Description
History of the Model: Chanel’s fall-winter 2004 collection, designed under the artistic direction of Karl Lagerfeld, is a continuation of the house’s heritage by reinterpreting tweed, an emblematic material introduced by Gabrielle Chanel in the 1920s. The long coat, often revisited by Lagerfeld, becomes an essential piece of the women’s wardrobe, between formal elegance and casual look. This piece embodies Chanel’s vision for structured but free clothing, faithful to the innovative spirit of the house. Exterior Details: The coat is made from a wool tweed with a check pattern, mixing powder pink with intense black with touches of off-white. The irregular texture of the tweed, combined with the frayed finishes, reinforces the artisanal aspect of the piece. Two patch pockets on the chest and three antique gold metal buttons with a lion motif adorn the cuffs. A tone-on-tone tweed camellia, sewn near the collar, adds a decorative touch emblematic of Chanel. Interior Details: The interior of the coat is fully lined with black silk or a high-end synthetic fabric with a smooth feel, ensuring comfort and fluidity to wear. The lining is carefully assembled, without signs of wear, and contributes to the impeccable fit of the coat. An interior label indicates the French origin of the garment and the reference to the 04A collection. Product Condition: This coat is in very good general condition. The tweed is intact, with no snags or pulled threads. The colors are well preserved, without fading. The buttons are securely fastened, and the lining has no stains or tears. The whole thing has clearly been barely worn and maintained in optimal conditions. Care Instructions: Professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the structure of the tweed and the quality of the lining. It is advisable to store the coat on a wide hanger, away from direct light and humidity. Avoid prolonged rubbing against rough surfaces to preserve the texture of the fabric. Why Choose this Product: This long Chanel tweed coat is an iconic piece, combining traditional know-how with a strong visual signature. It is aimed at lovers of vintage designer clothing in search of authenticity and discreet refinement. The presence of historic details like camellia, textured tweed and lion buttons reinforces its heritage value, while remaining perfectly suited to a contemporary wardrobe.
