Chanel Fall 2017

 During Paris fashion week, Karl Lagerfeld displayed the future of fashion through an extravagant runway show in the Grand Palais. The futuristic theme of the show was evident not only in the clothing, but in the set. The Grand Palais had a giant space rocket in the center that, with the help of hydraulics and pyrotechnics, shot 115 feet into the air. I chose to watch this fashion show because the set design was appealing and I am familiar with the designer and fashion house. All the models walked in glittery lunar silver lunar boots with black tips. The show also included the signature Chanel tweed, stand away collars, metallic leathers, and padded space shawls. The color pallate was consistent throughout the entire show. There was an abundance of white, gray, and black which is synonymous with Chanel's identity. There was also colors unique to this show like some rich dark red, navy, and purple inspired by planetary surfaces. Another exiting part of the show was that there was some menswear included. Karl Lagerfeld is a man who certainly hates to look back and thirsts for innovation. I always look forward to seeing his work, and he never disappoints.
