I'm not sure how I feel about Pre-Fall fashion shows. I am of the belief that until Imbolc has passed you have no business thinking about for next fall in such a direct sense. However something about this one begging me to take notice.
Somewhere inside me is a part that adores long haired boys in trench coats.
Perhaps the rest of the world does too.
Perhaps this means that the long haired misanthrope with the trench coat is no longer a cliche. Maybe next year he will listen to Lady Gaga (they call her music "dark pop") and never worry about offending the normals at the next larp. Maybe geek will take another step into the mainstream. . .
What I do know is that Chanel has presented an aesthetic that we have admired for years and taken it to the next level, adding samurai pants and mail inspired shirts in with the classic leather, lace, and gauze.
This made me smile.
