Chanel goes to Luna Park
Historic fun fair Luna Park is hardly the destination for high fashion but for one day dagwood dogs and fairy floss were hidden out of sight as Chanel’s chic Australian clientele gathered to watch the autumn/winter 2008/09 collection.
The carousel theme launched at the ready-to-wear collections in Paris was carried through to a gorgeous set in Sydney as the crowded room formed mental shopping lists of cool coats, slim jackets and two-tone tights.
Vogue.com.au were there to exclusively film the presentation, which added some much needed French flair to the local fashion scene. In the words of Vogue Australia editor in chief Kirstie Clements: “Thank God for Chanel.”
