I was totally set on snark when I started looking at this, but damn it, there are so many tiny covetable details to each one.Oh, Kaiser Lagerfeld, you crazy genius.
Lapels. Maryjanes.
This- its scary marvelous.
Gets your noses to the monitor- check out those seams- its like a couture sun!
Shoulder seam placement- ah-aaah!
Jacket! Jacket!!!
Mild concern that these are lace culottes- chafing level 10 people, but look at that jacket with it!!!
Oh- sailor collar- I must see that dress under there!!
Anna Wintour- please tell me that the Vogue Cafeteria staff are wearing this, I want that to be true.
Ok, Karl- drink another diet coke, you are getting light headed.
There are 96 looks in this collection- please go see it all!
I’m on the fence-
Must…touch….this……..
I hope she doesn’t keep her pearls in the fridge.
I keep thinking ‘this will; be the last one’ but then this happened:
Then this.
Aw gees- Karl, stop- I get it, you win!

Ew no. Too grannyish for my tastes- adds too much bulk as well imo. I’m not a fan of the good old classic Chanel jacket personally [and I know many love them]. I’m already square and boxy, a boxy jacket would turn me into a hypercube!

I’m over the square Chanel jacket too- I’d be a well upholstered pear- but these are making me giddy!

About that sailor collar dress and jacket… Looking closely at the front of the dress, I’m thinking it’s probably a good thing she’s wearing the jacket.

When I saw “Chanel” as your choice this WW, I thought, “She wouldn’t DARE snark about Chanel.” I’m drooling over the fabrics and combinations of colours. I have always admired Lagerfeld and the house of Chanel, and only remember one or two collections that I disliked. If only I could own a piece… Sigh…

Oh My! Yes. damn, I wanted to snark too, but so much love – those sleeves, those collars! even the over use of pink was just right – damn!
and that neutral coat, and the jackets… ok.. I’m going now… but the weird scary clown eye makeup and princess leia meets minnie mouse head buns, they were wrong.

Yay for lower heels, too. It always seems like the accessories and makeup are the most bizarre parts of a show. I love that blue dress. I want to say I’ve had something similar before.

If you do get a hair hat, at least match it to your hair color please! The clothes are scrumptious- I guess we really shouldn’t complain, especially since there will be bat shit crazy aplenty elsewhere…

NOTHING better than a CHANEL show 🙂 So much fabulousness and true design, style, craftsmanship…Ahhhh…the fashion world is restored. Love the fabrics (well, most of the fabrics – at least you can appreciate the pairings), interesting details and shoes, too. I liked the last CHANEL runway better (OMG…those incredible embellished pieces!!), but this is very interesting. Must look up the Carolina Herrera runway now – another designer whose runways I always love.
