While we’re innocently following our daily schedules, Karl Lagerlfed is doing something extraordinary! And one of the last amazing things Karl did, was to light up Paris’ Printemps Christmas 2011 windows. With the ever gorgeous Vanessa Paradis.
You may ask yourselves if der Kaiser didn’t have anything better to do and to light up the store’s Christmas windows, but this is because this year they’re doing a Chanel special. Four windows with special sets illustrate Chanel in Paris, Chanel in Moscow, Chanel in Los Angeles and Chanel in Tokyo. I even found two videos of the animated windows – after the jump you too may admire the magical beauty of Chanel’s Lafayette Christmas 2011 windows! (I loved Los Angeles and Moscow but absolutely adored Paris with those wee Lagerfelds! You can see larger images in the gallery here! photos from here and here)

Yes its really starting to feel like X’mas already. I kind of prefer the Parisien vitrine as well. Vanessa looked great as usual though I wonder if she caught a cold in that outfit outside the store.
Karl Lagerfeld sometimes scares me at how he seems to have stopped aging! He’s either Dorian Grey or he sends out a mechanical wax model that he controls from a secret tower at the Musée Grevin. Sacré Karl!
I like that Dollybird and I think that you are right about Herr Kaiser!
But that Christmas window with all the teeny tiny Kaisers running around does not make me think of Christmas at all, rather some scary twisted Twilight Zone episode where humans are the main course. ; )
Ellington its like episodes of Twilight Zone and The Land of the Giants rolled into one…*shudders*
I forgot to mention how I find it odd the window displays have no toys or clothes or X’mas products to sell which is the main point of window displays methinks. Okay I know Chanel doesn’t need the publicity but….
