THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS, FABULOUS AND FANTABULOUS FASHION FANTASY LABEL IS CHANEL AND IT HAS JUST RELOCATED FROM ONE DOMINANT LOCATION TO A BIGGER, BRIGHTER AND BETTER ONE AT THE NEW ANNEXE OF SURIA KLCC!

WITH A ROAD FRONTAGE SO THE WHOLE WORLD CAN SEE THE CHANEL NAME AND LOGO, THE NEW CHANEL BOUTIQUE IS A CLASS ACT WITH ENOUGH SPACE TO PLAY FOOTBALL INSIDE.

ITS CHANGING ROOM IS BIGGER THAN MY BATHROOM AND TOILET COMBINED AND THE NEW STORE HAS SEVERAL COSY ENCLOSURES SO YOU AND YOUR CRONIES CAN SIP TEA OR CHAMPAGNE WHILE WAITING FOR YOUR PLATINUM CARD TO CLEAR.

DESIGNED BY PETER MARINO, THE STORE BOASTS THE LATEST DESIGN AND DISPLAY ELEMENTS SUCH AS FULY DOLLED UP MANNEQUINS SITTING ON COUCHES AND SOFAS. CHANEL WAS THE FIRST TO COME UP WITH THIS STUNNINGLY EFFECTIVE YET SIMPLE IDEA TO THE CHAGRIN OF OTHER FAMOUS BRANDS WHICH ARE NOW RELUCTANT TO DO THE SAME AS EVERYONE WILL POINT AND SAY 'OH LOOK, THEY ARE COPYING CHANEL'!

You can use this as a bowling alley




THIS IS THE BENEFIT OF ALWAYS BEING THE FIRST AND AHEAD OF THE PACK YOU SEE. I HAVE BEEN WEARING SHIRTS, PANTS, BAGS AND SHOES WITH MY GORGEOUS FACE PAINTED ALL OVER THEM SO NOW IF SOMEONE ELSE DOES THE SAME, HE OR SHE WILL BE DOING A KEE HUA CHEE! DITTO FOR MY SHIRTS HAND SEWN WITH MULTI-HUED FEATHERS OR LAVISHED WITH COLOURFUL CRYSTALS AND BEADS THE SIZE OF PIGEON EGGS!

I HAVE BEEN AN ARDENT ADMIRER OF CHANEL FROM THE TIME I WAS IN SWADDLING CLOTHES TO NOW AND JUST AS WELL CHANEL DOES NOT HAVE MENSWEAR OR I WILL BE BANKRUPT BUYING THEM. ACTUALLY CHANEL DOES MAKE JACKET FOR MEN USING TWEEDS AND WITH THE POCKETS STYLED AFTER COCO CHANEL'S EPONYMOUS JACKETS BUT THESE ARE HARDLY SOLD. I ONLY SAW TOW HANGING FORLORNLY AT CHANEL FLAGSHIP STORE IN RUE CAMBON IN PARIS BEHIND THE RITZ HOTEL. THESE JACKETS DO NOT HAVE LAPELS AND ARE JUST MEN'S VERSION OF CHANEL'S MOST ICONIC AND UNMISTAKABLE BLAZER.


CHANEL RELOCATED TO NEW PREMISES AT SURIA KLCC ON 13 JUNE 2011
