11 Chanel Couture Sneakers That We'll See In Our Dreams

Karl Lagerfeld did it again. He left everyone breathless at the Spring/Summer 2014 Chanel Couture show at the Grand Palais in Paris. But this time, it wasn't just about his insanely gorgeous couture pieces, it was all about the shoes. All of the shoes. In place of the expected mile-high stilettos and chunky stacked platforms on the feet of his models were shimmery, sequined, and, most importantly, flat sneakers instead. Of course, they weren't just any 'ol pair of running shoes. Couture shoemaker Massaro was the genius behind the embroidered and chiffon-wrapped Chanel sneakers. Here are 11 of his fabulous creations straight from the Chanel Couture runway.

BLACK AND GRAY

Black sneakers by themselves are edgy and punkish. But they can take an entirely new look when paired with a long, flowy dress.
