we didn't want to muse on the chanel's paris-moscou collection but the lookbook of the pieces shot by karl lagerfeld himself and starring sensational sasha pivovarova (who got the cover of a zero issue of dazed&confused russia) is something to look for. the images capture this wicked sense of reinterpretations of russian history by western europeans, cultivating a myth and creating confusion instead of celebrating the history. whether it's a good thing or bad, one doesn't know. and it really doesn't matter that much. sometimes it's all about beautiful pictures to look for.
fakefur/ous is back on track. later.
