Absolutely loved this collection. Where the boots went thigh high and the dresses with long torsos and a mini skirts…

Unforgettable.

Chanel Couture Spring 2010

Wonderful Chanel suits. They look comfortable and elegant. Long shorts instead of the traditional skirt.

They look great on the models, not sure how they look on regular people–probably not as good.

They come in many different colors/materials and varieties of jacket styles and collars.

In the midst of shorts, a skirt paired with a matching jacket:

This look stands out since it’s dark salmon, almost red. Karl’s latest designs are all in pastels and varying shades of silver.

Light pinks and violets. Here is a beautiful floral lace jacket.

I was not impressed with the rest of the collection. Seemed more like filler. Although the overarching theme seemed eggy:

Maybe I’m not used to the silhouette yet.

Seemed like an Easter egg hunt especially since everything was pastel.

The other gowns reminded me of Faberge eggs. Not because they were egg shaped, but they had decadent over-luxurious decals that seemed to weigh the entire look down.

The soft and light satin cloth was heavily weighed down by the metallic decor. There was not a balance, the hard metallic seemed heavier next to the light and flowy satin.

Greco roman draping was found in nearly every collection this year.
