All clothing and accessories by Chanel Cruise 2024/25.

When models cantered down the Chanel Cruise 2024/25 runway in Marseille last May, they did so with the gravitas befitting the house's well-heeled clientele and storied legacy.

Photographer Isabelle Wenzel refashions the collection into something more—turning the lens on herself and juxtaposing the clothes' delicate silhouettes with her tumbling postures and signature contortions. The intermingling control and whimsy comes naturally to the German acrobat, who has exhibited her self-timed photographs across the world.

For CULTURED's Artists on Artists issue, Wenzel turns Chanel upside down.
