Hailey Bieber Gives Chainmail a Fresh Spin in a Bejeweled Chanel Jacket and Jeans

Hailey Bieber paired a metallic Chanel jacket with light-wash jeans and black pointed-toe pumps at the WYouth launch party in Los Angeles on 15 October 2026. The outfit combined an embellished designer piece with casual denim, giving the jacket a different look from its original runway styling.

Bieber wore the cropped jacket without a top underneath, fastening a single button at the front. Its silver mesh was decorated with red and turquoise details, jewelled trim and textured knit accents. The design combined a shirt-like cut with metallic detailing, making it the main feature of her outfit.

The jacket comes from Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel Autumn/Winter 2026 collection. On the runway, it was styled with an elongated tweed vest, a plaid pencil skirt and peach-and-burgundy pumps. Bieber opted for light-wash, low-rise, straight-leg jeans instead, creating a more casual combination. Black pointed-toe pumps completed the look.

The metallic mesh also offered a chainmail-inspired alternative to the tweed and boucle jackets traditionally associated with Chanel. Its reflective surface and knitted trim gave the piece a distinct appearance, while the pockets and cropped shape retained the familiar structure of a jacket.

Bieber was not the only celebrity to wear the design. Margot Robbie reportedly paired the same jacket with jeans after the 2026 Met Gala, adding a white vest top, gold Manolo Blahnik sandals and a ruby-red Chanel clutch. Olivia Wilde also wore the jacket at Chanel’s Spring/Summer 2027 show during Paris Fashion Week, styling it with a matching pencil skirt and a white vest top. These appearances showed how the piece could be styled for different occasions, from casual dressing to a coordinated runway-inspired look.

Bieber attended the WYouth launch party as the magazine’s inaugural cover star. She co-hosted the event alongside W editor-in-chief Sara Moonves and WYouth editor Ava Nirui.

The look fits Bieber’s preference for combining casual staples with designer pieces. By pairing the metallic Chanel jacket with jeans, she gave a runway design a less formal setting without introducing additional statement pieces.
