The Miami Herald’s Kathryn Wexler interviewed Karl Lagerfeld at the Raleigh Hotel where he will be debuting Chanel Cruise Collection later today. The best lines from the interview were:

  • “Nothing can be brought back. But you can take an inspiration and make something different of today out of it.” ~ Karl Lagerfeld
  • “My favorite line from Spinoza is: Every decision is refusal.” ~ Karl Lagerfeld

Lagerfeld was chosen as one of this year’s TIME 100 under the Builders and Titans category. Zaha Hadid wrote his feature and as many fashion followers are aware Chanel has an Mobile Art Museum designed by Hadid.

As we get closer to the debut of the Chanel Cruise Collection 2008 - 2009 at The Raleigh this week, more podcasts are becoming available.

The first podcast evoked refreshment and below are the 2nd and 3rd of 5 podcasts.

The 2nd brings to mind tranquility, getting away from it all, and enjoying time. Don’t miss the floating Chanel cloud logo. The 3rd teaser has the iconic Chanel logo magically floating above the sand and water, enchanting everything in its path.

You can subscribe to receive the podcasts directly.

PSFK reported on Vice Magazine’s 2008 Global Trend Report and provided readers with a brief comparison to last year’s report.

Vice Magazine’s annual report covers fashion trends in 15 upcoming cities among them:

Some differences you expect such as the contrast between NY and LA

NY: ” New York girls these days don’t want to look cutesy and innocent”

LA: ” For girls, the younger and cuter you can make yourself look, the better.”

Miami, didn’t make it into the report but we’ll try to work on a local trend report for you.
