Skyline Couture – Karl Lagerfeld appeared to be inspired by air travel and stewardess uniforms for Chanel’s spring 2012 haute couture collection presented earlier today. The Grand Palais was transformed into the interior of an airplane with models walking down the aisles in elongated silhouettes and extended shoulder winged sleeves. Playing up the jetsetter theme, blue was a dominate hue for spring with sky blue, sapphire and navy all making an appearance. Amid the blue display, there is crystal beading, drop pocket dresses and pleated skirts.

  1. what’s up with the bride’s gown? With all these amazing textures and fabrics it makes the girl look ugly in it, is that what the bride wants?

  2. I don’t like anything in this collection (which looks more like ready to wear than haute couture).  Maybe if more attention was paid to the clothes than the grandiose sets/runways Karl seems to be doing it would be better.
