that was very cute

 

[simplylovely]

Lol, adorable clip!

 

[Paws]

Thanks limy for that clip

 

[j'adore_couture]

It's a shame Chanel wasn't at Chanel

 

[pash4fash]

Chanel is really pretty and a great model but I think she's too skinny, it really shows in the VS pictures.

that clip is so funny

is dior the only hc show she did?

edit: oh now i see she was on an exclusive. that's good to hear. i was worried designers had tired of her.

 

[nyc_art_style]

She certainly does, which is why the whole Dior exclusivity thing seems very strange at this point. I'm thinking that it's probably the only show she got booked for.

yes, that's what i was thinking as well. she isn't everywhere like she used to be. Also if Chanel was on a real exclusive, I'm sure Dior wouldn't be happy about her shouting about it on twitter.

what hc has she previously done? I know she did Valentino a lot before Valentino himself stepped down, and she always did Dior. But besides that I'm drawing a blank.... Maybe JPG?

 

[supermodel]

well i've never been a fan of chanel, just don't see her appeal
and honestly, from all the videos of her i've seen, she seems like a pretty big ditzy fame-wh*re....

 

[simplylovely]

^ Define ditzy fame-wh*re? Oh, and there's a thread for model ~fan~ haters.

^^ Carolina Trentini also did Dior only....and if you look at her twitter she was shooting with Mr. Aroch like 2 days after...then she was shooting for VS....so she probably was only able to fit in Dior into her scheduele.

She did Lacriox, JPG, Valentino and Alexis Mabille last season.

It's also the first season where she hasn't booked any campaigns whatsoever but that was to be expected. I predict that we're in for a major shock come fashion week in September...i think we'll be seeing her even less on the runway than last season...especially in NY.

I feel like we have this conversation every season, and every season Chanel delivers. Remember last season everyone was down in the dumps, and then BOOM, Balenciaga? Chanel had a great Resort season, so I don't think there is too much to worry about

**FALLS DOWN 1000000 flights of stairs**

OMG! So true.

 

[Fiercification]

She has a lot of stuff coming up...but I'm surprised none of it has surfaced yet, considering we were hearing about stuff like Lindebergh shoot back in late April...meaning it should've been out by now. Hopefully they didn't cut anything

Doing Balenciaga doesn't negate the fact that she's had her weakest season to date (especially in NY). It just means that she gained a new client and has seemingly lost far more along the way. I'm just predicting that the trend will continue come September. I'm more worried about her lack of campaigns, as far as we know...she doesn't have any. Not really bothered about editorials because that isn't what keeps a model relevant. You can book them all you want but if you're not getting campaigns and covers...you won't get to walk the runways that matter.

 

[simplylovely]

Ugh, this conversation is getting so OLD! People are going to say the same things about Jourdan Dunn when she starts to branch out and do other things besides modelling. You just wait and see.

 

[iluvjeisa]

^seeing as she did no HC show this season, there would be reason for that...I think both their careers are developing quite nicely, though...
