Chanel - Haute Couture Autumn/ Winter 2014/15 Collection

Within the walls of the Grand Palais Karl Lagerfeld pays tribute to Le Corbusier who, at the beginning of the thirties, designed a flat with a terrace that overlooked the Champs Elysées where modernity was contrasted with some 18th Century elements. The designer’s idea was to rebuild this flat with big concrete walls inlaid with plain air chimneys and Baroque mirrors. This aesthetic is rediscovered in the new Chanel couture silhouette for next winter with concrete embroideries and lace imprisoned inside silicone for kind of ceremonial overcoats and dresses. The suits with lightly flared skirts allow small Bermuda shorts to escape. The look is modern, the outline slender, aided by the flat gladiator sandals. In the evening, the embroidery takes over the white dresses, whose technical prowess lies in the construction of these couture sheath dresses, which lack couture as the designer explains backstage. The bride in her dress and her long train, embroidered with golden thread and Arabesque motifs, provides a surprising end to the show with her lovely pregnant stomach.
