Chanel: Runway - Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Spring/Summer 2014

This is at least cheerful.

And it matches ALL of your shoes!

To me, this is both insane and kind of great. It's completely silly and I can't wait for someone to wear it. It actually makes total sense that Katy Perry was at this show, because these bright paint-chip frocks might be a smart way for her to take her candy-flavored persona and make it seem marginally more sophisticated.

The more I see this pattern, the more I actually think it's fabulous. I love that skirt. Someone will wear that skirt. Emma Stone, call someone and get yourself this skirt.

This actually feels like the most wearable iteration.

Right, and then a random dude showed up because Karl. He's carrying paintbrushes IN CASE YOU DON'T GET IT.

So, it turns out Ricky Martin's Airport Pants are right on trend.

There was also a giant handful of stuff that felt SUPER Chanel-y, like so. I particularly like the way the traditional pearls have morphed into like one GIANT PEARL and its still-large sidekick.

This is like what would happen if you took your Chanel jacket out of the closet and said, "I wish this was actually a hideous, shapeless housedress" and then the genie who lives in your carry-on bag granted that wish.

Jennifer Lawrence, once you shake the shackles of Dior, this is calling your name.

Rihanna, I agree with you that losing the oxford shirt under that sweater actually WILL make this work better on you.

Chandler Bing, your new sweater vests are here!

That skirt is cute....?

You know that if you wear this straight-on, you'll look just like all the little Chanel-wearing old ladies having drinks at the Beverly Wilshire right now, yes? Okay, as long as that's clear.

I wish this ended at the first of the two hems -- the sentences I type sometimes, you guys - because the color is great and a sweater-dress is a classic.

As far as Karl is concerned, spring is chilly.

This feels VERY Chanel, and for those of us who enjoy that, it is therefore rather a pleasure.

This might have a cape? Regardless, I approve.

And I love a good coatdress. Oh, Chanel, sometimes I do want to hug you.

SOMEONE is going to wear this to a photocall.

And there are SOME outfits that should NEVER have a crop-top. This being one.

And these shorts are totally ruining a perfectly good thing for me. I think shorts are generally considered cooler and younger than a skirt, but in this case these feel TOTALLY "Are these acceptable for lunch at the club, Muffy?"

Chanel: Runway - Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Spring/Summer 2014

But I heart this.

And wherever Diane Kruger is right now, this is what she is wearing.

Everybody, take a bow. It's almost over.

Paris Fugshion Week: Chanel
All I know is, being exhausted because you're tooling all over Europe to go to fashion shows is a lovely and enviable problem to have, but everyone who's been covering these things since New York Fashion Week kicked off almost a month ago must feel like their heads are about to explode and they're trapped in some kind of Groundhog Day meets Pret-a-Porter nightmare dreamscape. "No more directional footwear," one of them is muttering to herself right now, curled up in her Frette bathrobe in her hotel bathroom in Paris. "I can't do anymore. I can't. Someone please bring me a vat of macaroni and cheese and let me watch twenty straight hours of House Hunters." Well, precious darlings, Kaiser Karl certainly isn't helping. He showed over a 100 looks at Chanel this week. I am not going to do that to you -- if you want to see every stitch of the show, check it out at The Cut -- but I can give you a selection thereof. AND I WILL. [Photos: Getty]
