i agree that KARL is OBESESSED with HEDI (lets not even go there)

but i love KARL for who he is: the bitchy designer who isnt afraid to say whats on his mind and still manages to rule with CHANEL.

just my opinion

 

[Lena]

i find him occasionally entertaining.. as far as he doesnt make a fool out of himself and keeps his mouth closed regarding mlle Chanel

 

[softgrey]

i think he lost all that weight because he's so full of himself he can't eat...

 

[dl20]

from those pics it looks like they should stick to designing for women only

isn't being bitchy and pretentious a requirement to enter the industry?

I don't design for chanel, I havn't shared in it's history, I don't even work for them. I say let karl do what he likes, as long as his stuff comes out good (which I think it does) then yay for him. In my opinion he is more of a queen than galliano but whatev.

I love this collection!! Karl Lagerfeld is god in my books.

it was.. much more at the time karl entered business,
the new trend is less pretentiousness, more substance

exactly...only the dinosaurs are still like that...nowadays if you try that, everyone just ignores you...look at marc jacobs...everyone's hero...he's the most low - key, chill person...you've never seen him quoted talking sh** about another designer...it's small and petty...and very boooring....

the new crew is much more'normal'...whatever that means...

unfortunately, you are correct. I was really dying to get one of those blue with black and white tweed trim short jackets.

Even John respects Mnsr. Dior as a person (though not his house).

Actually, I'd have to disagree with that.
I think that John does respect the house of Dior, actually.

Look where it all started in 1947. The Dior look was very controversial, over the top, and ahead of its time. I don't think that Christian would disapprove of what John's doing. It wouldn't be Dior to just stick with the same old stuffy boring clothing and look for old rich ladies... and Dior was all about reinventing the norm and daring to be different, in my opinion.

Wow! I love the blue coat and the printed grey coat. I wonder why style.com didn't include these pictures on their site.

Style.com is chickswear!
