The Chanel Supermarket

Today, the Chanel show took place at Paris Fashion Week. I truly believe that Karl Lagerfeld has out done himself and anybody else for that matter. Known for his crazy locations and creative concepts on the runway I really didn't know what to expect today but I definitely wasn't expecting this.

A Chanel supermarket? Where did this idea even come from? With isles full of 'Chanel' food products and stands full of every different type of 'Chanel' cheese they have literally thought of it all right down to the colourful shopping trolleys pushed by the models. When I first saw the set I wasn't sure if I loved it but when I saw the immense detailing that has gone into it I couldn't really disagree that Chanel is on top form. The runway full of super bright, primary colours gave off a kitsch feeling and as the models walked down (or shall I say shopped around) I couldn't help feel it looked like a toy world.

 

Cara Delevingne of course made an appearance along side Kendall Jenner who seems to have now made a name for herself as a runway model which I find intriguing but she does seem to be doing the job pretty well I have to say. The collection itself has in a way, been over shadowed by the props and the set as I seem to be able to talk more about that than the actual clothes. Never the less I enjoy the oversized coats, sporty trainers and a vibrant colour pallet for a sleek, smart winter look for us to indulge in.

I wonder what will come next as I find each show completely unpredictable,that is what is so great about Chanel, one of the most iconic and long running fashion houses can still surprise us. I think that means Karl is doing his job! All I can say is... where can I get my Chanel Spaghetti?

Yours Fashionably
