Oh, Hey There Chanel.

by The Window Shopper

So I know I’ve been giving serious SCW whiplash lately- windows, broadcasts, birthday shout outs, me… It’s a lot to take in, but I guess this is the direction I’m going in now, so elucidate on that.

This picture is actually not a window at all but a wall, and its deff not Jemima Kirke. Chanel is just like all over the place right now– as in a temporary location on Madison and Karl’s shiteous Little Bo Un-Chic 2013 Resort collection. Which really, I just have no words for. Other than no, and I’m sorry. Sorry that you had a full on aesthetic lobotomy Karl and with really poor timing too, because Chanel’s Resort retails the longest in stores. Whatever, it happens. I mean it shouldn’t, but people are people, and I can’t take it personally, which I totally don’t, but do you know who in the fashion world should be taking things personally? Dior. I mean, Bernard Arnault. So much time and money wasted trying to make people who aren’t Galliano happen… Which is so not happening. Anti semite or not, I’m not having him over for Baklavah, he’s designing for Dior. Brilliantly and beautifully. Something neither Gaytten nor Simmons have proven artistically capable of rendering. Crème Brûlée can never be Jello- and that collection, first Couture or not, was no fucking Couture, nor Dior at all. Tell me, how long can one really bite off their nose to spite their face? Bring back JG like now. No, like last year… And Karl, just stop with the Helena Bonham Carter thing.

Anyway, here is a look at Chanel Resort, then and now…
