On Chanel spring/summer 20016 couture show tones from natural colours are around. Lots of white, cream, beige pink and few black fabrics decorate them with rhinestones, pearls, glisters and sequin. The make up its natural focus on the eyes with strong eye liner and the hair chic, classic, tidy, glossy shape bun around the head.
"The focus was on the Chanel suit, which featured neat fitted jackets with oval sleeves partnered with skirts of varying silhouettes, from strict and midi length pencils to full skirts and breezy, wide culottes.
Pleated dresses were feather fine, while even woolly, natural coloured tweed skirts – where fragments of shaved wood was woven in – looked lightweight, with hemlines splaying into full fringes. That nod to nature extended into night-time hours too, a dress had sleeves embroidered with feathered bees, others boasted wooden birds, and of course petal appliques abounded. But the most magnificent arrived with capes that were painted and embellished in twinkling rhinestones.
And so to the finishing touches: crystal dragonflies, bees, and other bugs posed as brooches, shoes took the shape of a satin two-tone ballet pump atop a cork wedge and waists were accessorised with a chicer version of a bum bag – Chanel called it a smartphone pouch, because even an eco-girl needs to stay connected. Oh, and a note on the timber set, the house promises to recycle it."
