CHANEL Lesson of Elegance
lookbook
06/05/13
Much to my delight I received a lovely package from Chanel revealing this cute little composition notebook featuring their Spring Summer ’13 collection shot by the talented Karl Lagerfeld. Designed like an old composition notebook, this cute campaign brochure captures the essence of the new SS’13 collection titled Lesson of Elegance. The collection itself is made up of classic Chanel: monochromatic tweeds, diaphanous multi-coloured chiffon and richly embroidered florals are paired with bright accessories, setting the tone for the season with an airy energetic aesthetic and of course such elements of tweed, quilting and pearls play strongly throughout the collection – detailing of which has become synonomous with the brand. It’s always a pleasure when I receive new campaign images and when it comes from Chanel – it’s always such a beautifully crafted piece of art that I hang on to and keep on my bookshelf.
