He also did his usual spin on the classic Chanel matching twin set - this time lengthening the skirt, cropping the sleeves and adding some new details - but basically the same as usual.
The highlights of the show were undoubtedly the huge fur pieces - some worn by Baptiste Giabiconi, as he walked on the created iceberg catwalk dressed up like a huge bear with a human head.
The knitwear from the collection is also worthy of note but has probably been overlooked thanks to the extravagant fur pieces. The knitwear was innovative, with again a bulky feel - huge funnel style scarves which were ridged on the models necks and giant capes/ponchos in dirty grey which were teamed with matching patchwork skirts.
This was a really outstanding collection and although some of the pieces will be quite impossible to wear when these pieces hit the shelves, it was a completely exquisite collection which showed Karl Lagerfeld’s staggering ability to design, as well as the scope of his imagination.
