Chanel Couture

Karl Lagerfeld...

NO.

You simply cannot combine the elements of a classic Chanel suit with the futuristic tendencies of Lady Gaga.  Shimmer leggings?  Silver peep-toe platforms?  Funky bun-hair with oversized bow?  Raw silk suit?  Does not compute.  Does not compute.  Hardrive overload.

If my computer could react, this is what it would look like:
This is not couture.  This is trying to combine classic with trendy and failing.

You disappoint me, sir.  I'll go cry in a corner now.

End rant.

A Fashion Icon - Karl Lagerfeld


Arrogant and iconic as ever, Karl Lagerfeld showcased a fashion show in Moscow for the first time.  Women's Wear Daily interviewed him about the event, quoting him about his first visit...or lack there of:  "Moscow is a city I knew quite well without coming here because I'm an informed person - there are so many books, novels, photos, that in a way I know it... I have a feeling I know exactly what is in every museum."  My thoughts?  *Sigh...If only we all were as cultured as Lagerfeld.  (Can you read the sarcasm?).  But look at this photograph of him.  You've gotta hand it to him, the man is more iconic than Andy Warhol.
