One thinks she has seen it all, but then here it comes Karl Lagerfeld with the Chanel fall/winter 2017-18 ready-to-wear collection that took fashion from Paris to outer space, hitting it big right before we wave goodbye to this Paris Fashion Week.
Held inside Paris’ Grand Palais, Chanel’s fall/winter 2017-18 collection presentation was an all-round runway show for sure, with creative director Karl Lagerfeld placing a life-size Chanel rocket ship at the center of the runway. Lagerfeld’s ship eventually even blasted off, following a 10-second countdown, and ultimately bringing some Chanel-approved aesthetics in a galaxy far, far away.
Lagerfeld’s rocket ship also served as the perfect inspiration for the collection’s main defining theme, which was all about futuristic fashions. Karl Lagerfeld, who for both Fendi and Chanel has been planning imposing runway shows in the past few seasons, is no stranger when it comes to futurism and otherworldly sources of inspiration, with this specific Chanel fall 2017 ready-to-wear collection probably being one of his most astounding realizations.
The co-ed show’s format brought both male and female cosmonauts on stage, all dressed up in predominantly cold-toned proposals and surrounded by a suggestive all-white setting. Entitled “Chanel Ground Control,” the collection was unveiled in three different color-themed blocks, with their motifs recalling the rocket ship’s own patterns. White, silver/gray and black were thus the collection’s protagonist colors, with a few pops of cold-toned blues and rose shades interrupting the scene at times.
Although such colors usually end up being kind of aseptic, if not entirely impersonal, couturier Karl Lagerfeld managed to “warm them up’ thanks not only to Chanel’s iconic and cozy tweeds, but also warm silhouettes that wrapped up the figures enhancing them. He even translated the outer space theme to futuristic and jocose starry crystal embellishments beaded on the gowns and jackets, which also foreshadowed the ship’s launch.
As for the Chanel fall 2017 runway show’s first part, Karl Lagerfeld filled the runway with grey and silvery separates that, besides being inevitably soigné and timelessly Chanel-inspired in their lines, were also extremely practical and winter-ready, especially when it comes to the jackets and midi skirts. Iconic metallic mini dresses, quilted capes and boots were showcased, too, and we expect them to become one of next season’s ultimate sellout.
The collection’s all-white part got actually predominantly covered with the men’s wear, although the women’s wear line was equally appealing. Here Lagerfeld focused on clean cuts and Sixties-inspired silhouettes, creating retro-futuristic proposals that could easily transition from day to night, too.
Last but not least, the Chanel fall 2017 show’s grand finale took us to the darker side of fashion/space, with the solid-colored, total-black garments being literally lightened up by the aforementioned cascades of crystals. Here Lagerfeld alternated school girl/bon ton separates with more mature, evening-approved ready-to-wear outfits, completing each look with pairs of futuristic cowgirl-inspired boots.
If this is the kind of futuristic fashion industry Karl Lagerfeld is into, well, sign me in!

They will look fantastic in an understated capacity but can certainly handle a dramatic eyeliner design as well. Thanks to the formula you can expect it to stay until you are ready to wash it off.
Chanel Le Vernis
The new shades of Chanel Le Vernis nail polish are dynamic to say the least. The colors have a serious pop to them and are sure to be noticed with the milky opaqueness creating a stable color base for three of the new shades of an orange, a peach and a pink. The real star is the deep stormy grey with the green shimmer built in.
Chanel is always widely received as an incredible brand with great offerings each season. The Chanel Rouge Coco Glass spring 2017 makeup collection contains a ton of new colors that will work on almost any skin tone. The products become internationally available at Chanel.com, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Harrods, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman starting from February 2017.
All of the colors included in the collection are so beautiful that a great many makeup lovers are making space in their makeup bags. Like other Chanel collections, it is highly anticipated as a whole collection, but with a range of 24 shades of lip-glosses there are already people picking out their favorites and putting them on their ‘MUST-HAVE’ list.
Chanel Rouge Coco Gloss Top Coat ($30.00) (Limited Edition)
We have top coats for manicure designs, so Chanel decided it was high time to introduce its lip-gloss top coats that you can wear over any type of lipstick form this collection or from your makeup bag.
Each of the provided lip products is designed to make your lips healthier as you wear them, not just to look pretty. They are also all designed to plump your lips as well, but these amazing options do not cause any discomfort while wearing them.

