Almost six decades have passed since the creation of the black tweed jacket by Coco Chanel, and what could be better than a book of photographs curated by Karl Lagergeld and Carine Roitfeld?
Well, the Little Black Jacket exhibition at Saatchi Gallery, London that came all the way from Hong Kong.
113 influential people, friends of the House of Chanel, nspirational for Lagerfeld himself, were photographed styling in their own personal way the iconic tweed jacket.
Anna Wintour
Carine Roitfeld
Clémence Poésy
Hudson Kroenig and Theodora Richards
Kanye West
Alice Dellal
Daphne Guinness
Alexa Chung
Tilda Swinton
Freja Beha Erichsen
After strolling through the impecable B&W pictures, I got to keep a piece of the exhibition; a poster featuring Georgia May Jagger.
Any fashion lover that respects him/herself and is currently in London should go and take a look. At Saatchi till the 4th of November.
