The United States and Cuba have started to de-frost their relations and Karl Lagerfeld took the opportunity to shine a light on Chanel's connection with the Caribbean country. On a tree lined promenade in Havana, Lagerfeld created a lively and colorful Cruise collection, juxtaposing modern touches with the country's indelible ties to the 1950s, including the classic cars that many of the citizens still drive. The men's collections, including sharp hats, were from by Baptiste Giabiconi, Jake Davies, Sebastien Jondeau and Hudson and Brad Kroenig.

Bruce Weber gathers five of the most iconic male models of the past two decades for a reunion story for the FW15 issue of VMAN. RJ Rogenski, Tyson Ballou, Andres Segura, Brad Kroenig, and Jake Davies stun on the pages wearing everything from Balenciaga to just white towels, all styled by Deborah Watson.

Chanel has taken its runway show to the farthest reaches of the world, from Dallas to Shanghai. Today, Karl Lagerfeld staged a show in Salzburg, Austria, a place close to his heart and only a short flight from Chanel's headquarters in Paris. The Pre-Fall collections, oft times called Métiers d'Art, celebrates the artisans who work for Chanel, from Lesage (embroidery) to A.C.T.3 (tweed). All that and more was showcased today and even some on Baptiste Giambiconi, Jake Davies, Sebastian Joundeau, Brad Kroenig and his son, Hudson. The unisex looks on these five men included classic Chanel jackets to foulards and embroidered pants.

It was a real hoedown last night in Dallas as the fashion cognoscente diverged to see what Karl Lagerfeld had in store for them as he reinterpreted Coco Chanel's vision and melded it with the local culture in Texas. The result was a plethora of Navajo-inspired prints, denims, tweeds and plenty of furs and skins. All the usual suspects were seen on the runway like Sebastien Joundeau, Brad Kroenig and his son Hudson Kroenig, Jake Davies and Marlon Teixeira. Added to the brood this season was British model Edward Wilding, of Versace fame, all of whom wore the creations of the couture house's director.

No other fashion house whisks VIPs and other notable names to interesting locales around the world like Chanel. Quickly after the 2013 Costume Institute Ball, Chanel and by extension, Karl Lagerfeld, whisked models and celebrities onto a jumbo jet to fly them for 18 hours to Singapore for the house's Cruise 2014 collection. This collection was vast, with enough pieces to make even the most devout Chanel client roll his or her eyes into the back of their head. The tailoring was loose and 50s inspired with strong influences from Coco's history in the South of France. The menswear felt equally vintage-inspired with the calm and worry-free vibe of the upper class, with plenty of incredible, couture-quality, details.

Jake Davies and Karl Lagerfeld continue to work together. The German-born Renaissance man captures Jake for the December 2012 issue of Vogue Russia in a stunning and lush shoot, with the magazine's Ekatherina Mukhina styling the glamorous shoot.

Fendi's Creative Director Karl Lagerfeld once again goes behind the camera to shoot the Italian fur maker's SS12 campaign. Included in the campaign are some of Karl's favorite models like Jake Davies, Brad Kroenig and Sebastien Joundeau. Also making a cameo is Travis Cannata, who helped close Chanel's Spring/Summer 2012 collection back in October 2011.

For Chanel's Cruise 2012 collection, Karl Lagerfeld visited a familiar place for its location: the French Riviera. For Chanel's last Cruise collection, Karl whisked editors, buyers and models to St-Tropez; this year, he converged the fashion world in the seaside town of Cap d'Antibes. The select menswear pieces, modeled by Baptiste Giabiconi, Jake Davies, Oriol Elcacho, Mark Vanderloo, Sebastien Jondeau and Brad Kroenig, resembled glorified hotel staff uniform, with one lone exception: Baptiste's second look, where he dons a turban, pinned together by a bejeweled piece from Chanel's Haute Joaillerie collection.
