Carine Roitfeld appeared before the audience in the form of the Mademoiselle Chanel, dressed in jacket in addition coquettish hat in the spirit of Coco, a string of pearls around her neck and a pair of scissors in his hand.

What we just did not do with a jacket - shortened sleeves, they remove them completely, twisting it on the wrong side. This is a very simple piece of clothing, you can wear whatever you like. It can be worn with jeans or an evening dress on top, it can be seen even on the ballerina, he goes to everyone. It's an amazing thing. It is something like a denim jacket, but it looks very elegant.
