CoCo avant Chanel

(The above image is from the A/W collection, showcased at the 2008 Paris Fashion Week)

OMG! Thats the first thought that came into my head when I first saw this amazing image.
Ive loved Chanel since I first smelt my mums Chanel No.5 Perfume at the age of 8, the rich classic smell is one that I will always love.
A Chanel carousel fitted out with giant quilted bags, camellias, pearls, boaters, and bows faced the audience as it poured into the Grand Palais for the Fall ready-to-wear show. It was a fitting metaphor for the timeless turning of the house classics, and for the unstoppable machine fashion has become these days. The instinct, on arrival, was probably to prepare to hold on tight. How many blur-speed notions would Karl Lagerfeld manage to whip past the audience.