Chanel‘s Couture spring/summer 2017 collection quickly became, as usual, one of Paris Couture Fashion Week‘s most talked-about topics as soon as the first models made their appearance on the catwalk. Thanks to Karl Lagerfeld’s Chanel Couture spring 2017 show, this Paris Fashion Week has added one more important piece to what already appears to be the Fashion Week’s acclaimed puzzle, designed under the clear notes of empowerment.
For his haute couture season, German designer Karl Lagerfeld decided to celebrate both Chanel’s legacy, inevitably emphasizing the tailoring cuts, and womanhood (here to be intended in its most multi-faceted way). To top it all off, and to keep on delivering the best fashion shows ever, he debuted his creations in a mirrored set that payed homage to Coco Chanel’s iconic staircase in her famous atelier at 31 Rue Cambon.
As if the historic and empowering references weren’t already enough, Lagerfeld also drew inspiration from artist Alberto Giacometti’s “Spoon Woman’ sculpture, to create most of his proposals, focusing all of his artisanal skills on the waists and the hourglass figures.
As many other designers did for their latest couture collections (such as Giambattista Valli and Maria Grazia Chiuri), Karl Lagerfeld also opted for either feathery or crystal embellishments to accentuate the silhouettes (both in terms of the garments and accessories), infusing each one of his staples with a greatly appreciated Art Deco-meets-the-Twenties allure.
With Coco Chanel and Alberto Giacometti being at the core of the Chanel Couture spring 2017 collection, and women empowerment functioning as the founding base for its success, the proposals couldn’t, of course, end up being anything but dreamlike and picture-perfect. “I wanted something impeccable, clean. I wanted the girls to look like walking fashion drawings,’ the designer firmly stated backstage.
As for the astounding ways in which Lagerfeld managed to transpose such flawlessness into fashion, we may divide Chanel’s Couture spring 2017 line-up into three main sections. In fact, although common details such as belts cinched at the waists and cascades of crystals functioned as a common and soigné fil rouge that links all of the pieces with one another, most of the staples differed in terms of cuts, references and lines, especially when it came to the collection’s second part.
Lagerfeld’s take on the couture season started with a new take on the skirt suits, here dipped into Chanel’s signature pastel hues and contrasting Eighties-inspired cuts. As soon as the show’s dream array of skirt suits ended, Lagerfeld gave his best with the different shapes and motifs.
The Chanel Couture spring 2017 collection’s second part features everything from structured chemisiers to layered mini-dresses with sparkling detailing, the shapes of which varied from conventionally Twenties-inspired peplum cuts to Art Deco-infused geometric shoulders. The collection’s second part also sort of got us ready for the show’s imposing third part, among which the breathtaking, grandiose proposals surely prevailed.
Here the fluffiest gowns, the most sparkling bustiers and dreamlike veils dominated the scene capturing a sense of opulence that, for a few minutes, catapulted us into a parallel world, wherein beauty and the willingness to feel fabulously empowered whenever we want are the absolute prerogatives.
Chanel‘s annual makeup release ‘Chanel Le Blanc’ is inspired by KPOP this year. The swatches we have been seeing on Instagram have been beautiful, but what else would anyone expect from Chanel? Each of the products in the Chanel spring 2017 Energies et Puretes de Chanel makeup collection looks amazing, the variety of shades is inspiring and I am certain the number of tutorials that will come from this collection will be in the hundreds. The entire collection launches in late January on the Chanel website, as well as at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Harrods and Bergdorf Goodman.
Plisse Lumiere de Chanel Illuminating Powder (Limited Edition)
This is the illuminating and versatile highlight that everyone is going to want. The washi paper design is set to symbolize the contrast of graphic modernity and traditional craftsmanship on this soft gold reflective powder. The compact opens up to reveal a shimmering golden champagne highlighter that will catch the light from all angles enhancing everywhere the highlighter is brushed onto.
Les Tissages de Chanel Blush
The two new shades of blush feature a mottled appearance designed to blend together for a perfect youthful shimmering glow and just the right hint of color for your cheeks. The formula is smooth, soft and sheer on application.
Chanel Les 4 Ombres Eyeshadow Palette (Limited Edition)
The 2 new options for Les 4 Ombres Eyeshadow Palette for the Puretes de Chanel/ Chanel le Blanc spring 2017 collection will be limited edition. The four included shades in both palettes are designed to complement each other and create beautiful effects.
