body-skimming cardigan with a round neckline and silver buttons down the front.
The form-fitting midi-length knit skirt had a swishy hemline. Echoing Chanel’s classic restraint, the transparency of the skirt was far from gratuitous and easily balanced sensuality with sophistication. It was a modern twist to Cruz’s polished red carpet style and a reminder of her long-standing relationship with the brand. Meanwhile, the jewels decorating the cardigan’s neckline and the skirt’s hem added a playful touch to the otherwise minimalist design.
The Spanish star kept the look cohesive with pointed-toe pumps from Chanel’s Spring 2026 collection. She also carried a small black leather bag and covered her eyes with dark cate-ey sunglasses. Besides her elegant outfit, her fresh hairdo stole the spotlight. She kept her makeup simple with black eyeliner and glossy pink lips.
The “Vanilla Sky” actor traded her long locks for a shorter cut that grazed her collarbone. Styled in loose waves, her hair appeared a lighter shade of brown than before, giving the look a fresh, updated feel. Pop singer Gracie Abrams also debuted a new hairdo at the Chanel Haute Couture show, which was the perfect event for stars to reveal their latest style evolutions.
