Chanel Cruise 2013

The show was opened by this season sweetheart Cara Delevingne. It took place in Versaille. In context of François Hollande win in the presidential race, the clothes, inspired by the times of Marie Antoinette (and considering the place) and Louis XIV royal court, drew a lot of attention.

Personally we loved the hats: [is it possible to make those as a DIY home project?]

We leave you with pictures, video and Karl's photo:

See you soon,

MODEL Monday

Hi! We survived exams, disappointments in fashion industry, tiredness, first summer heat, and then we stopped whining and complaining and wrote a post.

We've been waiting for the event, which is the subject of today's post, for several months - since February 2011, when a huge diamond sparkled for the first time on supermodel's finger and reps of both sides - Kate's and The Kills guitarist's Jamie Hince - confirmed the engagement rumours. Last weekend (from Friday July 1st to Sunday July 3rd) runaway star and British rock star tied the knot in the Cotswolds, UK. The guest list was impressive: Karl Lagerfeld, Daphne Guinness, Emmanuelle Alt, Carine Roitfeld, Anna Wintour, Stefano Pilati (who handled his job - suits for the groom and for his 'best woman' The Kills vocalist Alison Mosshart - amazingly well), Marc Jacobs, Mario Testino, Lara Stone, Jude Law and other A-list guests. Let's not forget about Jefferson Hack, EIC of Dazed&Confused, Kate's ex-boyfriend, father of her daughter Lila Grace, he also attended the ceremony. Scandalous and unpopular particularly this season John Galliano created the wedding dress (attended the ceremony as well, despite the displease of the fashion world with his recent behaviour). We have to admit that we love Kate's dress and we are very happy that she didn't follow the advice of British Vogue's EIC and didn't choose Alexander McQueen, because the main reason we love fashion is its variety.

During the festivities Kate also wore a full-length dress, a mini-dress and a suit by Stella McCartney, who was among the guests as well.
You can see more photos from the event @ Vogue.co.uk:

And a bit of Cotswolds:

Let's wish the newlyweds a long and happy life together!

PS: several guests had to leave the celebration early because of another big summer wedding - the one of Monaco's Prince Albert II and Charlene Wittstock. We'll talk about it soon.

And now... the main question: the wedding dress - YAY or NAY?
