The house is so lovely and gorgeous, in fact, that Karl Lagerfeld apparently isn’t satisfied with just one, and so had its façade recreated inside the Grand Palais as the set for the glorious Chanel show he presented on Friday morning. This was Lagerfeld at his savvy best, on one hand lavishing the clothes with ample decoration as if heralding that tough times aside, his ladies have nothing to worry about. And he still infused the lineup with youthful charm, pinned largely on liberal doses of pink. Suits came in every conceivable variation: with jackets long and lean, full and swingy or cropped into tiny boleros. Dresses ranged from a classic shift to short, saucy knit numbers, and Lagerfeld gave a nod or two to the sportswear set with racy black pants looks.
