Isha Ambani stuns in vintage Chanel
On May 17, fashion stylist Jamie Mizrahi took to Instagram to share a series of glamorous pictures of Isha striking elegant poses in a rare Chanel Haute Couture look from Karl Lagerfeld’s Autumn/Winter 1996 collection. The iconic Gold ‘Lesage’ Quilted ensemble, complete with the signature Gripoix belt, was sourced from luxury vintage curator Tab Vintage.
Created during Lagerfeld’s transformative era at Chanel, the outfit carried all the hallmarks of his design language, sharp tailoring, lavish embellishments and dramatic femininity. The late designer famously reinvented Chanel in the 1980s and 1990s by blending the house’s timeless elegance with bold, theatrical glamour.
Interestingly, the same archival ensemble was previously worn by Lady Gaga back in 2011, making Isha’s fashion moment even more iconic.
What elevated the outfit further was the exceptional craftsmanship woven into every detail. The intricate embroidery paid homage to Maison Lesage, the iconic French embroidery atelier renowned for its couture artistry and decades-long collaboration with Chanel. With its ornate quilting, jewel-toned accents and tapestry-like finish, the ensemble felt less like a modern outfit and more like a treasured couture artefact revived for today’s fashion landscape.
How she styled her look
Rather than overwhelming the statement look with excessive styling, Isha accessorised with a black Chanel suede mini pouch from the Cruise 2025/26 collection, creating a subtle contrast against the rich gold tones. With oval Saint Laurent sunglasses and Manolo Blahnik Callasli slingback heels, she perfectly styled her look.
For the glam, she kept things subtle with soft nude eyeshadow, sharp winged eyeliner, mascara-coated lashes, well-defined brows, blushed cheeks, a luminous touch of highlighter and a nude lipstick that perfectly complemented the golden ensemble.
