chanel couture show — Style

While Winter Storm Juno pounded locations from Long Island to New England with moderate to heavy snow, high winds, and coastal flooding for much of Tuesday morning, attendees at Chanel’s Spring 2015 Couture show in Paris were transported to a lush, tropical garden party.

According to Style.com, it took six months to make the 300 flowers that decorated the Chanel set. Dresses, skirts, and beanies adorned with silk flower appliqués floated down the runway. Let’s not forget these clothes are produced by hand – les petites mains, as the atelier workers are known at couture – and take hundreds of hours to produce.

Perfection.
