Chanel Haute Couture: Best dressed

While the catwalk spoke of Autumn/Winter in decadent, heavy fabrics – the celebrities in attendance were the embodiment of chic summer dressing as it’s finest. All decked out in Chanel, as you would expect, they showcased delicate straps and girlish romantic swathing, bar Leighton Meester who wowed in a black leather mini dress from the 2010 pre-autumn collection, complete with gold embellishment and military inspired skyscraper platforms.

Blake Lively opted for pastel chiffon in her romantic summer, spaghetti strapped number from the 2011 Resort collection – the sorbet tones and psychedelic print complementing her golden tan and tousled hair to perfection.

Jessica Alba chose another prom style silhouette, this time from the Spring 2010 line, and accented the simplistic yet beautifully cut white dress with a skinny red belt and some to-die-for Louboutins.

Clemence Poésy looked understatedly elegant in her pale tweed, capped sleeved outfit whilst Lou Doillon took a more androgynous approach in her masculine, tailored cream jacket, shirt and navy pencil skirt. As with the majority of guests and models themselves, the hair was left relatively unfussy – letting the amazing clothes speak for themselves.
