Naomi Campbell was one of Karl Lagerfeld’s favorites and he was one of her favorites too. They understood each other. For the Met Gala, she pulled a Chanel Spring 2010 dress out, probably from her own archives. She has an airport-hanger full of her archives, I can only imagine the Chanel pieces she already has. Anyway, I really liked this because very few women wore or were inspired by these kinds of Lagerfeld designs. There was so much focus on the tweed, the severe neckline, the ties, the pearls. This too is Lagerfeld.

Anna Wintour decided to use her own f–king gala to make a couple-debut with her boyfriend Bill Nighy! It’s true. There have been rumors about them for a while, so this is a confirmation. They’re happening. Anna wore Chanel Spring/Summer (not vintage).

Christina Ricci in Fendi. Ricci used to collect Chanel jewelry and vintage Chanel, but she said she sold most of it to get a divorce. This look is not her best, but it’s fine.

Penelope Cruz in Chanel. She’s always loved Chanel, and I am fine with this. Is it the imagery a bit too religious? Sure. But whatever.

Lily Collins in Vera Wang. A black-and-white dress with “KARL” on the train. Groundbreaking.

Paris Hilton in Marc Jacobs. I’m surprised by this overall – it’s not pink, it’s not crazy, and it’s just boring.
