Giant Chanel beach bag in hula hoops (Spring Summer 2013)

During Chanel’s Spring Summer 2013 show on 2^nd October in Paris’s Grand Palais, the design genius, Karl Lagerfeld sent Sigrid Agren down the runway wearing a giant white quilted leather beach bag, balanced between two black hula hoops in a semi circle. This bag was definitely a highlight of the collection.

"It's for the beach" Lagerfeld explained after the show in the Grand Palais. "You need space for the beach towel, huh? And then you can put it into the sand and hang things on it." 

Only Karl could think and create something so dreamy and exaggerated thus making a statement of its own.  One can either love it or leave it but can’t ignore it.
