KRISTEN STEWART IGNORES RED CARPET RULES

Leave it to Kristen Stewart – and Chanel – to make a conservative style look racy. Kristen’s frock for the red carpet closing of the Berlin Film Festival has a high collar, long sleeves and it’s ankle length with buttons down the front. No slits, no scoops and no glitz – except for the shiny buttons. The dress just happens to be see-through, and Kristen only wore high black panties underneath. You can see almost all of her tattoos. None of those predictable slinky gowns for Kristen – remember, she wore hot pants to the Oscars a few years back…

MARGARET QUALLEY KNOWS WHAT GIRLS WANT: CHANEL HANDBAGS

Margret Qualley, 27, is determined to have a career like her mother Andie MacDowell’s, and she’s well on her way. She started as a model and we met her two years ago when she did a photoshoot for W Magazine at our house with Quentin Tarantino. They were promoting Once Upon a Time in Hollywood for The Director’s Issue. (right before Covid) Margaret was adorable and fun. Recently we’ve been hooked, watching her in the Netflix series Maids, a very real story about a young mother with a terrible life. In the real world her life is CONSIDERABLY better – among other things, she is now Brand Ambassador for Chanel- hence the nude-with-Chanel-handbags photo.

VANESSA PARADIS: DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR SMILE!

It’s time for Vanessa Paradis to get a grip. Those gap teeth are not doing her any favors. After a certain age, gap teeth can look more “homeless” than cute. Surely Vanessa has noticed that when she appears in Chanel ads, she is never asked to smile! Vanessa’s gap is much wider than Madonna’s and Madonna stopped smiling YEARS AGO! (Check her Instagram!) Hopefully cosmetic dentistry is on Vanessa’s to-do list by NOW…

ANNA WINTOUR AND CARDI B: LANGUAGE BARRIER AT CHANEL SHOW?

Anna Wintour has learned that in her line of work, it’s better not to criticize ANYONE because you never know who you’ll end up sitting next to at a Chanel show. Actually, Anna LIKES Cardi B’s style – she was quite impressed by Cardi’s extravagant Thom Browne gown at the Met Gala this year. However, we would give anything to be a fly on the wall and eavesdrop on Vogue editor Anna and Cardi’s conversation – they ARE sitting quite close together, although they arrived separately. The body language indicates discomfort, however. Anna was born in the UK and Cardi WAS born in Manhattan, although she has the thickest (gangsta?) accent we’ve ever heard. Can Anna understand a word that Cardi says? Does she want to?

CELEBRITIES LINE UP FOR THE CHANEL COUTURE SHOW IN PARIS

Chanel always gets an impressive celebrity turnout for their front row seats and this season is no exception. Vanessa Paradis got married for the first time to director Samuel Benchetrit last weekend, but she skipped the honeymoon to attend Paris couture collections happening this week. Penelope Cruz, in head to toe pink Chanel, is the new Brand Ambassador. Our favorite fashion couple, Pharrell Williams and his wife Helen Lasichanh, are subtly attired today, but they are starting to look more and more alike…

KAIA GERBER AND CINDY CRAWFORD: MOTHER KNOWS BEST

Kaia Gerber opened the Spring 2018 show at Chanel in Paris with considerable fanfare, and did her best to make this peculiar fringed outfit with the transparent vinyl boots appear lust-worthy. She’s got the whole catwalk routine down pat, thanks to coaching from her mother Cindy Crawford. Ironically, Cindy caused QUITE a stir and an explosion of flashbulbs outside when she arrived looking fabulous – and took her seat in the front row.

PHARRELL WILLIAMS: BEING HAPPY NEVER GOES OUT OF STYLE

Pharrell Williams, 44, and his model/designer wife Helen Lasichanh are ALWAYS predominantly featured at the Chanel couture shows in Paris. He’s perhaps the best dressed guy in the music biz – Esquire named Williams BEST DRESSED MAN IN THE WORLD in 2005. We bet this stylish couple, who call themselves “best friends,” sometimes trade clothes. Helen gave birth to TRIPLETS in January, but the babies’ sexes and names are STILL a secret! Since their 8 year old son is called Rocket, we expect some very original monikers…

Oh, and while Paris Jackson is in Paris, France, she happens to have a job – as the face of Chanel for Karl Lagerfeld’s new ad campaign! And so it begins… Paris is ready to explore all her opportunities – modeling, acting, whatever. It’s the best thing that’s happened to her – she’s socializing with successful, artistic people and that may help her find a direction in life. And she’s literally starting at the TOP! Paris’s modeling career commenced today with a photoshoot featuring American soldiers and an army jeep in front of the Eiffel Tower. (Her boyfriend must be getting nervous.)

WILLOW SMITH IS 15 AND ALREADY HAS MORE THAN ONE CAREER

Willow Smith has to be one of the luckiest celebrity spawn alive. She’s 15 and already has established a singing career and a modeling career! She appeared in a Marc Jacobs fashion campaign last year and this year she is Karl Lagerfeld’s muse – he loves her style. Karl personally selected Willow as brand ambassador for the Chanel eyewear campaign. Karl likes ‘em young – last year’s ambassador was Lily-Rose Depp, now 17. We don’t know how Willow’s music career is going, but she’s a big hit in the fashion world. Just one thing- is she a Scientologist? One more – will she get an education?

JADA AND WILLOW SMITH ARE MAD FOR CHANEL

Look who’s in the front row at the Chanel show in Paris! It’s Jada Pinkett Smith and her daughter Willow, who’s fifteen now. It’s hard to believe Willow released her hit “Whip My Hair” six years ago. Jada looks very fashionable with her sleek bobbed hair and Willow obviously LOVES fashion – she’s wearing a stretchy jumpsuit with Karl Lagerfeld’s favorite gloves, Chanel boots, and her nose ring.
