"Yeee HAaaWWww!!!" says Chanel

The Spring/Summer 2010 Chanel show was anything but average.

My dear, Karl Lagerfeld, took Chanel on a hayride, and this was the result....


Umm..Yeah...OK. Ordinarily Chanel does a sleek white runway with ultra-chic designs. Now I'm not saying that Chanel shows are ever ordinary, because we all know that Chanel is one of the HIGHLIGHTS of Paris fashion week.

However, this was very different. I've been reading reviews, and I've come to the realization that Karl Lagerfeld can do no wrong in some people's eyes. I'll admit, he is a fashion genius. However, this didn't really add up to me. The only part of the collection that was connected to the barnyard were the clogs, and I think they only added the clogs to be able to use this theme. I feel Chanel was really reaching for a ways to out-do itself this year. None the less, I LOVED the clothing. LOVED those white jeans on that really skinny model. LOVED the jacket on the first model. Even with the forced theme, I thought the show was fun and exciting...wish I was there...SIGH

Hmmm, now that I think about it, maybe Karl was trying to relay the idea that fashion isn't to be taken SO serious. Fashion is fun, exciting, and different. It doesn't follow the rules. It's whatever you want it to be! Ah-Ha... my revelation!
