Westerdays Fashion show, Aalborg..
 Theme: Unusual

Extract from the Chanel Spring / Summer show report:


“DOWN the stairs into the Grand Palais, we found ourselves wandering in a bleached white sea bed with giant shells, sea horses and sea weed climbing up towards the huge, glimmering shower curtain that contained it all. Karl Lagerfeld once again surpassed himself with the set – money as ever no object in his quest for newness and perfection.(…)

Handheld, pearl encrusted sea shells made for clutch bags that will surely be next season’s most desired status symbols, and silver leather ones were creased in every direction from the centre – twinkling like the sun had just caught the crest of a wave.

Flat soled metallic silver booties, pearl belts and little bags dripping with silken seaweed coils accessorised these sea nymphets, and colour bled in by way of pink and black blurred coral bed prints. One dress rippled with black-edged, pink printed chiffon scales, another had puffed black lace sleeves and fell in tiers of pale sequins, its top half overlaid in translucent chiffon to camouflage it just slightly from a predator’s gaze.”

Trousers from Gina Tricot, the shirt and blouse is vintage

The bag is from Spain, the watch  is found on a flea market in Sweeden, the gloves and the armrings are from a chain of shops called “Tiger”, necklace from H&M; and the sunglasses are vintage.
