Paris-Moscow

So as luck would have it we both had managed to escape the heat at the same time and go over seas to-Moscow and Paris.. Looks like Karl Lagerfeld had the same idea we had, since he called his Pre-Fall 2009 collection Paris-Moscow. Lagerfeld drew his inspiration from the Coco Chanel fascination with everything Russian, from her enormous babushkas collection, to the clothes and even the men (rumor has it that Coco had a secret love affair with Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich). In his collection Karl combined elements from each individual culture, exactly what we are going to do with all our purchases.
