Chanel Catwalk Complete

The complete Chanel collections from Karl Lagerfeld to Virginie Viard. This fundamentally updated and significantly expanded edition provides a comprehensive overview of Chanel's designs from Karl Lagerfeld's appointment as head designer to the first collections of his successor, Virginie Viard. When the fashion designer Lagerfeld joined Chanel as artistic director in 1983, he revolutionized the designs of the storied haute couture house, which were considered outdated and boring. His imaginative designs were an instant success, allowing the label to shine anew. Lagerfeld's fashion shows became some of the most sought-after events for international celebrities. Chanel Catwalk gathers all of Lagerfeld's collections for Chanel in chronological order, enabling a detailed exploration of the house's development under Karl Lagerfeld's leadership through carefully curated runway photos. Especially early Lagerfeld designs have never been seen in such abundance - a unique opportunity for fashion experts and fans. In addition, the spectacular settings of Lagerfeld's shows can be admired, along with the lineup of supermodels who regularly walked for him. Runway photos feature Claudia Schiffer, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, and Stella Tennant, as well as Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne, and Kendall Jenner. Fully revised and expanded, this edition with a luxurious linen cover, silver embossing, and four ribbon bookmarks is a must-have for all fashion lovers and Chanel fans.
