  • Pre-Fall 2012

Yesterday at the Grand Palais in Paris the Paris-Bombay-themed collection inspired Chanel Pre-Fall 2012 runway show treated guests to an elaborate display with a banquet complete with champagne, jewels, colours and fabrics of India. The delicately detailed garments were juxtaposed dread locked updos and nose rings for a high contrast. The updos were adorned by jewel encrusted head pieces and complimented by impossibly stunning diamond tear-drop earrings. Chanel tradition with a much loved twist.

So, Karl, if pink is the navy blue of India, what’s the navy blue of Chanel? He thought for a nanosecond. “Black. No. Black and ivory.” (vogue.com)

Not going to lie though, those white boots are insanely hideous.
