Dressed To Cruise: Chanel Unveils Its Latest Collection On The Riviera
May 12 2010, Published 9:22 a.m. ET
Diane Kruger and Vanessa Paradis were sitting front row as Chanel unveiled its 2011 Cruise Collection in Saint-Tropez on Tuesday, during an exclusive presentation, which took place harbor side in the posh resort town. A day before the opening of the Cannes Film Festival, Karl Lagerfeld sent his model muses, including Karolina Kurkova and 17-year-old rock royalty Georgia May Jagger, down the runway wearing the gorgeous hippie-chic meets boho-glam collection of kaftans, bell-bottoms and metallic swimwear.
The super sultry Jagger sauntered down the catwalk in high-waisted, burnt-orange bell-bottoms paired with a gold bikini top, a cropped tweed jacket and oodles of accessories, while Natasha Poly looked ethereal in a gorgeous chiffon, pastel-printed kaftan.
Rich in earth tones, the collection featured a lot of browns, tans and oranges mixed with glam gold accents, as well as demure pastels and vintage-looking gingham plaids, resulting in a very retro, Haight-Ashbury vibe.
