One of
the most polemic and unexpected catwalks took place last 30th of september in
Paris on the hands of Karl Lagerfeld. Head designer and creative director of
the fashion house Chanel, as well as the Italian house Fendi and his
own label fashion house.
On the
presentation of the spring/summer collection 2015 on Paris Fashion Week, an
unusual show took place. Karl transformed the insides of The Grand Palais into
a urban city landscape, decorated with grey buildings with old style balconies,
a street with an uneven pavement, real sidewalks and puddles.
The show
started normally. Models walked alone or by partners, wearing pieces of
different shapes and colours and from dresses, to the typical Chanel suits. All
of them wearing flat-shoes and simple accessories. Models from all over the
world. A huge variety of nationalities and beauties. Cara Delevingne, Giselle
Bünchen and the young Kendall Jenner are some of the famous models that
participated in this amazing show.
When all
the pieces of the collection had been shown, from the far, a large crowd
appeared. Leaded by Karl and his right hand Cara Delevingne by his side with
a megaphone, and a large crowd of models following them. All of them holding banners with feminist slogans written on them and saying loudly and in unison: “What do
we want? Free! When do we want it? Now!”.
A call
for the rights of women and for the right to be different and stand out. Karl Lagerfeld once again, transformed his catwalk on a show full of glamour and a demonstration claiming the rights and equality of women to men nowadays. A real
revolutionary in the eyes of fashion and society.
