Where Chanel goes, we follow. With The Reality Show No 3 we were spoiled by couture. But when we board our yachts and its just not practical to be swathed in sequins and hand embroidered gear, we opt for cruise.
Venice, Saint-Tropez, Cap d’Antibes and the palace of Versailles last season, Chanel chose the subtropical land of Singapore for the location of the 2013-14 cruise presentation. Shining bright right on the equator, the presentation featured a variety of resort looks, ranging from slouch trousers paired with drop shoulder knits and sporty ”cricket player“ looks for the day scene, to the feminine tweed ensembles and glamorous night gowns adorned with Lesage embroideries for evenings.
The key to the complete Chanel look-and to our lives in general- can’t go without accessories, such as the nude beige pumps with the heels embossed to resemble the texture of woven basket or threefold necklaces with irregular forms and colors of pearls.
Bag snobs will be obsessed with the straw-material or gold version of Boy Chanel, the new icon bag that first came out in 2011.
If you aim to be the queen of resort, you can’t miss the super exclusive piece-an acrylic bag modeled after the signature fragrance bottle.
This is all just a friendly reminder that cruise will hit the stores in November. Here are some photos from the recent resort exhibition in Tokyo, along with some of Karl’s photos from the lookbook printed on beautiful metallic paper.
Mademoiselle Yulia #TRSNo1&No3Star, finished with Harajuku?! Nah, Whatever Harajuku is just the title of her new album- look at all of these pretty pictures from the jacket. The blue haired singer/DJ/Giza founder and street fashion scenestress has been all over the street snap sites lately. She looked especially ghetto fabulous in the Nasir Mazhar SS 14 presentation the other day in London. Oh yeah, she also just did a collabo with our beloved KTZ that’s lookin’ pretty good-they are launching a pop up shop in Tokyo too by the way. If you are in the neighborhood Yulia is hosting the KTZ POP-UP SHOP X KTZ x GIZA X WHEREVER HARAJUKU TOUR launch extravaganza at Tokyo’s Le Baron September 22. Congratulations to our Harajuku Cleopatra.
We had such a great time doing Whatever Harajuku creative direction and styling! PS, check out the video for the first single Harajuku Wander starring all of our favorite Harajuku kids at DOG, Gr8, and more!
News flash from Tokyo street fashion ground zero Shibuya: Sister just got a facelift. Not that this fashionable boutique needed to change anything- the selection of young designers like Julien David, Charlotte Olympia, Taro Horiuchi, Sachio Kawasaki and many more, and the super cute shop girls have always kept us very engaged.
The queen of the cuties is #TRSNo1Star Fuyuri. She gave us a little tour of the new third floor that houses vintage books and a vintage Chanel pop up, a tres bougie Yasmine Eslami lingerie corner, and a new eyewear line “L’cole de Soeurs Cinq” designed by Fuyuri herself, she even drew those illustrations of the shop girls. Oh la la and a meow, to those cat eyes!
Fuyuri and some of the other girls-Ai, Mina, and Yumiko- give us some straight ups in their fave parts of the new and improved Sister.

Bejewelled is always better in our book. If you ever felt you had a zing for creating bling then now is the time.
Edgard Hamon has launched prestigious prizes to support young jewelry designers- one to young accessory designers under 30 with work experience in France, and the other to a graduate from a European fashion school in 2013. The nearly 100 year old French house is one of the most authentic fashion jewelers today, creating hand made accessories for the biggest couture houses and designers. And get this- the haute class jury for the competition is composed of Christian Lacroix, Elie Top (jewelry designer of #TRSNo2 brand Lanvin), and legendary former French Vogue editor and now jewelry stylist Franceline Prat among others.
THE REALITY SHOW loves supporting up and coming talents, especially when they create big bold pieces of jewelry in silver like I usually wear. Send in your application now! The jury reviews applications at the Musée Des Art Décoratif of Paris in March 2014 and gather again in June 2014 for the award ceremony.
