Chanel Spring 2013


WHERE do I begin with this collection?! There are so many HIDEOUS garments, and way too many pearls, yet there are some really good ideas. I've tried to include photos of what I like, or don't mind, and am trying not to show all that I find wrong with this. 

I really didn't get the collection until I put my mind in Karl's. The scene was that of solar panels and windmills. The garments were basically haute couture post apocalypse. The materials were a bit strange, but I think he was trying to go with anything that looked like a solar panel. The dress below is stiff yet elegant. I particularly like his play on accessories. I HATED the purls though. They were very over done, in a way that was almost like he was trying to keep everything uniform in some way or another. 


I love this little bag. Its different, small, cute. 

The makeup was very sexy alien. Thank god it was kept simple. 


I love me a Lindsay Wixon. Thank god she is in a normalish outfit! the dress underneath is one of the only classic Chanel pieces in the collection. I really enjoy the modern raincoat overtop. Personally I don't enjoy drop shoulders though. The shoes are UGH, but yes they are in trend for next season. 

This outfits modern Chanel. If Chanel went in this direction I'd be happy. 

This dress has NO shape, the jewelry is too much, but up close the handmade textile is amazing. 

WHAT IS THIS?! REALLY KARL?? leave this to DSquared.

These hats are SO much fun. If only someone was actually wearing one. I love how they go with the solar panel theme. One day we may need hats that large. 


This one is a little off, but is actually really elegant up close. Some of the little purl buttons have the CC Logo on them.  

Love Lindsay. HATE this dress. 


 I love love this bag, and this shot. Its so over the top! It would be so much fun in editorials. 




Look at her glasses! They have a Chanel cutout on them, with the purl necklace on. If only there were more of these in the collection, and perhaps more than ONE bathing suit!?!! 



A more classic Chanel Look. 

This lego look purse should have been shown more. 


The classic venue, with a modern twist.
