a lot of this seems like stuff we've seen before, i don't know?

the rest of it is just kind of ho-hum. nothing amazing here.

the oversized b/w striped cardigan is kinda nice... other than that.. this is really not what i've expected from Lagerfeld...

It is not very Chanel-esque

a little bit of 1980s i think.
i appreciate very much the innovative way chanel use the grand palais as a venue (in contrast to dior)!

imo the spring 06 collection is also not very chanel-esque. maybe karl just comes up with a new style for chanel? i'm not complaining.

My only problem is that the setup seemed just like spring; I wish they would have made it more dark and fall-like. I for one am liking what I see so far. I like the younger, piecier side of Chanel, and the flowing fabrics. It feels like a much more natural and flowing Chanel. I wish he would include a few more traditional pieces, but of course I'll have to see the whole collection to make a judgement.

It's ok. Not what I was expecting. How come he produces an all black collection for Gallery, for Fendi he uses extreme amounts of restraint (no tiedye) but for Chanel he goes over the top? I like some of it, but I was expecting something excellent, along the lines of his loovely Fendi collection.

well you are entitled to have an opinion ..

but in my opinion i thought ss06 was a mess.. only the evening wear was great..

 

[pradaromance]

i love it so far. cant wait to see the rest!!

 

[Djavanjmiles]

I like how it looks wild and untamed. The dress that sasha and natasha are are really pretty.

 

[darkintragedy]

I like it. Different is good.

 

[Bidwell]

How long was that runway! The cattle carrall was very funny. I can imagine some real tension being stuck there and not in front row.
Pointless just like the clothing.

 

[arlekindearrabal]

i like it because it looks costume-y

 

[rarahls]

lovely collection ,but not that gorgeous

 

[em 692]

honestly, i think this stuff is crap...

 

[shoe_addict]

didn't impress me

 

[melt977]

Especially after Balenciaga and now McQueen, I'm sorry to say that Lagerfeld's attempt seems a tiny bit pathetic to me...

 

[Guessgirl96]

I like some of it, but not really super impressed

 

[Avant Garde]

i agree with whoever said it was hit and miss.

also, when did santino rice start working for chanel?
from earlier in the thread
