15 Things You Need to Know About the Chanel Airlines Show
It seems Karl Lagerfeld tries to one-up himself with every Chanel runway show he stages. For Spring '16, the designer literally took his collection to new heights, transforming Grand Palais into a very stylish airport, home to Chanel Airlines.
