Chanel haute couture casino 2019

Chanel has taken its fashion show audiences to a spoof supermarket, a pop-up brasserie as well as a faux street protest to present its clothes. On Tuesday, the glamorous design house took them gambling at a makeshift casino.

The luxury label hosted its autumn-winter 2015/16 haute couture collection amid roulette and cards tables, manned by smartly dressed dealers, as well as slot machines, where models and Hollywood celebrities had a role.

Actresses Julianne Moore and Kristen Stewart as well as pop singer Rita Ora took their seats at the central roulette table to open the show as glamorous gamblers -- all wearing Chanel outfits and jewelry -- and making bets.

The creative force behind one of the world's most recognizable designer labels, Karl Lagerfeld, is known for putting on lavish fashion shows, traditionally at Paris' prestigious Grand Palais.

Models, all sporting a short black bob hairstyle, strutted around the celebrities in quilt-like jackets and skirts, for which a new laser technique to bind different materials is said to have been used.

Glitz and glamor prevailed for evening wear in shimmering and bead-encrusted gowns, layered cocktail dresses and a black evening coat with flower petal-like cutouts.

American television reality star Kendall Jenner closed the show as the Chanel bride, wearing a white double-breasted trouser suit with a long veil training from her shoulders.

'Fashion is not needed, there are other problems in the world which may be more important ... but it's an industry,' German-born Lagerfeld said.

'Fashion needs to go with time, if fashion didn't go with time, fashion would be lost.'

Paris' Haute Couture fashion week runs until Thursday.

We’ve written about fashion designers using 3D printing extensively, but now 3D printing is getting a major nod from a fashion design icon. Karl Lagerfeld used 3D printing in this season’s classic Chanel suit, which looks eminently wearable and very chic. Of course, in haute couture, the initial 3D printed item was then hand embroidered and embellished into the beautiful suits we see but the underlying foundation is 3D printed.

Reviews

The collection was unveiled earlier this month in Paris Fashion Week in a casino setting featuring actresses as well as models. In an accompanying interview, Lagerfeld extolled the virtues of 3D printing in which no seams are necessary and the classic Chanel suit form of square shoulders and boxy jacket can easily be molded in one piece. Lagerfeld stated that 3D printing “widens haute couture” and predicted it will be used more and more in fashion. He also said that fashion designers should keep up to date on relevant technologies, like 3D printing, or become irrelevant. Coming from someone who has managed to stay relevant into his (rumored) 80s, that’s a strong endorsement. Lagerfeld did hasten to add that the final garments are Haute Couture with significant hand work and embroidery done post printing. Since he was vague in his comments there is speculation that both the tweed like suits, as above, and the quilted like suits, as below have a 3D printed foundations or grids, using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), as their base. It is unclear how much of the entire collection of suits (part of it up top) incorporates 3D printing.

Other fashion designers have used 3D printing in fashion, first and foremost among them is Iris van Herpen (see very bottom pic of her design named one of 2011 50 Best Inventions by Time Magazine). Her creations have a futuristic look and unlike the Chanel suit may seem uncomfortable to wear.

Israeli fashion designer Noa Raviv used 3D printing as scaffolding for her fantastic creations in the Hard Copy collection (2 examples above), which is her graduation project from Shenkar Academy. Francis Bitonti and Michael Schmidt designed a form-hugging dress for Burlesque actress Dita von Teese (below). The dress is fully articulated with moving joints for most of its length. It was designed and 3D printed to Dita’s specific measurements.

Icon Karl Lagerfeld embraced 3D printing; innovative Iris van Herpen is a veteran at 3D printing; young fashion designers like Noa Raviv as well as established ones like Michael Schmidt and Francis Bitonti are using it in their final garments. Are you?
