So Chanel showed the pre-Fall 2010 collection yesterday, themed “Shanghai,” and besides a lot of leather, fur, and tweed, which is no surprise, you can also find Vietnamese pointy hats adorning the models’ heads.
So Chanel showed the pre-Fall 2010 collection yesterday, themed “Shanghai,” and besides a lot of leather, fur, and tweed, which is no surprise, you can also find Vietnamese pointy hats adorning the models’ heads. Now, I didn’t think calling them pointy hats was the right wording but a Google search yields shitloads of others calling them that so I’m alright. The question is, like Chanel’s Russian themed pre-fall last year and its giant headdresses, is it possible these pointy hats will go intro production and actually be sold? Is there a Chanel CC logo on them somewhere that I’m not seeing and is that the reason they’ll probably be $3,000? I don’t care if they are leather and / or embroidered.

The same thing is going on with the Chanel G.I. Joe here and I guarantee that, when this collection is released in stores, this hat will be on at least 10 people (well, considering the recession, maybe five) I see on the street. Is the Army guy showing up in the Shanghai collection amusing to anyone else? Even if he wasn’t wearing shiny glittery green trousers?

Next up are some kind of craze over the knee red boots that, had they been black, would probably be hyper-chic but the red just makes me think of hookers, which if you’re into that look these could work out for you perfectly. If you do end up wearing these, maybe after working a few nights out you could actually pay them off on your credit card and buy a Chanel tweed blazer to go with them.

Now don’t get me wrong, it’s Chanel and I absolutely love most of the collection. They managed to make this amazing tweed, leather, and yellow work together and it doesn’t make me instantly think bumble bee either. I actually would take this whole look, tweed tights are totally happening.

If you lose the pointy hat and craze feathers happening on the upper arms, I’d be wayyy into this look. I just don’t know what the point of the feathers were.

Also not too sure who’s buying this see-through dress, even if there is a second lining covering all the real action. The red sequin squares just aren’t doing it for me.
newsboy caps can blow me.
Beautiful stuff.
Jen SUCKS.
if you won’t stop posting, at the very least stop saying ‘craze’. there are plenty of descriptors to go around. stop being brain dead and find another.
wait did you mean crazy? thy ‘y’ is prytte closy to thy ‘e’ so i can undyrstand whe eou would do that.
oh wait, no its not.
I love how Jen’s posts serve the sole purpose of perpetuating the myth that women traffic this site
i’m a girl and this is borrrring.
she actually writes a caption below each shot.
Like anybody is gonna read it.
Boy does she suck… my balls.
um if I wanted to read a boring fashion blog I would go read a fashion blog except one that wasn’t boring.
She really does suck.
yeah this is stupid
hey can you post a pic of Jen? puzzlingly she seems to get some credit (or at least keeps getting posted) for being on it about fashion yet not one seems to ever give a shit. what kind of stuff does she wear?
or wait, is this like an awesome set up for the longest joke ever?

Behold: Jen. if you’d bothered to click through to her site, you’d have seen it.
none of these asians have a fucking soul!
that’s a rice paddy hat, man.
Man, seeing Jen’s face really puts a FACE ON IT.
Now I feel bad about thinking she sucks…
i don’t know… i think the see-thru dress is a keeper.
the military jacket on the other hand…
The boots are a Prada rip-off and Baptiste Giawhatever is fugssss as usual.
