Charlotte Casiraghi Opened the Chanel Couture Show Atop a Real Live Horse
Chanel couture shows always start out with a “regular model” and close out with a bride.
And while creative director Virginie Viard upheld the latter tradition
at the house’s spring 2022 couture show, Viard
kicked things off with a surprise. Midway into a short film featuring Charlotte Casiraghi,
currently eleventh in line to the throne of Monaco, in full equestrian
mode, the 35-year-old royal of Monaco and granddaughter of Grace Kelly
emerged atop her steed in real life. Later, having dismounted, she
removed her helmet, let her hair down, and joined hands with Viard as
she took her final bow.
The stunt was something of a surprise from Viard, who has shied from Karl Lagerfeld’s famously over-the-top approach to runway shows since succeeding the late legend in 2019. Even Lagerfeld refrained from adding live animals into the mix when he transformed the Grand Palais into a hay-filled barn for spring 2010.
Viard went with a less elaborate setting, tapping the French artist Xavier Veilhan to take charge of the design. Xavier wanted to work with Charlotte Casiraghi,” Chanel’s creative director said in the show notes. “His artistic universe is full of horses and Charlotte is a skilled rider.” Casiraghi, an accomplished equestrian, she even broke into a speedy trot upon taking her final turn.

The first comment seems a bit strange to me. But maybe I didn't understand it right?
Love your digital collage and the photo of your family 2003. Such a nice pic of a wonderful family. You can be so proud of them.
How was your training today? And how are your shoulders, Jacki?
Todd is just great :-) I want to tell you that I have told many people the Kafka story about the little girl and the doll. Everyone loves the story so thanks for that. Tim thought it so sweet! :-)
Thanks ELENOR, Yes the firat comment is a hack, where they just want to get their message out, and they use my blog as a platform. It is annoying, but I can't delete it. What I can do is change the blog to an approval by me of what is posted, but that deters people who might otherwise leave a message. Seems there is always someone who figures out how to ruin something?
Thanks you, for your kind words, as always, they boost me. My shoulders, are getting stronger, almost daily. I didn't go to class today, as I am a bit tired from yesterday and also a bit moody. It is amazing how much pain can happen in a 30 minute physical therapy session, all necessary,of course.
Wishing you a great weekend approaching.
Thank you, John. I am so happy that you and others enjoyed the Kafka story. I loved it as it showed another side to a writer who wasn't necessarily appreciated for his sensitivity, and he certainly had it. I am particularly glad Tim liked it.
I finally found great post here.
