Haute Couture week is in full speed in Paris, after the breathtaking Dior collection, the other designers are going to have a very difficult time to reach John Galliano's level of perfection.
The Chanel collection is elegant, timeless. Karl Lagerfeld seems to be pitching the Chanel image to a younger audience as every style is shorter. A lot of shell tones, drapes skirt, and beautiful plisse. However, the shoes are a bit disappointing, flats ,flats and more flats even to pair the evening dresses, I was looking forward to a more surprising collection with high heels and unexpected shoes.

Galliano is a pretty tough act to follow. The only thing I liked about the Chanel show was that gigantic Chanel blouse and that's where the models came in and out.. Lagerfeld losing his touch.. And where is his fan?? I miss seeing him ventilationg himself his signature lace fans.. Overall, Chanel HC S/S 08 only scores a 4 out of 10, with 10 being fabulously couturific!
