Chanel Cruise 2012 Collection
The fashion industry has really amped up their design game beyond the routine of Fall/Winter & Summer/Spring collections. In order to compensate for heightened demands, labels have created Cruise or Resort collections for consumers in the market for new threads in between seasons. Among the crop of high fashion labels, Chanel is the highest caliber & this 2012 Resort season, that title is defended with excellence. Inspired by the 30's, Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld expresses & defines his love for fashion of the past, like many other seasons before. Revealed on the runway, which was set up on the French Riveriera at the Hotel du Cap, Lagerfeld describes the collection as "the other side of paradise". The palette is an extension of what we've seen for this season, with slight hints of milky pastel. While the look book images we have here were shot by Lagerfeld in black & white, the collection hosts a number of tones including soft yellows, salmon pinks & egg-shelled whites with accents of flowing florals & black & white designs all at once. Vintage silhouettes, exaggerated design lines & hints of design modernization are seen as the Chanel signature birthed by Lagerfeld in our modern day remains perfectly intact.
