Chanel presented its new resort 2012 collection at the Hotel du Cap, in Antibes on the French Riviera yesterday(May 9th, 2011), a lovely, luxurious setting for the brand to present its new lineup of vacation-ready clothes. The collection featured long sheer silk skirts, loose shorts, two-tone bathing suits, muted prints, and shooting star details, in a palette of floral hues like pale yellows, lilacs, pinks, blues, as well as plenty of white and black pairings. And the clothes weren’t the only attention-getters: Blake Lively, Rachel Bilson, and Alexa Chung flew in to watch the fashion show, all dressed in beautiful Chanel outfits, of course.

"This is about the women of Cannes, women who mix bathing suits with real pearls and diamonds," Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld told the AP after the show. "After all, you can't wear fakes into the water."
