Description
History of the Model: Presented as part of the Chanel Haute Couture Spring 2002 fashion show, this bag reflects Karl Lagerfeld’s approach at the time: revisiting the fundamentals of the house through a graphic and daring prism. The decor of the fashion show, installed in the Jardins des Tuileries in Paris, evoked a floral greenhouse, emphasizing the duality between nature and modernity. The “Coco-Print” model takes up the emblematic symbols of the house – the name “Coco” and the double C – in a repeated visual composition, asserting a strong and assertive signature in the world of luxury accessories. Exterior Details: The black quilted canvas is enhanced with an all-over “COCO” pattern in white and light gray, accompanied by CC logos in different formats. This graphic treatment, both sober and impactful, brings a pop dimension to the piece. The flap with gold turnstile closure ensures secure opening. The two-tone metallic chain strap (silver and gold), interwoven with black leather, allows it to be worn on the shoulder or across the body. A discreet patch pocket on the back completes the look. Interior Details: The interior is lined with smooth black leather. It includes a main compartment and a side patch pocket, suitable for everyday essentials. The leather label bearing the “Chanel Made in France” logo is accompanied by the original serial number, attesting to the authenticity of the bag. Product Condition: The bag is in very good vintage condition. The canvas retains its integrity, the prints are very clear, without notable alteration. The interior leather shows some normal signs of use for its age. The metal parts retain their shine. Care Instructions: Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight and humidity. Clean the canvas with a soft, dry cloth. The interior leather can be maintained with a suitable nourishing milk. Store the bag flat in its original cover to preserve its shape and print. Why Choose This Product: This Chanel “Coco-Print” bag from 2002 is an exceptional piece, witness to a period when Karl Lagerfeld breathed new energy into the legacy of Gabrielle Chanel. Its graphic design, its functional format and its rarity make it an accessory with strong stylistic and heritage value. For collectors and lovers of iconic vintage pieces, this model combines authenticity, character and timelessness.