The formula is pigment rich and each palette contains more than one finish. The colors are intense and long lasting but incredibly smooth upon application. Who wouldn’t want this?!
• No.284 Jardin de Lumieres ” tin grey, pink peach, aubergine, silver • No.292 Jardins Eclatants ” sparkling pink, pearly peach, pink beige, intense copper brown
Chanel Rouge Coco Shine
Rouge Coco Shine is the hydrating, lightweight and sheer lipstick with a formula designed to soften and hydrate your lips for a longer lasting fuller lip appearance. The color deposit is not overpowering but it does provide smooth coverage with a simple swipe. Of the three new colors, only one ” Rouge Lumiere ” will be a limited edition shade.
The Rouge Allure Gloss is incredibly formulated with Green Tea Butter, Sappan Wood, a Vitamin E derivative and pure color pigments to allow both the rich color of a lipstick with a serious shine you would expect from a gloss. It is nourishing and protective for your lips and comes in a very cool ‘one click’ package.
It can also be worn over lipstick to create a high shine look and adjust the intensity of the color. The two new colors are vibrant and beautiful though everyone may want to grab the limited edition Vibration and stock up.
Le Vernis is Chanel’s long-wear nail color so you can trust a chip-free finish that will only last you longer than most other nail polish options, but will not fade either. The colors are rich, with two new shades being debuted for the 2017 update of their annual collection.
The formula for Le Vernis is designed to improve the actual look, feel and quality of your nails. Everything from the classic manicure to nail art is possible, and with less coats of polish than competitors.
Cyber punk, technology and versatility‚Äö√Ñ√∂‚àö√묨‚àÇ the newest Chanel spring/summer 2017 ad campaign has it all! In trying to evolve his fascination for the tech world, which was at the core of the Chanel spring/summer 2017 collection and runway show, creative director Karl Lagerfeld decided to transpose everything cyber and punk to this inspiring ad campaign, which at the same time also features one of Lagerfeld’s favorite artistic means of expressions ” collage.
Like his Chanel fall 2016 ad campaign, for this shoot as well he played with post-editing and collages, letting brand ambassador Arizona Muse venture in a sort of cyber-futuristic, Matrix-revisited world.
In doing so, Lagerfeld made sure Arizona Muse could even be able to interpret and represent all of the different personalities the latest Chanel spring 2017 collection embraced, from the urban-ready to the Lolita-inspired ones. As a result, what we got is a dream array of empowering and inspirational pictures that will surely make history, especially due to their harmoniously balanced contrasting motifs.
As stated by one of Chanel’s official press releases, in fact, Karl Lagerfeld wanted to “play with contrasts as he captures the metamorphosis of a contemporary creature, one minute a pop Lolita, the next a cyber punk.” In doing so, he aimed at enhancing the “explosive combinations from a collection that is feminine and yet ultra-modern.’
As many other brands and houses do, Lagerfeld is also embracing what we could regard as a newness-meets-tradition sort of philosophy, letting modernity find its own special place in Chanel’s feminine legacy and signature patterns. The Chanel spring 2017 ad campaign perfectly absorbs such a philosophy, probably even more than its respective collection, thanks not only to Lagerfeld’s wisely visionary artistic choices, but also to Arizona Muse.
Throughout the whole campaign, the New Mexico-born model showcases all of her different personalities, quickly jumping from the cyberpunk-inspired looks to the most unapologetically chic ones. While the latter got emphasized by utterly elegant and timeless black & white effects, the former got highlighted mostly by a mixture of Eighties- and Nineties-inspired motifs, such as bright bold makeup looks, lingerie dressing and even slightly hip hop-inspired looks.
Although being certainly powerful, Arizona Muse’s looks touch a nerve, the outcomes of which are surely going (and need) to be discussed in the weeks to come.
Bright eyeshadows aside, Muse sports both Bantu knots (which are said to have originated centuries ago in the Zulu tribes) and cornrows, namely two different hairstyles that are often linked to cultural appropriation when worn by Caucasian women.
As usual, the fashion industry is once again helping us broaden our capability of understanding and trying to discuss sensitive topics such as intersectionality and cultural appropriation, providing us with different points of views and perspectives on various issues.
What did Karl Lagerfeld have in mind when choosing to complete Muse’s looks with cornrows and Bantu knots? Where does the fine line that separates cultural appreciation from cultural appropriation stand? These are all questions that we hope Chanel will soon answer.
