Why did the world’s most exclusive luxury brand break its unwritten rules for a 21-year-old Filipina tennis star? Just 72 hours after bleeding for the Philippine flag and winning bronze at the Asian Games in Nagoya, Alex Eala shocked sports fans worldwide by walking into Paris Fashion Week for the Chanel Spring/Summer presentation at the Grand Palais.

When viral photos of her wearing a tailored Chanel tweed jacket hit social media, back home in the Philippines the backlash was instant.
