Leena Nair, la nouvelle directrice générale de Chanel, mène une révolution chez Chanel. Le vieil adage « on ne quitte pas Chanel, on meurt chez Chanel » ne correspond plus à la réalité. La dirigeante d’origine indienne, qui n’avait aucune expérience dans le luxe avant de rejoindre la puissante maison il y a deux ans, a provoqué un tsunami en poussant vers la sortie plus d’une douzaine de cadres aux commandes depuis des décennies, selon des sources du secteur proches de la maison française. D’autres vont suivre, ont déclaré des sources du secteur et des personnes proches de Chanel. Même le directeur financier, Philippe Blondiaux, a informé la maison qu’il souhaitait partir en 2026. Chanel s’est refusée à tout commentaire sur ce point et n'a pas voulu le démentir officiellement.
