the little black jacket.

Stumbling upon something truly by luck can make your day just that much better which is what happened when I found The Little Black Jacket exhibition in Sydney. The photographs, taken by Karl Lagerfeld, are of the only too well known Chanel black tweed jacket which has made its mark throughout the generations since its iconic creation. 
Unaware of the fact that this amazing exhibition was being presented in Sydney and then finding that it was presented right before me AND THEN discovering it was free AND THEN what would a Chanel exhibition be without complementary posters of some of the photographs, including Elle Fanning GASP. 
This jacket lives on now because it can be worn and lived through so many different personas. Going through the photographs people had decorated and presented the jacket through their own ideas and seeing it like this created each persons character. It was something unique to see and I am truly grateful to the higher power that lead me to it. 

You don't even have to see the name to know who this world dominating woman is. You can just stare magnificently and the back of my lavishly tamed bob and bow down. But on a serious note, the photograph does provoke that power and influence she holds. 

Photos are not my own

The photographs of Yoko Uno were definitely my favourite. There was a film alongside it called 'The Secret of my Long Life'. It all felt so free spirited. The way she wore the jacket was so simply different from all of the other photographs and the movement and shapes she created with it were emotional moving to say the least. It was beautiful to see how the jacket existed through her and other people.
