By Pauline Ades-Mevel PARIS (Reuters) – Known for his extravagant runway settings, designer Karl Lagerfeld led fashionistas into a serene garden on Tuesday at the Chanel haute couture catwalk show in Paris. Having, in previous years, turned the Grand Palais into an airport, a supermarket and a brasserie, the designer, who has been at the creative helm of Chanel since 1983, sent models out of a wooden house down a garden path across a neat green lawn. Lagerfeld said the starting point for the line was “the silhouette” and he puffed up sleeves into oval shapes on Chanel's signature tweed jackets paired with pencil-slim skirts.
