Paris Haute Couture Week: Chanel Spring 2010
| By: Mariana L. | ||



Classic Chanel. This season, the legendary Karl Lagerfeld actually seemed to move away from the signature details that this house is known for. Little black dress? Nope. Gold chains and braid? Didn’t see them. This confectionery colored collection had variations of the iconic Chanel suit of course, but with unexpected silver lame, liquid silver and silver leather details instead. Look upon look came down the runway like the frosted tops of cupcakes, right to the poufy retro-style bouffants. Dresses were lighter than air silk, draped or jeweled. While I found most of the show absolutely beautiful, I had to admit, some silhouettes were not very flattering to many bodies.
Favorite look? I loved the cape of handmade silk roses (about 35 o00, give or take a few!)
The bags? Hmm, for this particular presentation, the models didn’t carry any. At this level of luxury, why be distracted by anything else?
Front Row: Alexa Chung, Kanye West, Amber Rose, Claudia Schiffer
