On Wednesday evening, guests checked in to the Chateau Marmont for a one-of-a-kind staycation hosted by Chanel. The dinner party highlighted the forthcoming Coco Crush campaign, fronted by Gracie Abrams, Mona Tougaard, and Jennie Kim, and shot at the very same West Hollywood landmark.<\/p>\n
Abrams, the house\u2019s newly-appointed Fine Jewelry ambassador, was feeling fine indeed. \u201cI feel like music and fashion are both really reflective of where you\u2019re at, at any given period in your life. That\u2019s why I value what feels most timeless and classic\u2014I feel so good in this outfit and these jewelry pieces tonight. I\u2019ll still want to wear this 40 years from now, despite it being very reflective of me in this moment too.\u201d<\/p>\n
Upon arrival, guests\u2014who included Keri Russell, Dakota Fanning, Maggie Rogers, PinkPantheress, and St. Vincent\u2014were greeted by a vintage car featuring a CH4NEL license plate parked outside. To enter the fete, check-in via the front desk mimicked that of an actual hotel stay. Once they collected their room keys, it was off to explore. In one suite, they could engrave their newly-acquired keys to the Chateau Marmont kingdom, in another, they could have a moment with a numerologist to hear what\u2019s in store for 2026 and beyond. For a pre-dinner buzz, a gigantic tower of Champagne coupes took over an entire corner of another room, while elsewhere, a DJ was holding court in an area that was kitted out with trippy red lights.<\/p>\n
The seated dinner transformed the lobby with long, elegant tables, where friends old and new gathered to enjoy shrimp cocktail, Caesar salad, Branzino, and rib eye steak. As Abrams took her seat next to Gabriette, fellow it girl Devon Lee Carlson popped over to say hello. As for the star of the show? None other than Connor Storrie, the breakthrough talent of TV show Heated Rivalry fame. The Texan actor was veritably mobbed by guests of the bash coming over to say hi and request a selfie.<\/p>\n
As dinner plates were cleared to make way for dessert, Hedda actress Tessa Thompson tapped into the microphone to get the crowd\u2019s attention. \u201cThis room is the perfect opportunity to have a \u2018coco crush\u2019 on someone,\u201d she cooed. \u201cIn fact, I slid into someone\u2019s DMs this year, because I had a crush on her after listening to her record from front to back. And that person is Lily Allen.\u201d<\/p>\n
Feeling the love, the British chart-topper delivered a surprise set\u2014also giving those in attendance a world-premiere of three tracks, as well as Madeline which she recently performed on Saturday Night Live. It wasn\u2019t long before the whole room was singing along to the songs from Allen\u2019s phenomenally successful album West End Girl. \u201cLuckily these aren\u2019t real life experiences\u2026and they definitely didn\u2019t happen in this hotel,\u201d she winked, before introducing the music. Afterwards, she brought the house down with a warranted standing ovation.<\/p>\n
Ten years after it was first introduced, the new Coco Crush collection reimagines house codes with the introduction of a choker, short necklace, two-tone earrings, pav\u00e9 bracelets, and a sculptural cuff, among others. Bringing it to life, the \u2018Hide & Seek\u2019 film campaign featuring Abrams, Kim, and Tougaard is out now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Wednesday evening, guests checked in to the Chateau Marmont for a one-of-a-kind staycation hosted by Chanel.
