Chanel

I'm losing faith in the fashion industry, namely Chanel. Lagerfeld decided to stage the show around/through a giant iceberg. Next they'll be saying that the jungle is in and have women running around in loincloths with Tarzan. Fashion works on oppositions, non? DERELICTE!

FROM STYLE.COM:
"Freja Beha Erichsen and three bears on an ice floe. This was the arctic scene at Chanel, where giant chunks of bona fide iceberg, specially transported from Scandinavia, formed the frozen landscape around which models solemnly splashed through a sea of 'berg-melt in shaggy snow boots with ice-block heels."
...
"Nevertheless, putting global warming and the melting of ice caps both center stage and on the back burner (as it were), this show swept the audience along as they were treated to such amusements as seeing Karl Lagerfeld's favorite, Baptiste Giabiconi, swagger out of an ice cave in a full-length polar bear coat."

I actually like this leather motorcycle jacket. The rest is heinous, though.

This cut, the fur starting above/at the elbow, seems popular this season. I hate this, though.

EW ARM!! EAT FOOD!! Unfortunate buttons on the front, ugly trim on the skirt. Gross in general.

Speechless.

Ughhhhh

Pants/turtleneck are pretty sweet, but the coat is absurd. I could see someone wearing it to an event, though...? Cruella DeVille or glam? Pimp, maybe?

Ok, now this guy just looks sad that he's wearing this Muppet costume.

Now, this I don't mind too much. I would like to see what the shirt with the bows looks like underneath.

I'd wear this angora sweaterdress. Love that icy blue color. The ring looks pretty, too.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this.

Sasha is just like, yep, I know, this show is absurd, but I'll do anything for Karl, since he basically got me my career by making me the face of Chanel cosmetics last year and now having me walk in all of his shows always because I'm so striking. Wish I could take these boots off now...

I actually love everything about this final look except for the boots.
