At Chanel, An Instant Message Showdown

anna wintour hair at chanel couture.jpgFaran: So… everyone at Chanel Couture had hair like Anna Wintour? Is this because Wintour and couture rhyme?

Faran: or because Karl wants to suck up?

Natalie: funny - we thought it was very YSL, but yeah, i guess Anna, too.

Faran: also worth noting that very few big girls have showed up. Just Coco and Trentini so far. And then lots of Kim Noorda.

Faran: missing - Stam, Raquel, Aggie…

Natalie: I think you’re right about the big girls missing. Shall i write, or would you like to?

Faran: You think this is more pressing than ANNA WINTOUR HAIR?!

Natalie: hahahahaah

i agree with nat...my first thought was much more "ysl" than "wintour"

Freja was missing because she did the Hope show at Stockholm Fashion Week. Makes sense since she's featured in their ads. Although, I would have loved to see her at Chanel. :(

If you are pronouncing couture correctly in the french manner, it does not rhyme with Wintour.

i'm not very happy with the casting this season. Most of the models don't scream Couture to me. Maryna?? Alyona??? Martha? Catherine? OH NO>..

If ever anyone anywhere in fashion has a bob, does it mean they are channeling Anna? I mean, I know she owns it, but it's a haircut, nothing else about them screamed Wintour.

And where the F is Stam?!

ok so I spoke too soon, when I went back to look, like the first 15 tweed skirts, dresses and jackets are pretty anna I guess. But the bob just ain't right.

I think Gemma's turned to movies, she's got two coming out now. I haven't seen her on a runway in ages, only in the D&G ads. The previews for one of her films looked excellent! I'm so pleased, because we're both Perthies. Putting Perth back on the map!! ;)

I think it's quite comical if it's a tribute to Wintour...but it certainly doesn't seem like something the Lagerfeld would do. Coincedence? Yes I think so.

No no no, if anything, it's a tribute to YSL.

I can't even remember the last time Gemma did couture. She's an actress now and it'll be quite some time (or if ever) before she comes back to modeling.
