Lagerfeld is known for his fashion show settings and has created a mock casino, supermarket and brasserie in the past.

His Chanel airport, set against a backdrop of a blue sky and white clouds, was a nod to the past glamorous jet age, with not a single stressed traveller in sight.

"This is the idea of the way (an airport) should be. In a way, it was like this but then they were smaller and flying was another business," he said.

"But this is a kind of place for a take-off to all kinds of directions and all kinds of situations."
