Dreadlocks couture and pop bright eyes @ Chanel AW14

Supermarket shopping will never be the same. Chanel’s AW14 show was bold, provocative and brilliant, it was a celebration of consumerism, from the ‘grand magasin’ set-up to the outfits. Lagerfeld’s message was crystal clear and as far as beauty’s concerned, we got the point: from now on it will be ok to go grocery shopping in Chanel tweed, whether it is worn as a coat or in the hair.

Grazie a Kaiser Karl, d’ora in poi andare al supermercato sarà un’esperienza molto meno banale. Per l’AI14 di Chanel, il direttore creativo della Maison, ha creato un allestimento da mille e uno scontrino, dando vita e brandizzando un intero supermercato, ubicato niente meno che al Grand Palais. Le modelle erano libere di sfilare fra le corsie e gli scaffali brandendo carrelli della spesa e cestini a catenella e indossando giacche di tweed e dreadlock couture adornati dallo stesso tessuto di lana.

Jungle fever @ Balmain AW14

Balmain goes jungle. For next fall Olivier Rousteing created a fearless mash-up of hip hop style and safari chic and Mcknight and Pechuex followed him promptly. Make-up was barely there, as the girls were ready for an expedition into the wild, and an unbrushed, lazy ponytail with a strict center part showed off the neckless and the earrings of the collection.

Per il prossimo inverno Balmain si è fatto selvaggio. Olivier Rousteing, direttore creativo della maison, ha dato vita a un impavido ibrido di stile hip-hop e jungle fever che è stato colto al volo per il beauty look da Sam Mcknight e Tom Pechuex.
