Like the rest of Chanel’s Spring 2010 collection, the bags that we saw walk their runway (barnway?) were more rustic-chic than classic Parisian. Whether that’s your thing or not, Karl Lagerfeld certainly seems to believe in it.
The problem with Chanel, though, is that for better or for worse, they have a lot of aesthetic history to consider when a new collection is designed, and Lagerfeld usually chooses to acknowledge that history. What that means is that mostly, Chanel doesn’t innovate. They do something different here and there, and a lot of their bags are quite lovely, but rarely do we see them starting new bag trends.
I don’t know if that’s a positive or a negative – it just sort of is. If you like their aesthetic, then I’m sure you’re completely fine with what they do and how they do it. If you don’t, there are plenty of alternatives on which to spend your money. There are a few unexpected things in this accessories, but mostly it’s just the same bags we’ve seen with slightly frayed edges. I can totally understand if that’s what they want to send to retail, but I also can’t help but wish Lagerfeld & Co. would embrace the fantasy of the runway a little bit more in the accessories department
If Marc Jacobs can reinterpret the plastic trash bag, then Karl Lagerfeld than rework the straw egg basket for the Spring-Summer 2010 Womens Chanel collection. It’s times like these I wonder if designers have spies in other houses reporting back to them, feeding their respective bosses vital information.
‘What? Marc is showing trash bags? I must do the same, no, I must do better! Bring out the egg baskets!’
Nuff said.
Here I am going to present this Chanel Large Stitched Calfskin Hobo Bag to you. Actually I was rather confused at why this bag is attributed to the Pairs-Moscow2008/9 collection. In order the find out the reason, I watched the record of the Pairs-Moscow Fashion show held in Ranelagh theatre on December 3rd, 2008 again as well as the interview of its creative director Karl Lagerfeld. This collection is to illustrate Chanel’s Russia connection, which is an inspiration from the romance between Coco and the Russian Grand Duke Dimitri Pavlovitch. It focuses on three elements, constructivism, imperial Russia and folklore. Therefore, this large hobo is created for its constructivism.
I would like to call this bag simple. It is true in its pure white color and smooth line. You can not find any shining studs or decoration items on the bag. It is all about ultra craftsmanship in stitching. Even its logo double large C is stitched discreetly. The bag is carried via a large jewelry silvery gold chain, whose seam to the bag body is strengthened by triangular leather. Although the bag maybe a little bit simple for attending evening parties, it is suitable for daily carrying. Enjoy a taste of being celebrity with a cheap Replica Designer Purses.
Emerging in Chanel handbag collection Paris Moscow Fall 2009, this Large Soft Lambskin Tote Bag as its Fall couture, is comparatively toned-down and does not manage to outstrip the genius of previous Spring collection. That is the annoying thing when you are competing against yourself.
Objectively speaking, this tote is indelible if ignoring glamorous Spring Chanel handbag collection. All the Chanel craftsmanship was there, of course, and impeccably achieved. Soft lambskin is crafted in quilted pattern, which is the vintage appearance since Coco Chanel created and used it in Chanel 2.55, and innovated by Karl Lagerfeld in pyramid effect. The interlaced chain is another classic symbol in Chanel handbags and used as a belt to tight the closure in pleated decoration. Dazzling silver CC pendant adds more intrigue to its feminine style and hints people its noble status.
Neither in a rigid rectangular shape nor featuring a precise flap closure, its easy and breezy fa?ade is more suitable for relaxed time such as shopping. White color is the favorite palette from Karl Lagerfeld, which is proved in his 09 Spring White Paper Show- the luxury concentrated on a single idea, not just the materials.
As for its dimension, it is a pity that I cannot supply it exactly for Chanel official website ignored them. Considering Karl Lagerfeld’s single conceit, it is easily understood that Chanel just searched a winning wardrobe of wealthy women. Regarding to its price, I bet it must be ridiculously hefty albeit it is weaken than Spring handbags. Enjoy a taste of being celebrity with a cheap Replica Designer Purses.
