Chanel's Pre-Fall Paris Moscou collection features the most divinely over-the-top headdresses that have started my mind wandering on pearls, fur and fringes.
I'm intrigued by the creative process behind these collections and am delighted to have stumbled across these two gorgeous videos that help explain the creative process.
Karl encapsulated his inspiration in this 10-minute silent movie that dramatises how Madame Chanel herself may have come up with a Paris Moscou theme for the collection. The movie stars Edita Vilkeviciute as Coco Chanel and features so many gorgeous hats! Coco was a milliner before she was a fashion designer.
And then there's the present day - a behind-the-scenes of the fitting for the headdresses. The glamour! It's a beautiful day dream of pearls, feathers, jewels, fur, sequins - even wool.
The mood, the music, the lighting - it's all on brand for the collection. Chanel's doing a really nice job of using new media to complement and even extend their collections themes.
