One of the fantastic parts of being in New York is that some really phenomenal things, people and in this case a stunning photography exhibit come through town. Karl Lagerfeld {designer, curator, photographer - among other things} assembled this collection of photos with former French Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld. Together, with the help of 109 models, socialites, celebrities and friends of the brand they brought to life a true classic with
The Little Black Jacket.
Anna Wintour
Carine Roitfeld
Kanye West, Dakota Fanning, Daphne Groeneveld etc.
Natalia Vodianova etc.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
The sisters.
Kirsten Dunst, Vanessa Paradis, Elizabeth Olsen & Elle Fanning
I'll be honest, sometimes I feel like Karl stretches himself too thin and what he puts his name on isn't always indicative of his talent or his brand [hello Karl Lagerfeld for Macy's...}, this collection of photographs is not one of those projects. It represents the absolute core of what Chanel as a brand is all about, and expresses Coco's vision that Karl continues to re-imagine every season. If you're in New York, you only have three nights left to go check out this {totally free!} exhibit.
