After the Lafayette era! Chanel 2020 early spring series released, these new bags have turned over!

The Chanel 2020 early spring collection was released at the Grand Palais in Paris. The theme of the Chanel show is “Destination CHANEL”. This is the first season of Chanel's early spring vacation series, after the death of Karl Lagerfeld, the successor Virginie Viard as the creative director.

The show setting is still a surprise. Today, the train station of the Beaux-Arts style is built under the dome of the Chanel Palace in Paris. In this series, Virgini inherits the spirit of Gabriel Chanel and Karl Lagerfeld, and with its unique freshness and exquisiteness, based on pure and rigorous luxury and elegance, continues Chanel's story and travel!CHANEL is not selling bags, it is her story.

Virginie Viard is Karl Lagerfeld's closest companion partner and Lagerfeld's right arm. For the past few quarters, Viard has been involved with Lagerfeld in the fashion show.

Destination CHANEL

In this big show designed by Viard alone, we are familiar with the elegant knit suit, the fashionable classic Chanel skirt, the continuous two-color ballet shoes, the embroidered petal evening dress and other items. In addition to Chanel's classic black and white color scheme, Viard brought a new "colored" to Chaenl. Bright pink, green, blue, and rich dark brown, Mocha brown contrast, and the use of these colors, let us see the possibility of Chanel rejuvenation.
It is worth mentioning that although Viard has been studying under Lagerfeld for decades, many of the lines and colours in the series are like a natural extension of Lagerfeld's work. But when Viard was appointed creative director of Chanel, Chanel Fashion President Bruno Pavlovsky said: "Viard will continue along the path set by Lagerfeld, but this is not a simple imitation of Karl Lagerfeld."
In this series, Viard's huge bow elements, printed trousers, and printed flowing dresses all indicate that a woman is now designing fashion for Chanel. Bruno Pavlovsk said before the big show: "Virginie is doing very well. Like Karl, she has the ability to intuitively understand new fashion trends. She has a deep understanding of the Connel brand."

Significantly different from Chanel, which was run by Lagerfeld in the past, Chanel, under the leadership of Virginie Viard, is more relaxed in outlines, and the design from a female perspective is softer, adding wearability and comfort. In this series, Viard made a slight change with the silhouette of the sport, and added a casual attitude from a female perspective.

CHANEL is not selling bags, it is her story

Women love Chanel, love her elegant suit, love his sultry perfume, and love her classic chain bag. Love the fascinating atmosphere that she is born with.

Chanel's founder, Gabriel Chanel, when her mother died at the age of 6. Her father left her and her four siblings, and her aunt raised her adult. In 1914, Coco opened two fashion stores, which influenced the later fashion brand Chanel to be officially born. Those who are familiar with Chanel will definitely recognize the classic 2.55, which is a dream bag for many women.


CHANEL 2.55 is closely related to Miss Coco. COCO has lived in an orphanage since childhood, and its double chain is the chain of the key to the orphanage of COCO's childhood. Its fuchsia noble inside is the color of the orphanage administrator uniform clothes. The 2.55 rectangular buckle was named the Miss Lock, which represents COCO forever. People always call him miss coco chanel.


In 1954, Coco returned to France, and in her usual simple and natural style of women, quickly captured a group of Parisian ladies. In 1983, after the death of Chanel, the Chanel Group was replaced by Karl Lagerfeld as the fashion director, but every season, the new product is still based on the Chanel spirit. Will CHANEL's future style be innovated?


Chanel's life is full of legendary, the man she loves and the man who loves her eventually leave, no one is around him, she dedicated her life to work and fashion. When she left, she was still an elegant old lady who fell ill on the workbench.


Men's style, expensive in simple design, has become one of the important figures in the fashion industry in the 20th century. She advocates feminism, giving women the freedom to act without losing their gentleness and elegance. The brand's classic 2.55 handbag originated from Chanel's determination to use thin chains to liberate the hands of women. Her influence on haute couture women has made her one of the 100 most influential people in the 20th century by Time magazine.

CHANEL's anxiety: How to strive for stability?

CHANEL held the 2019 autumn and winter fashion show in the "Big Snow", and the show was a rare and fascinating show in the industry. Karl Lagerfeld's death was only 14 days, leaving the unfinished CHANEL2019 autumn and winter conference. In a sense, it became one of the most important public relations events of CHANEL.

CHANEL2019 autumn and winter show, the high waist line returned, with the classic tweed jackets appearing every season, and the knitwear full of rich winter vacation feeling, the supermodels collectively appeared in front of the Chanel holiday home. This is the most natural brand advertising blockbuster, and it is also the most powerful announcement. The return of the British supermodel Cara Delevingne, and the opening of this show, is undoubtedly a human confession.


Will CHANEL's future style be innovated?

Karl Lagerfeld has been in charge of CHANEL for 36 years. Regardless of how the industry is turbulent, CHANEL has always had the most stable design style. After the death of Karl, many voices in the industry are worried about whether the design style of CHANEL products will change.
In the industry's view, the CHANEL2019 autumn and winter series, there are subtle changes in the details, including the waist line and accessories.

Two new heads, stability is greater than everything?

Since 1983, Karl Lagerfeld has served as the Artistic Director of Fashion Collections and has pushed it to the pinnacle of the luxury goods industry.

In the 15 days of losing Karl Lagerfeld, the fashion media mostly stayed in the memory and nostalgia for the master. However, for the entire fashion industry, Karl Lagerfeld's death in the entire fashion brief, foreshadowed an important turning point.

