One of our featured budding fashionistas of 2015 and a regular on the front row of countless fashion shows, Kim Raymond is no stranger to the fashion scene.

So when Chanel looked east -- to South Korea -- to host its cruise 2016 show, we requested the stylish lady to give us a firsthand account of her experience through her Instagram posts.

From shopping and dining at Apgujeong-dong to attending the show and Chanel Fine Jewellery luncheon with fellow Malaysians and international icons, Kim shows us the best of #ChanelCruiseSeoul.

Good afternoon from Seoul. I am on the way to The Galleria in Apgujeong-dong for a little bit of shopping!

Having some pre-show cocktails with managing director of Chanel Malaysia, Cynthia Lim at Grand Hyatt, Seoul.

Seated with 2 other Malaysian guests, Zahida Rafik and Zizie Izette, as we wait for the show to begin.

Karl Lagerfeld doing the final walk with Soo Joo Park and Hudson Kroenig.

Managed to get a group photo with Gisele Bündchen right after the show and another with Carine Roitfeld during the afterparty. 

The staircase on the outside of Dongdaemun Design Plaza, where the show was held.

 

Attended the Les Intemporels de Chanel Fine Jewelry luncheon and tried on some beautiful pieces like this Plume necklace (pictured above right).

Last day in Seoul. Back in The Galleria in Apgujeong-dong again with my mother for lunch at Rooftop by Tasting Room.
