Chanel Pre-Fall 2006 New York

[Ceptuouse]

i love it, more than ss06

 

[jennifer~]

I love it! And I usually hate Karl Lagerfeld. But the embellishment and the blacks and whites, it's amazing. Brings more attention to the fabrics.

Agreed and thanks, droogist!

Pre-fall 2006?!!

Yes..it's a little early and the collection, though divine, isn't much of a breakthrough from what Karl has been doing lately.

But, heck, at the end of the day, I am loving what I see!

 

[softgrey]

nothing revolutionary...
but it's karl doing karl...which is what he does best...

certainly it's one of his best efforts in some time...
i guess it's true what they say..
**stick to what you know....

*besides...i always like chanel best when it's blk and white...
seems that it's just meant to be that way...
...

thanks for all the pics guys.....

Wow, I love it ... and I'm also totally loving the 20s/30s influence going forward ... I'm going to have to revise my opinion of Karl upward ...

I went to the Chanel store today to inquire about the shoes shown in this collection. I was told that it was the "cocktail" collection with different names each yr (this past cocktail collection is called Paris-Tokyo). IN addition, the cocktail collection is extremely expensive. The shoes from the collections are $3k to $4k as they are exotic skin shoes. The jackets are about $8k and some coats are priced at $80k. oh my

Oh, that's too bad. I think a little virtual tear just ran down my cheek.

Thanks for investigating for us, Caffeine.

what the f is devendra doing there?

i'm glad you see what's truly important

 

[fashionista-ta]

I need the bags

To be quite honest I don't really think this is a great collection.
Well there are loads of pieces that strike me awed.. but..
There are also one or two look that I don't like, too old, I suppose
The styling on this show has made it great.. classy....
But take a look at it piece by piece... there are so many things I that won't even try to fit at the first place..

And... fall... 2006? Is it christmas yet?

Wouldn't that be the very definition of a great collection??

^^ devendra appears to be a good friend of kaiser karl... form what he said in a video that used to be posted at chanel.com they love to play music together (hearing karl play guitar with his leather mittens is said to feel like a fur coat )

 

[markie]

I really want to like this because the styling is good, the presentation is nice, etc... but the clothing just does not cut it for me.

 

[happyguy]
