Now, I know I’ve got no business critiquing Karl Lagerfeld, and I’m aware that the Chanel couture collection is receiving rave reviews–Style.com called it “brilliant”–but I don’t get this particular piece.
Lagerfeld, leader of the pack at Chanel, was quoted as saying this collection is all about the profile: “Everything is flat at the front. It’s all side effects.” So maybe this looked different from the side, but when I see this from the front, I can’t help but be reminded of the Abominable Snow Monster from Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.
Very gauche of me, I know. But I’ll make it up by showing you ensembles in the collection that didn’t make me think of live action figures:
The side profile thing is quite fascinating in this collection–it makes you see things from another perspective.
