I really wish I had thought of this first. So obvious . . .

Dystopian dreaminess in Karl Lagerfeld's strangely beautiful new 'short', Window World by Karl Lagerfeld, in which store mannequins come to life. Love the looks and styling of the female models (Magdalena Frackowiak and Barbara Dvorakova) as modern day haute-couture Hitchcock heroines.

Double, double, toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.
Having trouble deciding what to wear this Halloween?? Here are a few of my favourite gothic heroes and heroines to get ideas flowing:
 |
| The Corpse Bride |
 |
| Edward Scissorhands |
 |
| Eva Green |
 |
| Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby |
Alternatively, if none of these are inspiring you, it's halloween, so you can always think outside the box!! Imagine if you will a goth-glam Karl Lagerfeld or Daphne Guinness.....the possibilities are endless. Only a few days to go now....

In 2009, Karl Lagerfeld said this about the recession:
'Bling is over. Red carpetry covered with rhinestones is out. I call it the new modesty.'
Some might say on first glance then that Chanel couture collection for Autumn/Winter seemingly belied this statement as it could only be summed up in one word: Decadent. Oversize bejewelled cuffs adorned the model's wrists and the collection was heavily embellished with fur and jewels.
Despite this however the collection was far from bling, nor was it modest. It was opulent, certainly, but at the same time supremely elegant. Coats with bracelet sleeves and midi-length hemlines invoked a glamour that was refined; more belle epoque than modern. Black and jewel like tones of gold and ruby exacerbated the sumptuousness and richness of the collection.
All in all it was classic Chanel and classic Karl: oh so modern; but exquisitely timeless.
