A BARN AND A LESSON IN ETHNICS

Yes, a barn, at Chanel of all places.But it was inspired by Marie-Antoinette's barn, so it's all good.

I don't know about you but I'm not a clog-fan, but I guess they match the whole countryside theme. Oh Karl... you never cease to amaze us!



And after 2 seasons of somehow very un-Dries like collections, Van Noten went back to his roots. He showed a very ethnic collection, lots of prints, and really, I think he is the only one who can mix such an amount of prints and still make it look effortless.

The detailing for Dries's collection was stupendous. I loved the sunglasses with the print rim.

As for the Kaiser, I'm convinced he can do no wrong. I can't hate on someone who has created such an awesome uniform he's worn so proudly for 20+ years.

I actually like the barn a lot. It's not the typical chanel and therefore it was suprising and refreshing.
