Lily Allen’s Chanel Barn Dance In Pictures

FRONT-page news in the Independent is Lily Allen’s performance at Karl Lagerfeld’s Chanel fashion show in Paris.

Lily has risen from the floor of a stage barn scene to sing a song about her rubbish lover. Perhaps a farm is the perfect place for an Allen encore? And, yes, this is the same Lily Allen that the Mirror reported had retired from music:

Guests filing into the Grand Palais were greeted by hop sacks, garlands of flowers and a giant haystack. A huge Chanel-branded barn sat centre-stage. Cock-a-doodle-doo squawked the soundtrack, and then the bucolic festivities began…

Models appear:

Colours were sandy (wheaty?) and prettiest when infused with soft pink. Edges were trimmed with more wheat and tiny fondant-coloured flowers.

Not just any wheat, but Chanel wheat, which you can weave into tiny Shreddies. And all the while Lily sings:

Largerfeld, who took his bow as the models frolicked, hinted that his ambitions had been even wilder.
‘We had little pigs that we were going to bring into the hall, but they were so smelly we didn’t dare to let them out,’ he said.
