Chanel actual webfont

Stefan Seifert

Hi experts,

a part from being Chanel’s webpage a masterpiece of art and elegant communication in my eyes they newly use a font with minor letters, too, as for example on:
http://womenonly.chanel.com/it_IT#home/3

Can someone tell me if it is a standard font (whichI doubt)
or if it is custom made, most of all:

Who did it?
What is the studio responsible for the webpage maintaining?

Thanks a lot for all informations about this theme!

Stefan

Hey Stefan,

good question, unfortunately they just used ‘ABChanel Couture’ within the css. But I’m sure you already noticed this. Pretty interesting that the fonts are served via Typekit and not self hosted. Maybe asking Typekit if they have any further information?

Regards
Florian
