Rule #50: Never confuse movement with actions.

Chanel Paris – Bombay Pre-fall 2012 Métiers d’Art show
@ the Galerie Courbe in the Grand Palais in Paris


This year the line was focused around the theme of ‘Bombay-Paris’. Three words: full of opulence! The jewels, gold tweed, silk, nose rings, bindis, tikas,and strings of pearls! Very impressive and it's so inspiring to see influences from all over the world translated into his collection yet maintaing that true classic Parisian style of Chanel. This is one of the best that he has done, in my opinion. I would never have imagined Chanel embarking on this Indian inspired path…yet the effect is pure brilliance! The Grand Palais transformed into an Indian-themed dinner party was just...oh so magnificent! I was also pleased to see a handful of Indian models walking in the show!

“It’s a concept of India. More Chanel than India. The Parisian version of an India that doesn’t exist,” said Karl Lagerfeld. Ahhhhh, Uncle Karl is such a genius he deserves a kiss from me! :-*
