ʻOʻoe, e Coco Chanel, ke kala mai neiʻoe iā mākou, nā wāhine, no ka makani a me ka mana kīʻaha, akā i ka mea eʻike pono aiʻoe i kaʻuhane e makemake i nā hoʻokolohua a me ka hakakā no ka maikaʻi, e like me kāu i ho'āʻo ai e hoʻokō i kāu manawa, ʻaʻahuʻeleʻele!
I kēia manawa, i ka halaʻana o hoʻokahi haneli, ua kūlou mākou a pau i kēiaʻano hoʻohālikelike, kahi i hoʻopakele pinepine iā mākou ma kekahi mau hanana o ke ola, aʻoiai e waiho mau ana i ka nani a me ka wahine. Ua lokahi mākou i hana iā ia i kahi kiʻi o keʻano a hoʻokiʻekiʻeʻia i ke kūlana o kaʻaʻahu o ke ao holoʻokoʻa,ʻo ia wale nō i loko o ke kapaʻaʻahu o nā wahine maikaʻi a pau. Akā i kēia manawa.
... Ua hoʻololi iki nā mea a pau a makemake mākou i kahi mea hou, hou, keʻokeʻo. ʻO nā mea hoʻolālā hana, e like me ka heluheluʻana i ko mākou mau noʻonoʻo maikaʻi, ua hoʻokau i ka hauʻoli nui a hāʻawiʻia i kahi lehulehu i kahi lole keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo, a ua hoʻopau kokeʻia ka'ōnaehana holoʻokoʻa a me mākou, nā wāhine maʻamau. ʻAʻole,ʻaʻoleʻoe e manaʻo heʻaʻahu keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo keʻano'ē aʻe i kaʻeleʻele, akā,ʻo kona hoʻohuiʻana, he hana kūikawā o keʻano likeʻole,ʻoiai, me ka hakakā o kaʻelemakule, e hele mau i ka lima.
No laila, inā makemake pahaʻoeʻaʻole paha, he lole keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo aia ma ka piko o ke kaulana a me ka kaulana i ke kauwela hou o 2014. ʻO ke kumu o ka mea i koiʻia ai he mea paʻakikī ke'ōlelo, no ka mea, heʻulaʻula keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo a hoʻopoʻaʻia i nā manamana wāwae. Eia kekahi,ʻaʻole e hiki i nā kaikamahine'ōpio keʻaʻahu iā ia, e hoʻomanaʻo ana i kaʻoiaʻiʻo o kaʻoiaʻiʻo, ua piha nā kukui'āpana (ʻoiaiʻaʻole iʻike nā kānaka a pau i nā kilokiloʻelua o ka mea kaumaha nuiʻaʻole i ka lei, akā i keʻano o nā lole). Akā,ʻo ka meaʻoiaʻiʻo keʻano keʻokeʻo he mea pono loa ka mea iʻikeʻoleʻia. ʻO ia ma kahi e pili ana i ka laulua translucent a iʻole keʻano o nāʻala. Akā, ma kēia mea ma hope iki.
Ma hope o ka laweʻana i ke keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo i ka'ōpala, he nui nā mea kālai'āina, ka poʻe i hanaʻole ma mua i ka monochrome, i kāhāhā i ka paʻakikī a me ka hilahilaʻole. E like me ka mea iʻikeʻia, hiki i ka nui o ke keʻokeʻo ke hoʻololi i ke kapa i kahi pepa hoʻopiliʻole loa, i lilo i mea kupanaha, kokoke i kahiʻoihana hoʻokipa o ke kiʻi, me ke kōkuaʻana i nāʻoki a me nā mea leʻaleʻa, ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona keu o kēia ka mea hiki ke hiki keʻaʻahu nani i nāʻaʻahu, me ke kānaluaʻole o ka hōʻailona hōkele. E hoʻohui hou aku iā lākou i nā mea lehua nani o ka nani ... Voila - keʻano nui ka loli! Ma mua o mākou,ʻaʻole ia heʻaʻahu, akā, he kāʻei kapu o kahi kaha kiʻekiʻe. Hiki, ināʻoe e wehe i nā momona a pana iki paha i ka "liʻiliʻi", hiki iāʻoe ke hoʻolālā i keʻano likeʻole me kaʻopihi tulip. ʻO ka'ōlelo mua ia, 'aʻole anei? A iʻole maʻaneʻi: nā laina māmā o kahi kapa'ahuʻula, he neckline āpau liʻiliʻi me ka'ā'ī a me nā lima lima ma ka lakea keʻokeʻo. He mea paʻakikī kēia, e'ōleloʻoe aʻaʻole loa e hewa. ʻO ka mea huna o nāʻaʻahu keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo ma ka hoʻonuiʻiaʻana a me ka pilina o nā mea likeʻole, nā mea iʻikeʻia. ʻAe, a ma ka hope, lace. ʻO kēia kauwela,ʻo kona pāpale keʻano o ka lole kāhili,ʻo ia ka mea i hoʻololi i nā'ōmele'āmela maʻalā i nāʻano keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻoʻole. Hoʻopiliʻia i ka nani o ka lauoho keʻokeʻo o nā pālule lole, a me ka pua nani, a me nā pua a me nā mea'ē aʻe o ka vanilla. Ma ke ala, ka laikini keʻokeʻo i loko o kahi mea nani nani, nā mea hoʻolimalima kiʻi i noiʻia no nā hōʻuluʻulu kūikawā. Eia naʻe, e like me nā manawa a pau, he maikaʻi loa nā mea a pau me ke keuʻole: nā silhouettes pololei, nā kaula keʻokeʻo, nā pale nani, nā lole māmā i keʻano keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo maikaʻi.
ʻO kēia mau kapa keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo he nani loa, keʻaeʻoe, e Madame Coco? ʻAʻole lākou e hana i ka hana aʻaʻole like i kā lākou papahana hōʻailona, akā uaʻoi aku ka nui o lākou ma mua o ka pono e komo i nāʻaʻahuʻahu wahine i kahi kokoke i kouʻaʻahuʻeleʻeleʻeleʻele.
