Where could you wear ....

[DeeSki]

... gear like this? Just what we’ve all been waiting for: Coco Neige, Chanel’s new collection, described as “A line devoted to winter sports.” Now, I enjoy fashion and I could definitely rock a little tweed jacket for my urban existence but this stuff is just ridiculous. I’m not even convinced these clothes would be any good for watching winter sports. Anyway, if you need a new pair of mittens, Chanel have some starting at prices over €1000.

Switzerland or Colorado? No idea. The pants look like they'd be a bit
sweaty.

The sweater looks like it wouldn’t be very waterproof. The whole lot of it is silly. I think if they’d said they were inspired by winter sports it wouldn’t have bothered me but devotion suggests a keen interest.

Lol, it looks like plastic, here in the East on some days it would freeze and shatter in a million pieces!

 

[newboots]

The whole outfit looks ridiculous. Definitely not sports clothing!

Some kind of idiotic apres?

 

[DeeSki]

LOL @newboots ! Idiotic apres is the term! This is what bothers me about it. It’s clearly unsuitable for skiing but it looks too warm for indoors. Even if your idea of outdoors means sitting on a terrace in Aspen or St. Moritz drinking champagne, would you not be better off in some hideous ensemble from Bogner which would at least protect you if you were exposed to a few snowflakes or a mountain breeze? I guess the mittens would keep your hands warm for the short walk from your car to your private jet.

There are mittens?

Here in Vermont, I'd call that the "I'm Not From Around Here" look.

LOL - maybe she's carrying them?

I've been focusing on her foot - looks to me like she's wearing an open-toed slide . . .

I noticed that too, but I thought maybe is a toe cap.

I've seen some very expensive, designer suits at Whistler. Practical? No!

 

[DeeSki]

I think it is a toe cap. Not sure what the rest of the shoe is made of though....

Thanks for the link. Now I can see the mittens.

Also noticed the prices on the matching bags. I think I'll stick to buying skis instead, or better yet planning more ski trips to big mountains.

Why don’t high-end designers ask real women what they want in ski wear? This outfit is a dorkey, overpriced cliche. No actual skier would wear this for actual skiing.

 

[Jenny]

Good Lord - the price of that whole look is $18,400.

Rich people be crazy.

 

[badger]

I suppose you could wear those garments anywhere that your conscience allows.

Clearly she is wearing the boot from her injured ankle. @Jenny , you should recognize that!

 

[newboots]

Glad you posted the link. Browse the site; there are no more than two outfits I wouldn’t be caught dead in. Maybe Halloween.

Doesn’t seem bulky enough, so I was thrown off!
