Karl never fails to do it big, the passion he puts behind his collections are undeniable.  On March 9, 2010 in Paris he showed his Chanel Fall/Winter Collection to the World.  Tromping down the runway in ice block heels the models were decked out in fur, thankfully for those who are against real fur, it was all faux.  

The chunks of iceberg that were present were transported all the way from Scandinavia for the event.  Karl's collection was original as always, trying things most would shy away from.  That being full length fur pants, and trims no one but the master could pull off.

His remix on tweed and fur was crazy, not many combine so many unlike textures and have a great outfit.  Model Patricia van der Vilet, from ELITE, was one of the models rocking this unusual combination.  Other models were swimming in gorgeous chunky knits, and the men were sloshing through the snow-scape in nothing but fur suits.  Never thought a mainly achromatic color scheme could be so intriguing.  All the white tights seen on the runways; possible new trend?  I think so.