Although it is still 2016, we already have some exciting news regarding the fashion industry in 2017. While Chanel is officially staying in Paris for its cruise 2018 show, Dior confirmed it is heading to Los Angeles to unveil its cruise collection.
After throwing a party for its Lady Art Pop-up Boutique’s inauguration in Los Angeles earlier this month, Dior’s creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri confirmed her first-ever cruise collection for the house will be unveiled in Los Angeles, too, on May 11th, 2017.
Although no further details have been revealed regarding the Dior cruise 2018 show, we already expect big things coming from both the runway show and Dior’s future cruise collection. It is no secret, in fact, that Maria Grazia Chiuri is planning to modernize the French mansion with elegant yet playful aesthetics, as proven by Dior’s latest spring 2017 ad campaign, too. With Los Angeles being the city of artists, musicians and fun, we bet this choice will bear its fruits for sure.
Things won’t change for Chanel, on the other hand, whose creative director is extremely attached to the French capital city. Karl Lagerfeld just confirmed Chanel’s cruise 2018 collection is still going to be shown in Paris, on May 3rd, 2017.
While it is no secret that Maria Grazia Chiuri is all about cosmopolitan revolutions, Karl Lagerfeld is no stranger when it comes to celebrating the importance of Paris as one of the world’s leading fashion capitals, as he actually often draws inspiration from Paris for his astounding collections. Even when he showed his pre-fall 2016 Métiers d’Art collection in Rome, at Cinecitt‚Äö√†√∂‚Äö√тĆ, he brought pieces of Paris to the Italian Eternal City.
Other examples include one of Chanel’s latest collections, namely the Chanel pre-fall 2017 Métiers d’Art collection, which got instead not only directly inspired by the Parisian streets, souls and vibes, but also got opulently staged at the Ritz Paris.
According to WWD, the idea of “eloping runway shows’ already is one of Paris mayor’s most worrying issues, to which she is trying to find a solution. “Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo hosted a lunch for top editors during the most recent fashion week and solicited suggestions to lure visitors back,’ revealed WWD.
With so many fashion houses and creative directors changing locations and re-shaping the fashion industry (just think about Max Mara’s pre-fall 2017 show recently held in Shanghai), we cannot help but wonder where the main shows will eventually be heading to!
Who says pre-seasonal collections are just the prelude to something more imposing? When it comes to Karl Lagerfeld’s Chanel pre-fall and resort collections, nothing is left by chance, as proven by the latest Chanel pre-fall 2017 collection, too. Opulently showcased at the Ritz in Paris, Lagerfeld’s Chanel pre-fall 2017 Metiers d’Arts show was as unapologetically imposing as inspiring, and left those who were attending the runway show in awe.
Aside from the astounding Chanel pre-fall 2017 collection’s 78 outfits, which is definitely a jaw-dropping number of looks considering the fact we are talking about a pre-fall collection, Lagerfeld’s approach to the mid-seasonal fashion was about treating both the future customers and the show attendants to something they will never forget. Actually, the runway show was unveiled in three sittings, at lunch, tea, and dinnertime, with the dishes being the Chanel pre-fall 2017 collection’s pieces.
Dubbed “Paris Cosmopolite’, Chanel’s Metiers d’Arts pre-fall 2017 show was all about self-confidence and beauty at its purest, here intended as an ode to diversity and uniqueness. Lagerfeld’s choice of “using’ the proposals and thus the models themselves as the dishes was not something he decided by chance either.
“You have to walk as if you are walking into a chic restaurant, convinced that you are the most beautiful and chicest woman in the world ‚Äö√Ñ√∂‚àö√ë‚àö√Ü which you are,’ he explained during a fitting.
And just by looking at the models, we instantly get a better idea of what he was specifically looking for. Among acclaimed top models, such as longtime Chanel habitués Cara Delevingne, Lottie Moss and Ellie Bamber, Karl Lagerfeld asked young muses Lily-Rose Depp, Georgia May Jagger, Levi Dylan, Sistine Stallone, and Willow Smith to join the show, with Lily-Rose Depp actually opening the Chanel pre-fall 2017 Metiers d’Arts show. It appears clear Karl Lagerfeld’s willingness to not only focus on Chanel’s younger audience, but also to ignite confidence in any young woman’s heart.
