Armani Annouces Fur Free Policity
Where is everyone going? Raf Simons leaving Dior, or Hedi Slimane departing Saint Laurent, or even Alber Elbaz exiting Lanvin, this would unequivocally be the most significant "musical chairs" rocking the fashion industry in the last year. According to Page Six, the 82-year-old Karl Lagerfeld might leave his longtime post at Chanel (Lagerfeld has been at the helm of Chanel since 1983) after the brand's upcoming resort show in Cuba.
So who will be sitting in which Trone?
Of course, the rumor mill has churned out this particular piece of gossip before. In 2009 and then again in 2010, Lagerfeld was said to be retiring, with Elbaz coming in as his replacement. (Of the 2009 iteration of that rumor, Cathy Horyn wrote in the New York Times, "Mr. Lagerfeld said to forget about it. He was going to die with his boots on.") Lagerfeld has been creative director of Chanel for 33 years. But some other whisperings say that that Hedi Slimane is set to replace the Kaiser at Chanel...
But, in 2012, he told Vogue TV "Why should I stop working? If I do, I'll die and it'll all be finished."
Let´s take a deep breath and wait...next month’s Resort show in Cuba could very well be Lagerfeld’s runway swan song. And if so, he will leave a(nother) huge mark in Chanel (and Fashion) history, by performing a show in Cuba; the first one!

Je SUIS Bruxelles!
Yesterday has been another dark day ... Lux-a-Porter is in solidarity with Brussels!
I make a friends words, my own words:
"I’m a Christian, but I have Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Agnostic, …, friends.
I love them all, despite the differences.
I also have friends from Belgium, and my thoughts are going to them right now, namely my big friend Jean-Pierre Van Waeleghem.
The terrorist attacks of yesterday were not religious issues."
