Karl Lagerfeld is pitching a lifetime publicity perfect game, and when that comes to his position atop Chanel, that means periodically wrangling fashion celebs, chic indie actresses and some miscellaneous French girls to show up at parties decked in the brand’s wares. On Monday night in New York City, one such occasion came to pass; there were, of course, a bunch of handbags.
Ostensibly, the focus of this party was Baz Luhrmann’s new short film for the brand, starring (noted actress?) Gisele Bundchen. The actual purpose of any Chanel party, though, is to remind everyone how fabulous it must be to attend a Chanel party, so mission: accomplished. Check out who attended (and with which bags) below.
There’s one very interesting bag from the party that our photo agency didn’t snag a picture of, though: an everything bagel with cream cheese, in handbag form, on the arm of actress India Menuez. We’ve never seen anything like it at previews or Chanel shows, and if you want to check it out, Racked has the photos.

Does the meat tray packaging come off???
I remember a whole discussion about this on Instagram. From what I gathered, the meatpacking tray comes off.
Ok, the meat tray is just…dumb…

The bag color seems to give it the appearance of raw meat in a tray. But overall, it’s just silly for such a fancy bag.
Love Lily Allen. I hope that silly meat tray thing is removable.
Saw the bag in store. It is removable 😀
Gigi Hadid is simply gorgeous
Actually, the bagel bag wasn’t really chanel! They updated the article (scroll to the bottom), and it says:
“Update: Mystery solved! New York-based artist Chloe Wise has cleared up the bagel bag thing:
My bagel sculpture : Bagel no.5. Urethane and oil paint with found hardware. Not by @chanel but stoked I fooled yall”
They should definitely consider making it though–it’s great.
Loved the absence of all things Kardashian.
$$$ clearly can’t buy them class OR an invite.
Can I like this 10X?
love palestinian-american gigi’s palestine scarf themed jacket
I actually like the Boy bag Harley Viera-Newton carried. I’d use it as a clubbing bag.
OMG am I the only one who loves the meat tray? It’s fascinating.
