Very excited for this...can't wait to see it all put together, accessories look strong

expect to see LL and lily allen at the show

 

[youarearockstar]

Well my Chanel experience would just be incomplete without an appearce from LL.

I love the bags in post 2. Twead for summer? I just don't see anyone truly wearing that. Maybe I'm wrong

 

[Crakk]

^That's what I thought, but then I saw that both Dior and Feretti were listed as "07.08". I just wanted it change for the sake of making searching easier.

Excuse my ignorance, Cruise in other words means Pre-Spring/Summer, kind of a "warm up" before the huge show?

^ Cruise bridges FW 07 08 and SS 08. Resort bridges SS 08 and FW 08 09

looks promising

FINALLY!! i can't wait! i ve had an awful week and this is really the only thing that could brighten up a little my weekend! (love hurts i guess...)

I am loving the croc bag and the orange pumps.

it's actually not croc as some people mentioned... karl calls it "croco coco" because it's "matelassée" (like the 2.55) that looks like croc (GENIUS of course, it's karl), or so he said after last winter show (you still can watch it in the interview posted on chanel.com)

and about wearing tweed for the summer... chanel normally uses a different kind of tweed for summer-cruise collections. it's really soft, légère....dreamy.... i saw a tweed jacket from last cruise collection and it was amaaaaizing!! beautifully done!

 

[Diorling]

Yea, thier summer tweeds are embroidered onto chiffon to make it lighter...

Also, Im pretty sure that white bag is croc and not the quilted croc from FW 07. I dont think they would quilt a bag then use a diamond and white gold turnlock, it must be croc.

 

[Dkammern]

^^ maybe you are right... i only said croco because that's what i read on what they've posted on vogue.fr

 

[iximisspiggyixi]

Does anyone know what time the show stars at? I'm so excited for this.

 

[ParadEyes]

love the bags

I thought cruise & resort were synonyms And that the other is called "pre-Fall" ...

PS Cruise/resort was originally for people's winter vacations. This is why there's still often a nautical theme, and sometimes caftans. Colors are often very bright.

I like the mirrored metallic bags ... reminiscent of LV

 

[liberty33r1b]

Claudia Schiffer for Chanel again!! never expected this to happen again....she looks really great here.

 

[jakeee]

i know for sure that daul kim is in the show.

That's how I've understood it as well.

As I wrote in the Dior Cruise thread, while I'm thrilled that there are more collections, I'm having a difficult time keeping it all straight!

 

[MimiMcqueen]

WOW.WOW.WOW. I love anything Chanel.

yeah. I wonder how much the croco bag will run to??

 

[brian]

^ the lock on the croc bag is white gold with diamonds... i don't even want to imagine the price...maybe 70k?
