The SA that showed me the pale pink jacket last week commented that it was woven to maximize the halo effect that mohair is renowned for. It is a beautiful execution of the outer space concept, but the reality is that it will not be durable. I thought the buttons were quite lovely but would probably yellow over time.

Ughh I hope the acrylic buttons don't yellow. I have them on my plaid cosmopolite jacket. [emoji33]
 
These were the pearl encased in the clear lucite/acrylic - are those the same ones on the Cosmopolite jacket?

Probably in the next decade or two they will yellow, not right away. By then they will be vintage, right? Kinda like the buttons from the '95 era - they have a certain look now.

Not exactly the same but similar. I'm not thrilled out them. I prefer nicer buttons for the price but they worked with the jacket. There is another jacket I'm considering that has similar buttons. [emoji848]
I guess I'll be vintage by then too.

We'll all be vintage by then if we're [emoji256] . I can't worry about buttons, I hope Chanel will change the yellow ones whilst I'm enjoying a glass of [emoji136] or I will sort out some nice on eBay and fix the problem [emoji106]

Is it me but i just can't get into the moon men skirts and tops????!! On the stylist is looks great with the boots - if you work in the store. However, I would have a hard time translating that to outside of the boutique.
Outfits like this I don't really understand. I guess it's like some types of modern art...it may seem genius if it speaks to you, but otherwise it just looks like a haphazard assortment of things thrown together.
I feel like I could pull three things at random out of my closet and achieve a similar look :)

And when I tried it on I luckily fell out of love. It's nice and sooo cozy but was not flattering. I felt like I was being eaten by a wool monster. However still a cute piece. Not for me especially for 8950 he he.[/QUOLol wool monster! I agree not for the price!
 
Yes ! The one on the runway has the embroidered Eiffel Tower and it was 12k I think. The inside is silk lining and so soft you just sink in it. Haha. It was the same gorgeous knit as the long grey cardigan. Sadly it was not as cute on me as it was on the model :) IMG_1506044361.733853.jpg
