Who wouldn’t want to climb on board a Chanel adorned carousel?Karl Lagerfeld’s models did just that during the Chanel Autumn/Winter show after walking the circular catwalk displaying timeless skirt suits and effortless oversized sweaters. The show was an example of why the fashion house has remained a strong favourite for celebrities and fashion fans alike, across the last two centuries.
Alexander McQueen Autumn/Winter 2006
McQueen made clear to us that fashion is most definitely an art form, as he exhibited his Autumn/Winter 2006 collection which revisited and refined the ‘Highland Rape’ show: his career starter. Immaculate tailoring paired with textures of ruffled feathers and silky chiffon in muted tones made for an eerie atmosphere, heightened by a holograph of a floating Kate Moss enveloped in layers of billowing fabric.

Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell, StephanieSeymour,Christy Turlington, Helena Christensen, Yasmeen Ghauri…Versace’s Autumn/Winter 1991 show was all about ‘The Supermodels’. It was a chance for the girls to have fun as they bounced along the catwalk in bold colours accessorized with tousled locks and super-sexy thigh-high boots, embodying its soundtrack (‘Freedom!’ by George Michael).
Thierry Mugler’s Autumn/Winter 1995
This collection was a celebration of experimentation and the extreme; the show was opened by five dark silhouettes in black latex bodysuits and black platter hats. The exhibition was filled with show-stopping creations including that iconic bare-bottom dress and cyborg style corseting.
