After seeing a few shots from Chanel Cruise 2010, I couldn’t resist sharing some of the highlights with all of you PurseBloggers out there. This has to be one of the most strikingly beautiful runway shows I’ve ever seen, from the Venice Lido boardwalk setting to the 1920s throwback clothes. Karl Lagerfeld said that he chose this particular setting to debut this collection because Coco Chanel was a long-time fan of this particular Italian beach. Coco made yearly visits to this beach during the 1920s, making it particularly appropriate for this set of retro-glam resort wear and beautiful evening dresses. The boardwalk is only steps from the sea, the show began at sunset, and I’ve never found myself wanting to attend any fashion show so much in my entire life.
OMG! The eye makeup on those models looks like they stuck their eyes in one of those trick kaleidoscopes with the black shoe polish in the lens!!! I had to look three times before I saw the dresses! :-0
Totally in agreement. Really like the setting and the clothes though. But the models! Well they definitely caused an impression! Phew! It took a while before I realized the lovely designs
slim, classic, lacey, very parisienne chic; as always. love love love.
I do love Karl’s vision when it comes to design. I love that the fashion show was also on a boardwalk by the sea. He is pure genius! Great post, thanks for sharing.
I LOVE IT!~
Love it!
classic, evocative and just amazing.
Very vintage glam. Not completely mind-blowing, but very classic.
Thanks for this post, Amanda! The boardwalk is the perfect setting for this unique collection. The pictures prove that Chanel will always be timeless and classic! Definitely a brand that will always be worth the price 🙂
Looks and sounds like it was a beautiful and classic show. Very “Chanel!!”

Classic. The eye make up is very heavy, but it contrasts nicely with the slimming and unique dresses. Chanel is timeless, and this line proves it.
The Chanel cruise 2009 collection is so amazing.
