"Trunks will be shut on 30th November, then shipped off to Manchester!" exclaims Aska Yamashita, the flamboyant artistic director of Montex, one of the Maisons d'art showcasing their work at Chanel's show on 7th December in the North of England. Two weeks ahead of the show, and the countdown is on to finish the 79 outfits started at 19M, in the 19th arrondissement of Paris.
