  • An End of an Era and a New Beginning

    Written by pari

    One last time we got to see the creation Mr. Lagerfeld, along with Virginie Viard, transformed Chanel’s home away from home, this time into a winter wonderland reminiscent of a small village in the French Alps.

    Large tweed fedora hats, seductive silhouettes with a masculine sway, Houndstooth, tartan and big check motifs, . A mind blowing postuum show from the fashion maestro. Winter white, beige, black, and navy blue were met with bursts of purple, fuchsia, brick and emerald green, elegant nonchalance. Ski outfits juxtaposed with urban wear, embroidered snowflakes in white and gold vinyl on chiffon and feather ‘snow-ball’ dresses. And the bags; a faux fur and quilted leather fanny packs and the 2.55… swoon!

    Blowing our minds as always with a Montreuil set designer showing us drop dead dedication. 

House ambassador Penelope Cruz walked down the runway along side some of Karl’s high end muses like Kaia, Cara, Vittoria and Luna.


    
The fashion industry has lost a true force, however with Lagerfeld’s perfectionist approach and eyes in the future, we assume he made detailed plans to keep his mark in the house and we won’t be disappointed in the seasons to come.

    The gold-coloured stainless steel plate is bent around the edges of the doors and common to both kitchen and sideboard is the choice of a black granite benchtop to balance the overall impression.

That’s why this collaboration feels so right; together with Picky Living, we’re putting a luxurious golden finish on the furniture that many Swedes already have in their homes”, says Johan Svensson at Svenska Spel.
