chanel paris shanghai

"there's no chanel collection without black. (it) will never exist. who can live without some black clothes."
- karl lagerfeld






chanel's 5,160 square foot shanghai store opened last thursday at the peninsula on the bund. according to architect peter marino, the space was inspired by mademoiselle chanel's rue cambon apartment and furnished with hand-picked art and antiques - "the result is comfort, quiet elegance, timelessness. the chic of chanel." products exclusive to the store were created especially to celebrate its opening. these included a classic quilted handbag embossed with "shanghai karl lagerfeld" on the inside flap, sling-back heels with a metallic cc logo and several rtw styles (look out for the tweed jacket and skirt with gold trim!!). waiting for the celeb pics....
