Chanel fall/winter 2010 review







With glitz and glamour Karl Lagerfeld designed some of the most beautiful outfits ever! From the very first piece of clothing to the last, everything had some umph. 
Lots of the outfits had multi-colored bubble like dots. It reminded me of snow flakes. Not sure why!  What really made me look was hat all of he oufits had long trains behind the skirts. It made everything look a bit different/abstract. The hair on the models was brilliant. It reminded me of repunzel. The hats were ok, I thought thy looked silly. They didn't really go with the outfit, except that they were made of what looked the the same material as the clothing.The hats went over heir faces which was interesting. It made the collection have a little omething more to it. 
The shoes varied in height and shape. One model might be wearing an 1800 typed pair of heels, and one might be wearing a glamorous modern pair of golden heels. I thought it was cool that the collection didn't have just one pair of shoes that varied in color. The makeup made the outfits stand out a bit more. Mostly heavy eyeliner and eyeshadow. Really bought out the outfits true colors! The models walked in and out of a catwalk surrounded by giant chanel No.5 perfume bottles. What a classic idea! At the end of the show, two models, a man and a women walked out of the perfume bottle. A wedding was the main idea of that part. The dress that she was wearing was one of my favorite outfits of the collection! The dress was about knee length and was a creamy white color with a white train trailing behind it. The man had a plain suit. (What else is a man supposed to wear in an all girls fashion show?) 
Over all, the fashion show was beautiful! The music that was my favrite in the show was La Roux:In for the Kill. You should listen to this song, because it is great for the catwalk and is a great song. You can look at my video bar to watch the fashion show or go to chanel.com.

  2. LOVED THE SHOW. I HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH YOU ABOUT THE HATS, THOUGH. THEY WERE INSPIRED BY FLAPPER GIRLS' HATS WITH A SLIGHTLY MODERN AND SPACE AGE ACCENT. THEY REALLY WENT WITH THE OUTFITS WELL. I THOUGHT THAT THE CHOICE OF SONG WAS GREAT, ALSO. WONDERFUL SHOW, AS ALWAYS! KARL LAGERFELD REALLY HAS SOME GREAT TALENT. THE FACT THAT HE IS ABLE TO KEEP CHANEL NEW AND MODERN, WHILE STILL KEEPING THE LEGEND AND SPIRIT AND THE FOUNDATION FOR THE HOUSE OF CHANEL, GOING; IS REALLY GREAT.

  3. Hey Miss Vintage!!! The collection was AMAZING!!! I totally agree with you, everything looks great and well put together. Though there was many types of fashions (i.e. soft creamy colors mixed with bold, bright ones)there was obviously an underlying theme: vintage meets modern. I loved how there were some outfits with a contemporary, classic looks (the last pic of the vintage hourglass suit) with a bright, bold, noticable modern accesory (the leapord tie.) I thought that was genius!! And I ABSOLUTLY LUUUV the wedding dress!!! Nowadays when a big, poufy gown comes to mind when somebody mentions the word "wedding dress" it's hard to break out of that mold. But this dress is short, fresh, fun, maybe even a little flirty, while it still maintains a slight vintage feel with the ruffles. And nobody could forget the little vintage accents on every outfit, like the lacy leggings and appliques.Lagerfeld combined modern dress shapes with vintage designs, and vice versa. All in all, I totally agree with you- it's exactly what a great collection should be- classic looks and modern looks clashing to create one sleek, fun theme. Thnx for the update Miss Vintage!! I <3 ur site!!!
