Karl Lagerfeld - Lagerfeld Karl; Steidl Gerhard
Chanel's Russian Connection
KORTE INHOUD
Russian Connection is Karl Lagerfelds exploration of all things Russian. The book presents photos by Lagerfeld centred around Paris-Moscou, his 2008/9 M?tiers dArts collection for Chanel, showcasing the fastidious workmanship of the Parisian ateliers that provide couture houses with decorative specialities such as artificial flowers, embroidery, feathers, costume jewellery, shoes and millinery. If Paris-Moscou indulges Lagerfelds fascination for Russia through fashion, then Russian Connection is that fascination embodied in book form. His vision is panoptic from Imperial Russia to Constructivism, from Catherine the Great to Faberg?, from Russian folklore to Coco Chanels own passion for Russia including the Ballets Russes, Byzantine jewellery and her affair with the Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich. The book combines Lagerfelds photographs from the accessoirisation and preparation for Paris-Moscou in Coco Chanels apartment in the rue Cambon, with film stills from Coco 1913 Chanel 1923, a silent black-and-white film...
