Collection Review: Chanel Fall Ready-to-Wear 2014/15
Chanel has always had a reputation for being classic, elegant, vintage, and especially iconic. For the fall season, Karl Lagerfeld is putting a modern twist to the classic silhouette of Chanel. The color palette was fun. I especially loved the manipulations with tweed, and the coats are absolutely stunning. A constant theme in fashion for 2014 was humor. Did anyone else notice the egg crate clutch? LOVED IT! For those of you read up on the history of Chanel, you know that Coco herself would probably be rolling in her grave if she saw this collection. I think she would find it vulgar. She was always very ladylike and traditional; she didn’t even like dresses showing knees.Thank goodness Karl Lagarfeld embraces change and welcomes the new, because the Fall/Winter collection for Chanel is a slam dunk! Individually, I think the pieces are very “wearable”. This collection gives the wearer lots of versatility in styling. It does have an 80’s essence to it, which makes ME nostalgic. Winter is my most dreaded season, but this collection makes me look forward to it. I love the Chanel grocery store theme too, and although I don’t think CoCo would approve the designs…I sure do! Great work Karl You’ve done it again!
