Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel likes his men wild and women fury. The menswear catwalk costumes have even been used in his advertising campaign. Attention grabbing, yes. I'll leave it up to you if you think they're purely a media stunt or actually wearable. The womens collection has all the characteristics of a Chanel show, bulked up and taken to the extremes. My mother used to own a similar pair of these boot, but the short version. You can imagine how much I laughed when I was 14 years old, discovering them. The charity shop will have the last laugh.
My choice, however, is Lanvin Fall 2010. Thanks to Alber Elbaz, the proportions, structure and embellishment made me want to share this collection. The dress I've chosen isn't even the best (so many great pieces to choose from!) but has all the elements that made this show great. The fury shoes are more refined than at Chanel. Just imagine them with skinny jeans also. The dress shows off a svelt figure, contrasted by the large shoulders, topped off with feather detail. Winter gets sexy.
