Karl Lagerfeld: Chanel's Russian Connection [With CDROM]
No Customer Reviews
Peripatetic Chanel head designer, book publisher, photographer--and now, film director--Karl Lagerfeld founded M tiers d'Arts in 2002 to showcase the talents of Chanel's seven specialist ateliers (that provide the couture house with costume jewelry, embroidery and millinery). This volume focuses on Chanel's 2008-2009 M tiers d'Arts collection Paris-Moscow . If Paris-Moscow indulges Lagerfeld's fascination for Russia through fashion, then Russian Connection is that fascination embodied in book form. Lagerfeld's images evoke Imperial Russia, Constructivism, Catherine the Great, Faberg , Russian folklore and Coco Chanel's own passion for Russia, via the great Ballets Russes, Byzantine jewelry and her affair with the Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich. Included here is a DVD featuring Lagerfeld's directorial debut, Coco 1913/Chanel 1923 , a silent black-and-white film depicting Chanel's flirtation with Russian-Parisian migr society in the 1910s and 1920s.
