Chanel Haute Couture - Fall Winter 2008
Loving Chanel this season. It reminds me of Anna Wintour and that amazing couture dress she wore to the Costume Institute Gala. And Sasha was the bride!

I’m having a love hate relationship with the Chanel Haute Couture - Spring Summer 2008 collection. On one hand, some of the outfits are to die for, very beautiful. However, I hate the presentation. The large tacky Chanel jacket in the background. Why the hell aren’t the models wearing heels. Check out style.it and look at how awful the collection photos are. The models don’t know how to pose in flats and it’s just plain awkward and unflattering. Devon Aoki looks like hell, as does the dress, IMO. The shoes are awful.
I do love the wrap skirts and the jackets.
