CHANEL Spring 2011: Paris Fashion Week

Karl Lagerfeld's extensive CHANEL runway, nestled within the not too shabby Grand Palais, featured over 80 gorgeous looks ranging from gauzy dresses covered in huge kaleidoscopic flowers, distressed wool tweed suits covered in fashionable moth holes and frayed edges, a divine slew of feathery black cocktail dresses, and one spectacular French appearance by quintessentially chic former CHANEL model Ines De La Fressange. This collection is incredible and most of the looks are stunning, except for the SHOES. Those ugly, unattractive flat-bottomed platform sandals almost ruin every look, and make even stick-thin models look fat! What on earth would Coco say???

Fendi Spring 2011

In the flurry of RedPoppy's Fashion Week coverage spanning four countries in what felt like a single week, Karl Lagerfeld's divine Spring collection for Fendi was sorely missed. Feminine, colorful, airy, and so very freshly Spring, the collection is absolutely beautiful. And the handbags and clutches are so solidly bold and fab, it reminds me of the label's ubiquitous Baguette craze of seasons past. I'll pretty much take one of each!...
