It’s really incredible to see how classics can be reworked and reworked and reworked at Chanel. I really have to hand it to Karl Lagerfeld; he has done for Chanel what any storied fashion house would want — been able to attract new generations of customers. I absolutely love this cream heavily layered sweaterdress, but equeally so, the handbag & must-have enclosure bag is simply pure genius. It’s such a fun concept playing off on the idea how the Chanel quilted bag is an essentail every lady must have. I would be curious to see if any of these pop up come next fashion week – I sure hope so!

So they may not be the most practical of looks, however these embellished tights, found on the runways of Miu Miu’s fall 2009 collection are absolutely stunning. I love how they were made to match the decoration on the footwear, and add an intense oomph to any look. I think I like the cream better than the black, as it is easier to see the detailing against the rib of the tights. I’m not sure if they were made strictly for the runway, or will be for sale, but I can’t help but thinking how to launder them…

There have been some wild and crazy, yet fantastical and marvelous hair creations found on the runways in Paris this season, from odd colors to morphed shapes and ornate head pieces. Below are some of my favorites, that definitely will be hard to forget (and duplicate at home):

Mr. Burrows is back! The collection for fall 2009, dubbed “Bankable Burrows” smartly captured the items that will lead women into future cold-weather seasons with ease, getting the most bang for their buck with quality investment pieces in the form of capes, unique prints, and well-tailored pants and skirts. To turn a blind eye to the current state of affairs would have one hearing the sound of cash registers ringing up sales even less frequently; Burrows understands the value of a solid, salable collection, yet doesn’t let it restrict his creativity or panache. The looks, complimented by Christian Louboutin leapard booties and Robert Lee Morris jewelry prove that classic design with a bit of a twist never goes out of style.
