Chanel Spring 2009 Couture

"In splendid defiance of the darkness of the time, Karl Lagerfeld said he'd cleared everything away and "started with a clean sheet of paper." An all-white collection sounds like an exercise in clinical minimalism, but it wasn't. It was rather like an uplifting rite of spring, perfectly pitched between graphic modernism, ravishing romance, and astonishingly innovative detail."(Sarah Mower, Style.com)

To me anyone who can create all of this from a clean sheet of paper, is sheer genius
