Last friday was the last Chanel Pop-up event on 가로수길 (Garosu-gil). Although it was held at the same location as the previous week, the set up was completely different.
If you are wondering about the title of this post, it refers to a fabulous yet intimidating older woman that was present that night. She was dressed head to toe in black, including an incredible coat with a popped collar that was almost vampiresque. Her mannerisms and the way she would only crack the slightest smirk every so often made me think of her as an Asian Anna Wintour. When I asked to take a picture of her, she looked at me, gave me THE smirk, and then turned her head back to the manicurist. I decided to take it as a yes?
My friends and I also struck up a conversation with Chanel's head makeup artist for the Asia-Pacific region. He offered to do my friend Molly's makeup and we all watched him work his magic. I was speechless at how talented he is. And at how fast! What he did in 10 minutes would have taken me 45 and it wouldn't have looked half as good.
Here are more pictures from the event!