Karl Lagerfeld is recognized as the "most stable" in the industry. In the luxury industry today, the more radical and irregular, the CHANEL that Karl Lagerfeld is in charge can always be just right.

However, in the post-Karl Lagerfeld era, there are still many problems to be solved by CHANEL, and where will the future go and become the historical mission of the new head.

As early as 2010, the industry continued to report Karl retirement. In an interview with Numero magazine, he said that he signed a CHANEL life contract and will eventually decide who is the most suitable heir. It is worth mentioning that Karl Lagerfeld revealed that Haider Ackermann is the right person. Later, Karl again denied this statement in public.

After the death of Karl Lagerfeld, CHANEL CEO Alain Wertheimer first appointed Virginie Viard, director of the creative department of the boutique department, to work on the Chanel series.

Louis Vuitton Model Dies

Sam Sarpong
FORMER Louis Vuitton model Sam Sarpong has died after falling to his death from a bridge in Los Angeles, a spokesperson for the County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner has confirmed. He was 40 years old.
Sarpong - who was Vuitton's first black male model - also worked for Gucci, Versace and Tommy Hilfiger, in addition to carving out a successful acting career in the US appearing in more than 60 films and 55 TV shows, reports the Evening Standard. He also released six rap albums with his group The League, which sold more than a million copies.
"It is with great sadness that the family of Samuel Sarpong Jr. must share the news that Sam has passed away," a representative for his family said in a statement. "The circumstances surrounding his death are currently under investigation and no additional details are known at this time. The family appreciates the thoughts and prayers and other expressions of sympathy, and request that privacy be respected at this extremely difficult time."

The brother of TV presenter June, Sarpong moved to America from Britain when he was 11 and found success, fame and fortune in his late teens. "I went from barely being able to pay my bills to now being an international model," he told  Black Hollywood Live in July 2013, reportsUS Weekly. "I made a lot of money early. Luckily I had my father to guide me."
"It is sad and troubling when an individual has become so despondent that he or she feels their only option is to end their life," police chief Phillip Sanchez said in a statement. "These incidents can often have a significant impact on the victim's loved ones, first responders, and the community as a whole. My prayers go out to the family."

Fly! Sail! Travel! with Louis Vuitton at the Grand Palais in Paris

Louis Vuitton finds itself the subject of another Parisian exhibition after the one at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs three years ago, which marked the 15th anniversary of the house’s collaboration with its first ready-to-wear designer, Marc Jacobs.  A new show, opening at the Grand Palais next month, reveals the ascension of the house from modest beginnings to future triumph.
Borrowed from a vintage advertising poster for Vuitton luggage dating back to 1965, the exhibition title Volez! Voguez! Voyagez!  (Fly! Sail! Travel!) sets the tone for an ambitious endeavor that covers the road traveled by the leather goods maker from its origins in 1854 to the present day, taking visitors through 160 years of creation punctuated by both historic pieces and some of the iconic designs that grace today’s fashion runways.
“Along its unique trajectory, the Maison Vuitton turned travel into a recurring motif not just in fashion but in everyday life,” wroteOlivier Saillard, curator of the show, in an introduction to the show’s catalogue. “The timelessness of Vuitton’s singular oeuvre is shown by the contemporary creations that dialogue with the noble, historic shapes that originally inspired them.”
The show will explore the history of the “malletier” or luggage maker in chronological fashion, focusing on the theme of the “voyage” with a vast array of rare pieces, some on loan from the Musée Galliéra.
Along the way, it will also examine the personality of the Maison’s founding members and of those who have made the house the global luxury giant that it is today. “The success of the luggage maker rests on its sense of that grand French chic that finds beauty in function,” Saillard wrote. “Vuitton achieved a form of harmony between the container and its content, with a beautiful and noble packaging that was both discrete and distinctive.”
Spread across nine halls on the upper floors of the Grand Palais known as the Salons d’Honneur, the exhibition will open with an antique trunk, circa 1906, the design of which was innovative for its time and foreshadowed the emblematic codes of the Maison. From there, the range and variety of Vuitton’s techniques will be showcased with a vast selection of the house’s refined canvases, signature locks, writing instruments and eccentric celebrity luggage known as the “superstar trunks.”
The show will culminate with a section dedicated to craftsmanship. “Visitors will surely be inclined to fly, sail, and travel after seeing the show, or they may just allow themselves to dream,” Saillard said

A man charged with punching a woman before stealing her $3000 handbag outside a Civic hotel has been refused bail. 
Christopher Hill, 25, from Calwell, also allegedly attempted to steal the woman's BMW after the assault outside the Crowne Plaza Hotel shortly before midnight on November 8, but was unable to start the car.
The defendant was charged with the theft of the Louis Vuitton bag, $800 in cash, Chanel perfume and lipstick, as well as the attempted theft and assault. The prosecutor indicated the related robbery charges would likely be consolidated. 
Duty defence lawyer Hugh Jorgensen​ said his client, in applying for bail, acknowledged he had a methylamphetamine addiction and had an interview and assessment for a rehabilitation program on Monday. 
"He believes his prospects of getting admitted to that facility are very good," Mr Jorgensen said.  
Magistrate Dr Bernadette Boss said this opportunity did not equate to special and exceptional circumstances, as was required to be established before bail could be given for the relevant charges. 
The matter returns to the ACT Magistrates Court on Monday, November 23.
