Worried about global warming and the melting of icebergs – or just crazy in love with oh so hot high fashion? Environmentalist or fashionista – so be it. Chanel’s Karl Lagerfeld will help you look your very best when the world goes under. Ice, ice baby…
Fashion Week in Paris is a stage set for greatness – a scene in which the kings and queens of fashion struggle to be biggest, best, hottest, most daring – you name it. And the prize goes to Chanel and the house’s designer Karl Lagerfeld, which filled Paris’ Grand Palais with 30 tons of ice from Sweden during Chanel’s A/W 2010/11 ready-to-wear show . «Global warming is the issue of our times. Fashion has to address it». Spot on.
On the icy catwalk, every model wore some element of fur: faux fur. Yes, Karl Lagerfeld has taken a stand - «The whole thing was fake, every bit of fur – But that seems right for the times«. Surely, the times they are a-changing!
Fake has never looked better – get ready to indulge in faux fox trim, head-to-toe patchwork polar bear mix, sable fur hot pants and oh so hot and chunky cavewoman boots.
Apocalypse – I welcome you, in fashion to die for…
