From Paris to Bombay: Chanel’s Pre-Fall Collection

29.Dec,2011 Comments Off
Presenting Chanel’s 2012 pre-fall collection; a stunning homage to the extravagance and glamour of historic India.

The theme is ‘Paris-Bombay’, and the clothing a perfect hybrid of the two cites. Chanel’s signature tweed  blends seamlessly with luxurious silks, jewelled headpieces, metallic saris and beaded sandals.

The show held at Paris’ Grand Palais earlier this month was brimming with Largerfeld’s over-the-top theatrics we’ve come to expect, featuring model after model gliding down a circular runway between two long and lavish banquets. Silver trays were piled high with succulent fruits and flowers, and there was even a small silver train that delivered drinks to the guests.
