*Ghetto Royale* & Fab Frivolity Rule Chanel Cruise 2013 Show Held at Versailles
“Frivolity is a healthy attitude,” Karl Lagerfeld explains about his “Versailles in a Socialist France” collection for Cruise ’13. “I know folks who were saved by frivolity.” Meaning 18th century deets & silhouettes – like bottom-heavy panniers – in lightweight 21st century chambrays, tech-forward denim and even plastic. Plus ruffles. And sneakers – but with platforms to make them much more Marie Antoinette-approved.
Above the neck, Peter Phillips, Inventive Director of Chanel Makeup opted for tres let-them-eat-cake shades of rose and petal pink and particular runway-only mini velvet “tattoos” of the iconic interlocking-Cs logo. Along with Sam McKnight’s Dutch-boy bobs in pastel hues, the overall impact, according to Phillips, was meant to evoke “girly” but “rebel”.

Luxurious Shoes for Your Feet & Your Karma
“I have been in the fashion sector over 25 years pushing the boundaries to uncover eco luxury goods,” explains shoe designer Rebecca Mink. “In the year 2000 I created my personal choice for footwear producing sexy, trendy, high quality vegan and eco friendly shoes offered to everyone.”
Right after being shown the door by sixteen factories all refusing to even contemplate manufacturing such a shoe – it had to be fully cruelty-free of charge, animal-free of charge & produced from recycled & sustainable supplies – she met Marco Gambassi, whose family has been crafting shoes for generations for the likes of Chanel, Jimmy Choo, Dolce & Gabbana & Christian Louboutin. Even though undeniably dazzling and downright attractive (fans incorporate Natalie Portman & Rosario Dawson), Mink shoes are equal – if not slightly superior – to their leather counterparts. “Machine-tested for durability, Mink shoes outlast their standard counterpart thanks to Italian engineering,” adds Rebecca, “and all with no harming animals and the planet.”
