“Bravo Chanel!” noted Elle in March 1991, “This is the right time for the sixties. But it has to be reinterpreted. You cannot make it a retrospective. Karl Lagerfeld redefines Chanel. Stylist Loren Laney. In the sixties, fashion was simple, even childlike. It’s redefined now. You can develop it. You have stretch fabrics that fit.”
