Monday at Chanel

'Stairway to Heaven'??
A small peek inside the Chanel Haute Couture fitting room at the 31 Rue Cambon store...it was very large and beautiful, with mirrored walls and tall ceilings...when I walked in, a very famous hair stylist was sitting in the studio..his name escapes me now. He looks just like the male model with the beard in the H&M campaign this season!

edit: thank you to a helpful reader...it was John Nollet! He is so handsome.

.........some of the dresses I tried on.....

A very beautiful, stylish, and sweet girl helped me during the fitting. I loved her outfit..especially the shoes!

We were shoe twins...I have the same shoe in white tulle. So great in black satin too.




The whole experience was unbelievable...I had worked myself into a panic in the weeks prior to the fitting. I was almost more anxious than excited by the time I arrived...as soon as I met some of the haute couture team my nerves dissolved. Everyone was very laid-back...of course I enjoyed every second of the fitting!
The gown is so beautiful....


Part of the day was spent getting pictures taken for a press package for Le Bal...I got to see so much of the city!



"I can totally do that!"

Maybe not as well as the photographer could...





My mom and I at the Place de la Concorde..
I wish I were still in Paris!!
I will be back in November for the Crillon Ball..wow, I cannot wait!
wow jane your so lucky. my heart is racing. an opportunity like that is just incredible. its great you had fun!

So surreal!!! Congrats again Jane!!! You deserve every bit of it!
Can I ask where your boots are from? They are fierce.
I can't wait to see what you will wear to the ball, Cinderella.
Ugh... jalouse! haha
You look absolutley amazing with those boots. Love how your scarf sort of matches with the sculpture!
Isn't Paris amazing? Pity you couldn't time the fitting with Paris fashion week!
That's amazing! You must have felt like the luckiest girl in the world : ) Will you get to meet Karl Lagerfeld as well?
What boots are you wearing?
That looks like tons of fun! I want to see your dress!

Oh Jane, this is going to be the most fantastic experience! My favorite time of the year is Ball season in Vienna, and each time it is a fairytale come true. I am certain you will shine like a princess at the Crillon Ball!! Lots of Love!
Every girl in the world wants to be you!!! Did you meet Karl? Can't wait to see the dress!! What did you buy from the store (I'm assuming that you weren't just carrying around a Chanel shopping bag)?

Hey Jane!
This is indeed a very unforgetable experience. ha ha! yeah, you looked a bit nervous in front of the camera i guess. i really feel you can do it much better without the cameraman around. i really can't wait to see your dress! Keep us posted yeah!
You are so incredibly lucky! Congratulations on that! Must have been a dream come true. You look so beautiful in these wonderful pictures!
Love,
Maria
oh wow, Jane you're so unbelievably lucky for a girl of your age (well, we're at the same age anyway). You're invited to the Crillon Debutante Ball? That's so amazing! Not an ordinary people can get invited :D I'll be waiting for more of your posts, and anyway, nice pic Jane. I love the close up photos. You look cute.
