Chanel SS17

Okay, to start off, let's look at this dress:

For the life of me, I could not imagine anything else besides the dress from 13 going on 30 crossed with a windows XP screensaver.
it's called "mystify"
The Iconic Dress

















However, the rest of the show I adored. The first third or so was all variations of the classic Chanel suit. This time around, they were updated with oversized jackets and sexy zippers. Texture was the standout element throughout the show.
There were shoulder pads, side ponytails, big frizzy hair, and tilted caps, and solitary huge earrings. As if we didn't already realize it was 80's, the walls of the show were decorated as a data storage center. I think this show was meant to seem nostalgic to viewers. I disagree that it is trying to attract a younger audience by including a computer theme. Most teens right now are still obsessed with the 90's look, and remember the 2000's a little to vividly to be ready to go back.
