"One of the designs on which I spent more than 30 hours was a jacket for the Chanel Métiers d’Art 2021 collection, which was presented at 19M. I really liked working on this model, the initial material was very fragile, which required all the more precision and delicacy," says embroiderer Victoria Fuchs.
