A return to the past




I love these Fall 2009 Chanel creations that remind me of Anna Karenina and Lara from Doctor Zhivago. Can't you just imagine Larissa Feodorovna Guishar (that's Lara's maiden name) on the arm of the vile Viktor Komarovsky in this seductive fur trimmed gown? And this understated wool reefer coat could certainly have cloaked the desperate Anna in her final scene at the train station. I wonder if the designer was reading either of these classics when he was dreaming up these fashions. It's just lovely to see a return to classic looks and elegant poses.
