after the amazing paris-bombay show that karl put on i am left a little disappointed by the repetitive airplane setting. karl has done this before and it worked so much better last time, it does not seem to fit with the theme of this whole collection. the clothes don't really match the hair styling or even the seemingly young cast of models. this seems like it would be more wearable on the older chanel lover and even then i'm not sure it would be flattering. to say that the clothes are frumpy on these beautiful models, would scare any normal woman when buying the clothes. on the other hand there are a few things i like about this collection. the details on the clothes are really lovely, especially in the later looks and the colour palette of the blues works quite well here. i'm sure every chanel lover will be buying this collection, although i think karl needs to reinvent some of his couture ideas.
