Description
Model History:
Chanel’s Fall-Winter 2014/15 collection, dubbed “Le Supermarché Chanel”, remains one of Karl Lagerfeld’s most memorable runway shows. Presented in a life-size supermarket scenography, this line hijacked everyday objects into luxury pieces. The “Lait de Coco” bag is one of the most emblematic examples, combining humor, modernity and refinement. Now a collector’s item, it symbolizes Chanel’s quirky, creative approach of the early 2010s.
Exterior Details:
The bag is crafted in iridescent pearlescent white leather, with diamond quilted sides and the CC logo embossed on the back. The front features the inscription “lait de coco” in silver lettering set with rhinestones and imitation pearls, adding sparkle and originality. The shoulder strap is made of an aged silver metal chain interlaced with white leather, a signature of the house. Its rectangular shape, elongated and rigid, evokes a milk carton, measuring approximately 20 x 11 x 9 cm.
Interior Details:
The interior, lined in silver leather, features a single compartment with a minimalist design. Sober yet functional, it’s spacious enough to accommodate the essentials of an outing. A metal plate engraved “Chanel – Made in Italy” attests to the bag’s authenticity.
Product Condition:
The bag is in very good overall condition. The leather retains its pearlescent sheen, with light, discreet marks of use visible on the corners. The rhinestone and pearl inscriptions are intact and shiny. The aged silver metal chain retains its robustness and shine, with no noticeable oxidation. The interior is clean and well preserved.
Care instructions:
Protect pearlized leather from moisture and direct light to prevent color fading. Clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth after use. Store the bag in its cotton cover, away from any pressure, to preserve its rigid shape. Handle crimped inscriptions with care to maintain their brilliance and avoid shocks.
