Karl makes a green statement at his last fashion show


Mr. Karl Lagerfeld has lined up wind turbines -which he loves for their “beautiful modern architecture”- for his show at the last Paris Fashion week, and had the models striding down a solar panels tiled runway. 
“Energy is the most important thing in life,” he told reporters afterwards.
Although it could look as a mere matter of stage design, in my opinion this is something that not only would have never happen ten years ago -especially since the modern windmills have often been loathed for their impact on the natural landascape and thus have always been regarded as horrible- but that also gives some justice to these white giants. Their height compared to the proportion of the models managed to give the "grande" effect, while the clean white shapes were creating a pleasant contrast with the Grand Palais' glass and iron sorrounding structure. 
Well done K.
