all that's silver and white ::

the Chanel Spring 2010 Couture collection presented in Paris at the end of January was ethereal and bright. white, white, white with a touch of silver and frosty pink. no black, no stripes, no quintessential Chanel emblems or accessories.

a touch of the old was seen throughout the collection, and Karl was able to take the bow (which has been popping up everywhere, for example Tavi's colosal front row bow scandal) and make it his own with chiffon. Silver nails, silver motorcycle gloves and silver chokers detailed the pieces in the most elegant way. Karl's way.

the hair was huge, and the silver grey streaks were very cruella deville. although the mix of style was ranging through the decades, Lagerfeld adds that "fashion is always now" according to style.com. i couldn't agree more.
