This years Chanel Spring/Summer collection has had a whole range of colours and collaborations from shiny pink, multi-colour and head-to-toe denim. One thing I realised throughout the catwalk is that a lot of the garments are layered on top of each other (even though it is summer) its tops layered with cardigans, trousers and a skirt with a jumper round the waist and the neck layered with jewellery and the head either with a few headbands or a hat and sunglasses. Everything got put with everything. The look was either the classic tweed suit or every pattern put together.

For Spring/Summer 16 Chanel goes from one extreme to another however each colour combination works on a few outfits then it moves onto the next colour. Each colour combination has at least two outfits other than the single tweed suits. The collection finished off with some amazing double denim looks. While thinking of my catwalk photo shoots and my Chanel Editorial i'm looking into the colour combinations and how they style there looks. Bags are in a lot of the shots and watching the show you can see as the show location is an airport a lot of the models have small suitcases with them.


EDITORIAL 

For my editorial shoot I want it to be edgy however be within the colour scheme of the collection. I like the idea of layering the clothes up and mix n matching the garments so I want to create something like that. It's hard to chose a particular colour as this year Chanel uses of whole range of colours. I love the idea of denim and the whole double denim thing as its previously been really in fashion and I can mix the colours of the collection with the denim colour i'm going to use such as blue denim and blue and black denim and white. This will be within the line of Chanel denim and also the colour scheme. I will  be taking elements from the collection and the colours and creating a whole new outfit styled for editorial. My story for the editorial as a first initial thought is denim summer. I want my editorial to be on location as when researching back through different years of spring/summer lines the editorial is mainly outside (since it is summer) so I would like to stick with that tradition of being on location for the editorial. I would like to incorporate some type of denim on both models either an over-sized denim jacket on each model then the rest of the outfit within the colour scheme of the collection using a colour combination each.


CATWALK

Catwalk is based more on the collection itself however the catwalk photos doesn't have to be full length as I can be a 'behind the scenes' look a close up of the models face for the catwalk. Either way there has to be two make-up and hair looks and my initial thought is a full body slow aperture shot for the catwalk and another close up of the model more of a behind scenes styles of the make-up. For the clothing i'm thinking layering it up and using the brighter colours such as the red, blue and white combination for the catwalk and the close up will be only waist upwards so a top and then the make-up and hair.

For the spring/summer ready-to-wear editorials they use the location of being on the street however the first image looks very smart as the models are stood in front of a car and both models are wearing dresses and had a piece of luggage each. The others are definitly more street however the clothing is rather the opposite with tweed jackets and dresses. For my editorial I want to go slightly the opposite way and go a little more casual however when thinking of using denim I wonder if it fits in with the collections over all look and Chanel itself as they tend to go quite smart with the tweed jacket, trousers, skirts and dresses.

The street editorial photo shoots were wearing all the garments from the catwalk show and the collections editorial is based around two models who are both wearing different outfits and is shot in different street locations. The other editorial photo shoot is based around three models and is the cruise spring/summer 2016 collection and its a mixture of bright colours and all is all shot in front of a natural landscape of trees and flowers. 



POP COLORS

The Korean street style is a blend of influences and colors infused by K-Pop. These inspired Karl Lagerfeld the shades of the Cruise 2015/16 collection.




"POJAGI" PRINT

Signature print of the Cruise 2015/16 collection, the "pojagi" is an ancient Korean cloth used to wrap presents. The wrapping, part of the gift, ensured love and good wishes. Patchwork "pojagi" were crafted by Korean women out of silk pieces assembled with invisible stitches. Therefore, there isn’t any right or reverse side and the cloth delicacy allows the light to show through.

The 2016 cruise collection was bright and quirky with the traditional black and white and some embroidered clothes nearer to the end of the collection. This collection was shown in May 5015 along with the pre- spring/summer collection so even earlier than the spring/summer 2016 ready-to-wear which was shown in October. The show had elements of Korean influence from the materials to the colours and style. The collection definitely shouted out summer through the bright garments and the beautiful editorial shots for the collection which is full of nature and life. The make-up was beautiful and worked well with the collection as it was bright and striking.

The lips were a bright pink/orange and two brown lines were drawn above the brow and below hightling the shape and area but not filling them in and exaggerating the size and shape. The eyes has a small black liner with a flick and the models had doll like lashes with lashes on the top, long and separated and the bottom had around half or quarter of a lash glued to the bottom in either the center of the eye or the edges of the eye. The skin was flawless and had a touch of pink of the cheeks. The hair was in a center parting and slicked down while an hair attachment was placed on the top of the head a rather large plaited round piece which was the same colour; a dark brown used on every model even if there hair was blonde. The large round plait definitely stood out as it was thick, darker colour and was placed sitting on the crown.

SEOUL, MAY 4, 2015

There were so many reasons why the Chanel Cruise collection that Karl Lagerfeld showed in Seoul tonight made perfect sense. From a design point of view, Korean traditions offered him a trove of inspiration much newer than the familiar tropes of China and Japan. From a cultural point of view, the K-Pop phenomenon had all the color and sugar-rush kick that Lagerfeld could possibly crave. And then there was the inescapable business perspective: Judging by the strikingly stylish audience, the local clientele might be just about the best advertisement Chanel could possibly want. Coco herself never made it this far east, but she would surely have been as impressed as Lagerfeld was to see at least 12 guests in the same dress Gisele Bündchen wore in the Spring 2015 show while he was doing his finale circuit. Incidentally, Mrs. Brady was in the front row. So were Kristen Stewart, Tilda Swinton, and Isabelle Huppert. The modern Chanel is a broad church.

And it travels. Several hundred journalists from all over the world assembled in Seoul, so pie-eyed with jet lag that they couldn't help but wonder how Karl himself managed to seem so entirely on top of it all. His solution for circadian dysrhythmia was simple: fly private. "I ask for everything because I want nothing," was his irrefutable rationale.

Quotable Karl was in full effect in Seoul. "I have no idea of any kind of practical life," he insisted at one point, declaring that the extent of his household activity was opening the fridge door. And yet there is always a practical something in Lagerfeld's collections for Chanel. Here, there was a sprinkling of sober little jackets, half-belted high in the back. A drop-waisted pleated dress was proper smart. A gorgeous tweed ensemble wove the Korean characters for "Chanel," "camellia," and "Cambon" into an elusive pattern.

It was, in fact, this integration of the host nation into the collection that created its most special effects. Past and future knocked boots (they were actually leather stockings). The models were made up like manga kewpies, their hair concealed under big "hats" of braided black hair, a reference to Korean tonsorial tradition. The major visual motif was a busy and brightly colored patchwork, a technique, which, Lagerfeld said, is only found in Korea. The mother-of-pearl embroidery that traced a black wrap dress was inspired by the decoration on Korean wedding chests. The high empire line and flaring sleeves on full-silhouetted dresses were Lagerfeld's sublimation of traditional garb.

But then there were the oddities, synthetic, like people imagine K-Pop culture to be: wide patent pants, turquoise lace culottes, more lace with a sheen that looked like it had been washed in petrol. Lagerfeld trimmed tweed with patent, and attached a cream patent collar to a black gown. Jarring, unexpected flourishes. One outfit had a tabard of abstracted camellias. "Mechanical," Lagerfeld called them. They found their match in the perkily hiccupping electro of Michel Gaubert's soundtrack.
