Chanel Haute Couture SS 2013

Perhaps, Karl Lagerfeld still cannot move the mountain yet, but develop the wood in the middle of Grand Palais to it absolutely under force. The presentation of the new Chanel Haute Couture SS 2013 collection passed with ordinary scope, among big oaks, huge Scottish pines and the intricate bushes which have been specially brought and a tree behind a tree established in showroom «Big Palace» in Paris. Charles said that he saw idea in own dreams which often serve as inspiration for its collections. He characterized the imagination as «slightly German neoclassicism in the romantic wood». Later Charles added that dreams dreams, but «not gods burn pots», and it is necessary to be rather ordinary perfectly to do the work.

To make a dress of dream is too work! On one of the figured embroidered dresses more than 2000 man-hours were required. In other words, if it was sewed by one person, carrying out behind work for 5 hours in day, it would need slightly more than a year to make such style. After display Charles admired the work done by employees of Chanel on an embodiment of its plans.

Without considering own imaginations, Charles found possible to reflect in a collection a sociopolitical situation of France, and directly brisk public debate concerning unisex marriages and possibilities of adoption such pairs. For this reason display was finished by two spouses, in similar dresses with feathers under which skirts trousers are looked through. Though any official expressions on this subject from the designer did not follow, the picture more than is obvious. Lagerfeld smiled and nodded towards the boy who was led by hand by one of brides, as though showing, as to the child it is clear, in what implication.

Without considering easy shocking, the presentation caused ecstasy of public and positive responses of critics. Within the Chanel Haute Couture collection spring-summer 2013 more than 60 models, among which dresses coats from an everyday tweed and the evening dresses covered with spangles were presented. The silhouette named by Lagerfeld «The fixed shoulders» (Frame Shoulders) became a basis for many styles. It reminds the most ancient armor with falling-down sleeves, high racks of a collar and a looking-out bottom layer of clothes. In addition to images the designer used high lacy boots without fingers, a mitten a la Karl Lagerfeld and there are a lot of feathers.

In a choice of summer tendencies the designer appeared on one wave with Dior and Giambattista Valli so with confidence it is possible to argue that light pastel tone, flower compositions and prints – a conclusive trend of a summer season.
