Description
History of the model A true pillar of the Chanel heritage, the tweed jacket was revolutionized by Gabrielle Chanel in the 1950s to liberate women’s bodies while asserting a modern silhouette. Over the seasons, Karl Lagerfeld then Virginie Viard have reinterpreted this iconic model through varied cuts, materials and lengths. This long version in size 40, with particularly luxurious finishes, is part of the tradition of the House while bringing a contemporary and opulent touch thanks to its golden highlights and its enveloping shawl collar. Exterior details The jacket is made from a dense tweed mixing black, white and gold threads, offering a sophisticated and textured visual relief. The wide shawl collar elegantly frames the neckline, while the double-breasted closure decorated with black buttons engraved with the double C asserts the identity of the piece. Two slanted pockets at the front emphasize the waist and provide discreet functionality. The cuffs and hem are accented by a contrasting tweed, predominantly black and gold, bringing visual structure to the whole. The back of the jacket is subtly slit and decorated with decorative buttons, reminiscent of the tailoring details of Chanel creations. Interior details The interior of the jacket is entirely lined with satin black silk with the Maison’s emblematic camellia motif.
