If Virginie was standing next to Karl for 30 years at CHANEL, it is now perfectly clear that she was either in some somnambulistic state, the pin girl or just plain not paying attention as apparently, she learned nothing of the DNA of the most fabled and historically revered fashion house in the world.

If this is her coming out, well then, I say go back in that freakin cave as this is an insult to the brand, to Karl and to Coco. How does one design a collection that is rife with signatures and known for its slick, soigné and timeless elegance come up with a collection that looks like the wardrobe from a low budget fashion horror movie. How does one design a collection that is this clumsy, this heavy handed and ...pardon me ... but who needs to see belly roll on a so-called model? Again, I guess this is the time to reiterate that no matter how long you stand in a garage you will not become a car!

A resort collection that is mostly black ...oh right, GOTH... very Chanel and styling i.e., hair and make-up that looks like do it yourself and shoes paired with fishnets that are inconceivable for a brand of this stature, not to mention the fittings.

This woman needs to take a deep breath and realize she might have signed her exit interview with a pile of rags that looks like this. Okay, okay, don’t get me wrong there were about 6 pieces which were passable and the rest is just trash! This is a collection that Zara, H&M and Forever 21 would pass on !
