Chanel Pre-Fall 2009
A silver gilt thread coat from Emperor Peter II's wardrobe Did Mr. Lagerfeld take a sneak peek at Victoria and Albert's exhibition the "Magnificence of the Tsars" opening tomorrow? Maybe...or maybe we are just going through a Russian invasion in the world of style.
"Magnificence of the Tsars" will feature more than 40 superb ensembles from the collections of the Moscow Kremlin Museums, Russia's oldest national Treasury.
It is a display of unimaginable opulence, from pearls smothering the cuffs of a costume ball outfit to the extravagant heraldic tunics, one that is even more interesting when viewed through the prism of a tragic ending.
