Chanel, the single word can evoke excitement in just about any woman who hears it. What began as a simple, straight-forward approach to fashion by Coco Chanel in 1909, designed to let women be comfortable while still looking polished, has been transformed into a luxurious, refined style for fabulous women.
Their handbags are legendary, their tweed suits featuring a fitted-at-the-waist knit jacket are one of the most copied fashion staples in history.
For his Fall 2011 Collection, Karl Lagerfeld channeled a dark world, with a nod to an apocalyptic landscape, with a grim color palette and a slight distressed, if not tattered feel. He married the Chanel classic look with urban street style effortlessly and presented one of his most eye-catching collections to date.
