Lamine Yamal's Chanel Look Steals the Show at 2026 Ballon d'Or in London
Lamine Yamal arrived at the 2026 Ballon d'Or ceremony in London wearing a black Chanel suit with a pink camellia, which was widely praised as the best look of the night. The outfit drew attention as he was the last to walk the red carpet. The ensemble was inspired by Chanel's Resort 2027 collection, designed by Matthieu Blazy, with the pink camellia added as a tribute to the house's signature flower. This marked a shift from his 2025 Dolce&Gabbana tuxedo, and he is the first footballer to wear Chanel at the event. The 70th edition of the award is held in London for the first time, honoring Stanley Matthews. Yamal, who won La Liga and the World Cup with Spain, is a top contender alongside Harry Kane, and a victory would make him the youngest winner ever.
