Trend Alert: Couture Details
Believe me, if I could afford Diane's divine Chanel Couture dress, I would swoop it up in a heartbeat. Sigh, back to life, back to reality. The good thing is, we don't have to pay a runway price to wear such beautiful couture details.
Celebrity Style: Keira Knightley
Black and white — such an obvious match but oh so powerful. Case in point, Keira Knightley dressed in Chanel Couture at The Young Victoria premiere in London. She proves that sometimes, simple equals special.
Olga Kurylenko in Scaly Chanel Couture: Love It or Hate It?
You can put Ukranian beauty Olga Kurylenko in anything and she'll shine. Or will she? The actress and her costar Daniel Craig continued to promote their flick, Quantum of Solace.
Who Wore It Better? 2006 Chanel Fall Couture LBD
Two fabulous ladies, one gorgeous Chanel couture dress. Can you believe Cate Blanchett first wore this 2006 Chanel Fall couture dress in 2006 at the London premiere of Volver? Socialite Daphne Guinness recently resurrected the same dress and wore it at the Chanel couture collection show.
Spring 2008 Couture: Chanel
Karl has interpreted an arctic freeze and only he could make frigid fashion look so desirable. With an icy palette of gray, black, and white, there was plenty of detailing and tailoring to keep the eyes happy. Some of the sophisticated and ultra-chic ensembles actually made me shiver — this mini-fied black and white suit for one.
Fall 2007 Couture: Chanel
The Chanel couture show may have taken place amidst rainy weather, the front row attendees may have ruined their shoes in the mud, but the clothes were anything but downtrodden. In fact, the bad weather made the stunning designs stand out even more.
The show opened with variations on the classic Chanel suit, with detailing from sequins to leather to feathers, and closed with the bride covered head to toe in a fantastic feathered dress.

As her wedding fast approaches (7.7.07!), Eva Longoria is coming down to the wire on a few of those big bridal decisions - like what she's going to wear.
But the decision has finally been made - sort of. It seems that Eva couldn't really decide: she's wearing Chanel couture for her civil ceremony, and a $75,000 Vera Wang dress embroidered by 20 seamstresses for the church.

We ooh and ahh at haute couture, but we rarely stop to think, how did they create that awe-inspiring piece? Chanel has put together a short behind-the-scenes video, revealing how Look 39 from the Chanel Haute Couture Fall '09 collection was made. It starts with Madame Jacqueline preparing the toile of the jacket after looking at a sketch by Karl Lagerfeld.
2009 Fall Couture: Chanel
As an ode to simple elegance, Karl kept his Chanel Fall couture collection long and lean with sophisticated strapless gowns, classic suiting, and highly embellished frocks. The designer's play on peek-a-boo with an abundance of mesh, lace tights, and high/low hemlines shows off legs in a slightly naughty manner. Sequins and beading also made an appearance in the form of glittering dresses, which were reminiscent of the '80s and '90s.
2009 Spring Couture: Chanel
Karl was on a strict diet of black, white, and paper when designing Spring couture. I'm predicting white is about to be the color du jour, thanks to Michelle Obama's dreamy Jason Wu gown. As always, Karl was psychic.
