Karl Lagerfeld has given life to one of our most recurring fantasies, a day of unabashed shopping at Chanel.  The designer directed a short film called Shopping Fever, with Dree Hemingway, Baptiste Giabiconi and Abbey Lee.  A room filled with shopping bags with the Chanel logo is a dream for many women; and a shopping spree like that would have to stem from a fever as the title suggested.  Even so, leave it to Karl to know what women want.

Karl Lagerfeld has directed a new short film starring Edita Vilkeviciute as a young Coco Chanel.  The backdrop of the film is Shanghai; a bit of an homage to Chanel’s Pre-Fall 2010 collection aptly named Paris-Shanghai.  In keeping with the name, the collection took its inspiration from the city in China with beautiful coats, embellished dresses and accessories.  Most notable among the accessories are the hats which are authentic in shape and embellished with beadings and other appliques.  Paris-Shanghai made our Rollcall list this week.  The presentation is 22-minutes in length, watch and enjoy.
