Because K. Lagz never half-asses.



I always hold pretty high expectations for all of Chanel's shows, and Tuesday's did not disappoint, scenery-wise. They room was set to about 28 degrees farenheit, and models walked around a giant iceberg. The floor was actually covered in an inch or so of water. The iceberg was actually a combination of ice and snow ("snice"), and was sent to Paris all the way from Sweden just for the show. It weighed 265 tons and was 28 feet high. It was also carved by 25 sculptors from seperate parts of the world in six days.

And we still wonder where all the ice went...?

As for the clothes, very typical Chanel. Lots of black and white, tweed, fur (faux) etc. I was nervous to see that lots of the beginning looks featured pants made out of all fur. I didn't not know where Karl was going with those, but I'm sure it was a superior inter-galactic fashion concept that I will never understand. The rest of the show was alright, I suppose. I do know that those boots will be everywhere come next season. It was very trendy and sophisticated, as always. Karl kept true to Chanel's roots, but still updated the look and made it edgy (again). I do believe that Karl Lagerfeld is a genius and superhero, but I would like to see him think outside of the box just a little bit more than usual. But don't think that I don't still worship him anymore.