Here I am going to present you the Orylag Muff Bag from Chanel. It is also among the Paris-Moscou 2008/9 collection. Compared to the large stitched hobo bag I have commented the other day, this muff bag is more cling to the fashion show luxurious air.
Crafted in deep red orylag muff, the bag is cutely thick. Its color and shape reminds me of the imperial Russia and folklore that Karl pays special attention to. There is something similar in totally different cultures. In ancient China, the use of deep bold red was the privilege of royal family and noble men. Later it is wildly used in folklore like paper-cuts and Chinese knots. It is the same in Russia. Perhaps there is no different in fashion kingdom. Or to say that we have similar appreciation ability toward beauty and aesthetics. This special material is very noble and elegant for carrying. Therefore, it is very suitable for attending dazzling evening parties. Besides being creative in material choosing, the bag also insists to the concept of tradition. Just like most Chanel bags do, it features flap guilloche CC Closure and twisted silver chain. Treat yourself with a cheap Replica Handbags.

Frankly speaking, I did not see any remarkable feat in Chanel’s design and craftsmanship from this Classical Stitched Vinyl Bag. It is said that all of the creative elements of Chanel’s branding are immensely, luxuriously over the top in ways that few other brands can touch, except Louis Vuitton. However, I cannot say any creative elements from this bag. What Karl Lagerfeld did is just revamping- interpreting vintage Chanel 2.55 in a new way- not yet in trendy way, just changing quilting pattern to flower plus CC logo.
Nevertheless, it is still sumptuous and elegant. Copying the fa?ade from Coco Chanel destines its noble and subtle style. The quilted leather is embroidered with flowers composed of C from Chanel logo instead of quilted diamond and herringbone pattern on the exterior, which may adds more intrigue to its ultimate ostentation.
Karl Lagerfeld kept an array of details from Chanel 2.55. No matter the front flap CC turn lock called the “the Mademoiselle Lock”, or the interlaced chain inspired from the key chains caretakers held at their waists in the convent, even the zippered compartment at the inside of the front flap, which is where Chanel is rumored to have stored her love letters in her original bag, they all represented in Chanel Classical Stitched Vinyl Bag to lure your heart and catch your eyeballs.
Coco Chanel once said the nature gave you the face you had at twenty, it was up to you to merit the face you had at fifty. Maybe neither you are fifty, nor twenty, yet it is ok to merit your face at any moment. Find more Replica Designer Handbags on sale.
Perhaps this Matriochka Russia Doll Enamel Bracelet Bag is the most adorable piece among the Chanel Pairs-Moscou 2008/09 fashion show. This cute bag embodies one of three most vital elements: Russia folklore. And the bag is advertised by Lilly Allen, who is chosen to ad for Chanel by Karl.
It would not be too exaggerated to say that it is a marvelous combination of two cultures. Lily, the self made cool fashion girl, has the typical European air; while the bag’s pattern-Matriochka Russia Doll is the most representative element of Russia folklore. Therefore, it is a god-match of Pairs and Moscow.
The bag enjoys a name that derived from the Russia female first name “Matryona”, which is used to refer a set of wooden figures that can be pulled apart to reveal another figure of the same sort inside. This idea is much more creative than the nowadays bag-in-bag style. However, you are not likely to find another bag in this doll bag.
Having no detail information about the bag, I can only make a wild guess. The doll shaped bag must be covered with a very fine soft black leather, on which is trimmed with three large double C logos and a flower brooch made from shining metallic hardware. The face of the doll perhaps is paint by golden enamel and a cute flower hair clip is on the left top. I would rather to take the chain bracelet as the long ponytail of the little girl, who will save your essentials in her heart. Find more Replica Designer Handbags on sale.
Chanel and Mademoiselle Coco have the special feeling towards Russia. In 2009 pre-fall collection for Chanel, its creative director, Karl Lagerfeld, picked up a few ideas from Moscow, a mesmerizing city that captured the heart and interest of Coco Chanel many years ago.

Besides she last showed a collection in Moscow in 1967.
