To begin, Lupita Nyong’o, a global brand ambassador for Chanel, attended the London photocall for “The Odyssey” at IET London: Savoy Place on Sunday, July 5, 2026, donning an ivory column dress inspired by look 73, originally modeled by Lina Zhang in the Chanel Cruise 2026/27 collection designed by Matthieu Blazy.

The dress featured a sleeveless top decorated with black grosgrain trim, which traced the V-neckline and armholes; a camellia brooch along the bust; and a wrap-style midi skirt that was complemented by an extended black grosgrain sash that was cinched at the waist and tied at the side.

The skirt continued the same black grosgrain detailing, featured the matching black CC camellia brooch, and was finished with a high side slit that emphasized her long, toned legs.

To finish the black-and-white aesthetic, Lupita Nyong’o styled the look with TASAKI jewelry and two-tone white Chanel slingback pumps, featuring a black cap-toe that merged flawlessly with the dress.
