Chanel's robots are your new fashion overlords

#artificialintelligence

If you're wondering what the future of fashion looks like, it looks like an early '90s robot fever dream built for Web 2.0. Chanel took to the catwalk at Paris Fashion Week on Tuesday to show off its tech-inspired, Spring-Summer 2017 collection (yes, they're already that much cooler than you). Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld described it as an exercise in "intimate technology." Here's what we know for sure: Lagerfeld has been watching a lot of Daft Punk film clips, and next month's fashion magazines are going to be filled with "pixelated tweed." The ready-to-wear collection was shown off in Chanel's customary Paris runway venue, the Grand Palais.
