Fabulous. Can you imagine having attended last week's Fendi runway show on the Great Wall of China? I really can't imagine how awe-inspiring it must have been, so we'll have to go by what Kate Bosworth and Thandie Newton thought. China's Great Wall was lit up on Friday with its first ever big-name fashion show.


In this video you see an amazing panoramic view from the Wall and an oh-so-chic posse of fashionistas led by Julia Restoin-Roitfeld. Then, the show, which was constructed on a raised platform on a restored part of the Wall. With Euro-Trance music in the background, we witness a colorful mix of furs and silks complete with awesome belts and the re-introduction of Fendi's signature "Baguettes." In the end, bows by Silvia Fendi and the mastermind Karl Lagerfeld. Again, fabulous.

    WOW!!! Been to the Great Wall and I'm trying to visualize how they did this show. It must have been a real challenge getting all those clothes, models etc, not to mention how the models were able to make changes.

    AWESOME!!!

    Genius.

    I hope Bruno (Sasha Baron Cohen's gay fashion reporter character) was there backstage to catch all the platitudes...

    So totally ridiculous! Karl is an old fool who thinks he's a rockstar.

    The restored sections of the great wall are like Disneyland; very commercialized. I don't know if I like the idea of having a fashion show on the Great Wall. It seems like China is willing to sacrifice their history and monuments in order to make money and seem more western. Sure, there have been awesome fashion shows in cathedrals in Europe, but does European high fashion belong on the Great Wall?
