Chanel presented new collection in Saint Tropez

Karl Lagerfeld presented in St. Tropez his new "cruise" collection for Chanel on a fashion show yesterday, to a crowd including Vanessa Paradis, Anna Mouglalis, Diane Kruger, Georgia May Jagger, Leigh Lezark and Andre Leon Talley.

This time the legendary fashion brand, known for its elegant and classic clothes, surprised everyone with an atypical collection for 2010-2011. The models were casual, designed for the lovers of hot days and sea cruises.

Karl Lagerfeld sent his models out in light, warm ensembles – fishnet dresses, tight mini shorts, combined with short jackets, and all this was in the warm, pastel colors of the summer. Accessories include bracelets and necklaces of beads and amber, as well as the traditional Chanel bags. The models were wearing light and "gladiator" sandals.
