I’ve decided this
weekend I would stop shopping and indulge in a little culture. So I trotted
down to the Saatchi Gallery to check out Chanel’s exhibition “The Little Black
Jacket”.
Karl’s photographs are
breathtakingly beautiful. Somehow being shot in black and white added to their
beauty and made even the odder constructions look classic. From a nunned up
Freya to a Clémence Poésy in an Indian headdress.
Guess who? You'll never guess.....its Carine Roitfeld
A smile? And a Hermes bag in a Chanel shot? It could only be the fabulous Jane Birkin.
Favorite pic? Anna
Wintour!!! Who else could be shot from behind and still be instantly
recognizable.
Best of all? They give
you a free Poster of a print to take home. Hopefully this isn’t the closest
Runway Girly will get to owning a Chanel jacket….but it’s a step.