As for the actual proposals the models were showcasing, Lagerfeld’s fascination for standard Chanel silhouettes and signature color palette was here undeniable, with the latter being particularly diverse. In a coherent continuum of colors, the line-up began showcasing the softest, brightest shades and prints, only then veering towards their darkest counterparts, wherein elegance and a cool Parisian-infused style still dominated the scene.
Each one of the clothes was so romantically dipped into Coco Chanel’s references, even the models felt overwhelmed with such an impressive and ephemerally timeless sophistication and legacy. “Just putting on the clothes, we all felt a little bit of Coco in us,’ Alice Dellal told WWD.
Behind Lagerfeld’s Coco Chanel-approved sources of inspiration, the ones that caught him most were about the Parisian paths Coco Chanel took, which he transposed to a more modern, urban-chic kind of allure.
“For me, it’s a certain idea of Paris: Gabrielle Chanel, the Ritz, the Hemingway Bar. This is the kind of Paris everyone would like to bring back,’ the German designer explained.
“An elegant inspiration from a faraway period but with very modern clothes,’ Lagerfeld continued. “We live in another world. But you can make a collection that is an evocation in the modern spirit of today.’
Although most of the garments definitely focused on strictly Twenties and Thirties-inspired motifs, such as Charleston gowns, dropped waists, feathers and boxy cuts, the Chanel pre-fall 2017 collection also featured distinctive contemporary touches of fashion, such as turtlenecks, oversized cardigans and even metallic fabrics, that flawlessly embodied the Ritz Hotel’s opulent and refined designs.
Above all, in fact, the collection wanted to evoke the “cosmopolitan elegance’ of the people who walked through the doors of the Ritz, as “there were hundreds of dinners in the ’20s and ’30s, where women wore incredible things. But you cannot tell from the collection what decade it is, and I think that is modern, no?’
Fashion designer and iconic artist Karl Lagerfeld must have fallen deeply in love with Cuba indeed, as for his newest Chanel cruise 2017 ad campaign, he took his creations to the Caribbean island once again.
Back in May 2016, for the Chanel Cuba resort 2017 collection, Karl Lagerfeld made history becoming the first creative director to hold a runway show in Havana, Cuba, for which he organized a weekend-long celebration that brought 700 guests and more than 45 models to the island. Pictures, snaps and videos from that imposing and memorable show are still viral, and we bet those from this Chanel cruise 2017 ad campaign (and the backstage shots) will follow a similar path.
To better embody the Chanel cruise 2017 collection, which was all about cheerful patterns, holiday-ready garments and slightly haute couture-inspired motifs, Lagerfeld enlisted two complementary beauties, namely Argentinean model Mica Arganaraz and British androgynous star Stella Tennant. Lagerfeld followed them around Cuba, capturing them on the island’s most iconic and characteristic places, such as Havana’s eclectic backdrops and streets as well as its suggestive rocky coastlines.
“This is all about my vision of Cuba,’ Karl Lagerfeld told The Cut in a recent interview. “But of course, what do I know about Cuba? It is very childish, my idea.’
All of the pictures are, needless to say, harmonious and evocative, as they perfectly capture Cuba’s dichotomist culture, architectures and nature, as well as the Chanel cruise 2017 collection’s elegant street style.
As for the latter, Lagerfeld focused on both Chanel’s signature bon-ton garments, such as tweeds, blazers and boucle jackets (although here revisited through a more colorful lens), and on high-street logo tees, pencil skirts and vibrantly bold sweaters, here often paired with airy and flowy garments. While model Mica Arganaraz is seen sporting and effortlessly embracing Chanel’s street style dream, Tennant translated her iconic androgynous style to panama hats, biker shorts and Seventies-inspired billowy suits in black and white.
Everything exudes a sort of ethereal lightness and carefreeness we yet had to see in a Chanel ad campaign, and that we bet will become a common motif in the cruise collections to come. “These collections, they are not so serious like on the runway in Paris, they are light,’ concluded Lagerfeld.
Every single shot from the Chanel Cuba cruise 2017 ad campaign mirrors Karl Lagerfeld’s visions on fashion, lifestyle and travels, as he, especially in the past few years, has undeniably committed himself to the depiction of a more playful, artistically inspiring and always eclectic fashion industry.
In return, his visionary approaches to fashion also recently brought his experiment with collages and other forms of art for both his campaigns and runway show. Therefore, we definitely cannot wait to see where the next Chanel and Fendi seasonal collections will catapult us, whether it is the Caribbean islands or the jungle’s wilderness.
