Discussion: Who Should Be The Creative Director of Chanel?

[LenaLena]

Chanel is tired and tiring they need to be safe/radical
Its useless to think of the brand in terms "of a new Karl", it's over
and the 'old school' is over as well

Lutz Huelle or Joseph Font are perfect choices for them
Stefano Pilati could be great, even Hedi is OK

still I'd love to see a brave girl at Chanel
eg Julie Pelipas of BETTER.US or Chitose Abe

Chitose Abe

I love her but she can't command a couture business.
I pre-ordered some of her creations lately and the execution was poor. how does a piece of deconstructed garment fall on the body (does it balance? does it slant front/back or left/right?)? One has to be thoughtful about it. She is not there yet. (And her business is now more commercial so I'm not sure if she will ever be that meticulous?)
