CHANEL Cruise 2011 Collection

Paraded straight from sunny Saint Tropez comes Karl Lagerfeld's latest extravaganza (albeit relatively low key this time) for CHANEL's Cruise 2011 Collection. But wait, is that gorgeous "plus size" model Crystal Renn walking in the show?? For those of you who might not know, Karl Lagerfeld is famous for abhorring any shape other than skinny- first by not wanting his line for H&M to be produced in large sizes, and second when he defended the size-zero problem in modelling...Well, well Mr. Lagerfeld, age softening you up a bit?? Here are some images from the lengthy CHANEL line-up:
