Her Spring/Summer collection is said to question the expectations placed upon the woman, both by herself and by society. With an unconventional silhouette that adds bulge to the waistline, it definitely got us talking about her creations.

Loewe on the other hand, welcomes spring with enormous two-toned feathered earrings, a step up from the feathered statement earrings we have been wearing all season.

Summer is the time for us to go to the beach. This is not the first time that Karl Lagerfeld has built such a unique set for his runway shows (he had created a supermarket previously for Chanel’s FW14/15), but this definitely takes the cake. Models clutched their shoes while walking barefooted on a sandy beach complete with soft waves. Looks like we are wearing Chanel to the beach next summer.
