'Gabrielle Chanel was the Queen of beige,' Karl Lagerfeld says of his nature-inspired couture collection in which the colour featured heavily from his elaborate rustic wooden house, which was the backdrop for the show, to his gowns embroidered with wood shavings and bees. And because no weekend away in the country is complete without documenting it all on social media: the models wore handy, smart phone pouches around their waists that came embroidered, beaded and encrusted with crystals. It was the kind of brilliant thing we never knew we needed until now. And chances are, you'll want one.
