Lily Allen is the new face of Chanel. She was shot by none other than Karl Lagerfeld for their new campaign and brings a more playful factor to the classic French couture brand. For now only a couple of images of the Lily Allen for Chanel campaign have surfaced, but look out for more.
Karl Lagerfeld was spotted this past week at the Chanel boutique on Rue Royale in Paris, shooting the press kit for Chanel’s pre-spring collection entitled Starting Point.
The Chanel Couture show after an all white season, in the autumn 2009.10 heads back to the Grand Palais, homaging the most recognized brand coming out of the fashion house, Chanel N° 5, where giant bottle of the fragrances captured the stage.
THIS IS HUGE NEWS
This is not a fact until you officially read it somewhere else but rumour has it that Karl Lagerfeld will not renew his contract at Chanel and that Albert Elbaz will take his place and Olivier Theyskens will take Albert’s place at Lanvin. Both choices make perfect sense to me. Schaparelli has decided to change directions and do a not so expensive line . Nothing is engraved in cement, these are still just rumours you will have to wait and see.
The crazy Karl Lagerfeld bag that made everybody’s head turn during the last Chanel fashion show is now exclusively available at colette. Its a unique piece!
Chanel is one of those luxury brands, that always stuck to their classic aesthetics over the years, while also showing some great innovation. Karl Lagerfeld still impresses us with his creativity and drive to surprise the crowds. During the last Chanel fashion show they presented the new Perspex Briefcase. The execution of this suitcase is brilliant in terms of look and concept.
