In a salute to luxury brand Chanel, artist Tetsuya Noguchi has created some concept samurai armor suits designed to appeal to the fashion-conscious warrior. Made from resin, cashew lacquer, cloth and glass, the exquisitely crafted protective suits sport the iconic double-C logo, allowing the wearer to flaunt his superior social status while crushing the enemy on the battlefield.

I dont see the point... The concept of designer samurai wear is intriguing but this seems poorly executed, they didnt really add anything except their logo. Then again, that is all designer wear is...

And what's with the rabbit ears???
[ ]I think any serious designer could make a better job at acknowledging a great warrior as well as a great brand name; this one has done none of this.
Seriously, as I read the title I was expecting something extraordinary; this is extraordinarily bland.

Samurai armor is so awsome,and a great part of Japanese history.These sets of armor with the garish addition of rabbit ears and the Chanel logo,make it look cheap and I for one am not amused.You insult the honor of Bushido,with these childish costumes.
