Paris Fashion Week: Karl Lagerfeld

THE MAGNIFICENT KARL!!!



Those who know me know of my love for Karl Lagerfeld. The fact that he manages Chanel, Fendi, AND his own line Karl, amazes me. Despite all of the different brands he's responsible no two collections are ever the same. The ability to create collections that do not look the same is simply genius. he manages to remain true to each of the brands' identity, which to me is the most important thing.

On Wednesday he showed his collection simply titled Karl by Karl Lagerfeld. I love his personal brand because it's young and something that I can always see myself in. If money were no object, I'd definitely have pieces from his collection (no matter what season) in my closet!

You really get to see what a great tailor Karl really is. All of these pieces were menswear inspired (that seems to be HUGE this season) yet they each still have this feminine, girly look to them. I love it...again.

Double- and single-breasted pinstripe jackets were worn over pleated miniskirts and straight leg pants

























The dresses were divine













White collars, like the Lagerfeld's own, peeked out from the jackets' lapels, this time with big bows replacing skinny ties.













I love the accessories: oxfords (flat and heeled), big bow ties, fishnet gloves, goth inspired cuffs

























The makeup had the same color scheme. Sexy black smokey, cat's eye look never seems to go away













Overall: A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
