CHANEL Haute Couture Spring 2019 Collection

23 January, 2019 Nelia


The beauty of couture is that you can’t really appreciate it from images alone. It may seem ludicrous to spend an eye-watering amount of money on a gown sprinkled with some sequins, but in reality, these clothes are art – each piece exquisitely made, with every sequin applied by hand, one-of-a-kind. So while going through the photos of the CHANEL Spring 2019 Haute Couture collection, I took my time taking in each image, zooming in to check out the surprises that reveal themselves, like the delicate floral applique made out of feathers, or the dried flowers dipped in resin, or a gown that may appear white on first look, but is actually made entirely out of sequins. Breathtaking!

And while, of course, the mere mortals won’t be running off to boutiques, hoping to score one of these looks, I always hope to see the more creative gowns on a major red carpet, like the Academy Awards. Just imagine Lady Gaga in the look below, or Rachel Weisz in literally anything from this collection?! I know that these two don’t work with CHANEL, but one can dream.

Besides the intricate details, I loved the makeup look created for this runway show. Lower lash line winged eyeliner (instead of the usual top) seems to be fairly easy to replicate, and will surely spice up your usual eye makeup routine, without it being deemed too crazy. CHANEL’s global creative makeup and color designer Lucia Pica used the CHANEL Stylo Ombre et Contour pencil in Bleu Nuit to create the smoky effect, CHANEL Rouge Allure Velvet Extreme Intense Matte Lip Colour in Épitome on the lips, with a coat of CHANEL Rouge Allure Liquid Powder in Invincible on top, in case you wanted to try this at home.

Wishlist: CHANEL Spring 2019 Collection

2 October, 2018 Nelia


While it was raining cats and dogs in gloomy Toronto, Karl Lagerfeld installed a sunny beach complete with sand, waves, and a jorts-wearing lifeguard over at the Grand Palais for the CHANEL Spring 2019 show. Pamela Anderson was spotted dipping her toes in the faux-ocean (fauxcean?), but as far as I know, no silly slow-motion beach running was involved. Pamela wasn’t the only one to go barefoot, models strutted the sandy runway carrying their chic vinyl slides in their hands, decked out in the cutest not-so-beachy looks.

The Spring 2019 collection was one of my faves in a while and had a distinct 90’s feel to it, with touches of vinyl, exaggerated shoulderpads, shrunken cardis, belt bags, and stretchy bike shorts. For those of you obsessed with Coco Beach, there were a few really great swimsuit looks on the runway this season. My only hope is that this summer, Coco Beach is more widely available…and not just in those chic Mediterranean resort towns.

My fave pieces from the collection included the wide-leg jumpsuits, boxy tweed jackets, and floaty beach-umbrella printed dresses. I’d made a looong mental accessory wishlist, that includes the woven logo bag, CC chokers, that amazing straw hat, and everyhing CHA-NEL. It seemed that in both accessories and clothing, Karl was once again intent on splitting up the word CHANEL into two – CHA and NEL. And as someone who is referred to as Nel by my closest friends, I am more than a little obsessed with these pieces, because as silly as it may sound, these CHA-NEL belts, earrings, you name it, feel like they were made pour moi.
