Chanel S/S2014 ivory cotton bow embellished maxi dress

This Chanel S/S2014 maxi dress showed up to Karl Lagerfeld’s loudest party in years wearing ivory and a serious number of bows. For Spring/Summer 2014 he turned the Grand Palais into an art gallery and sent out prints in more than 150 colors. Ivory, in a show about paint. Up top it’s a fitted knit with tank straps, and from the hip down it turns into a sheer gathered skirt. Tiny bows cover the whole thing. Ivory at this length usually gets filed under bridal. Saving it for one day would be a crime. It wants a warm summer night, a long table and at least one person asking where it’s from. Or come to Luxeparel and we’ll give you the full say yes to the dress moment: the zip, the mirror, the dramatic pause. Tears optional.
