The Chanel Resort 2013 collection flaunted Lagerfeld's gift of mastering the beauty of hybrid fashion. The creative genius reinvented Marie Antoinette in the 21st century by intricately mixing formal 18th century details with modern hemlines, contemporary fabrics and a hip-hop charm. Consequently, prompting Paris-based DJ Michel Gaubert to label the collection as 'ghetto royale'.
Every last detail, from the double C beauty spots to the short striking wigs, from the lace ruffles to the pannier dresses, from the traditional gilded jackets to the contemporary mixture of denims, perfectly combined to create a timeless charm. This, coupled with a colour palette which complemented the serene surroundings of the exquisite water fountains, generated an overriding majestic feeling, especially when considering the location of the show.
What do you think of the collection?
