Chanel Couture Spring Summer 2012 white glittery gown - saved by Chic n Cheap Living

{Fashion} Highlight: Chanel Spring Summer 2012 takes flight

January 26, 2012
Ahh to have sat in one of the “first class” or even “business class” seats at Chanel Spring/Summer!  The airport runway was recreated with this show and the clothing was somewhat of a 1960s homage to flight attendants (err if flight attendants wore Chanel of course!)  Jackets and cuts were boxy and waists were undefined.  While the silhouette wasn’t fitted (I normally don’t’ even take a second glance at dresses with a boxier shape), the detail was typically Chanel and typically divine.  I loved the large beads on the bodice of the dress below – they make a bold statement on a simple dress.  I also think a gradient tweed jacket should be in the works for me some day.
The mixed sizes of the stones and the tulle cape also make the first dress a quirky and wonderful wedding gown alternative no? It is all in the details (hmm or a fab DIY if you had the time)…

    Talk about a glamorous ride. I really like the silhouettes and how the collection feels both retro and futuristic at the same time. And the details are perfection just as one would expect from Chanel.

    Beautiful! I love the way the designer plays with proportions in these pieces. I would love to sit in any section of any fashion show, really – I’ve never actually attended one in person!

    I loved the last dress, even more than all the blue-shaded outfits.

  • Johanna January 26, 2012 at 15:13

    I have to agree, the airport runway was by far one of their best. It was absolutely amazing and made me wish I was there. The outfits were also amazing.

    Gotta love chanel.
