Couture-OUT

This is one of a series of reviews related to all the couture shows that have been going on this season. I thought best to start when it all ended, the begining of the end?
I'll start off with Chanel and work my way out...

Chanel Fall 2009 Couture
Alot of the starter peices included a pair of fabulous floral-lacish stalkings, that worked perfectly with suit/skirt peices, except for this particular coat, it looks a bit awkward.
Nevertheless, the length of the coat is just right, it does not however work with the stockings. Great peices, weird combo.
An excellent example of the stockings being incorporated into the outfit is in this peice:
The show explored different themes, such as the above business woman/working girl routine, a bit of old Hollywood glamour in one of my favourite peices in this show:

Not to mention some Audrey Hepburn action in this one:
There is an important issue I need to address with this show, and its the total FAIL trails in several peices. For example:

The trail is completely awkward and out of place, its just...attached. THATS a total fail. Sorry Karl.

However some A+ work is here:
The backdrop is just perfect, and the look is extremely polished and complete. My second favourite peice in this show, LOVE IT.
Further excellance in this peice of work, I cant wait to see it on the red carpet :)
Another red carpet worthy peice of work in this one:

Besides this, there are lots of floral action happening, which also includes some trail action:

The show concluded with a vegas weddingesuqe couple which reminded me of prom... Does the model give off a pregnant vibe, or is it just me thinking babies?
