Here is the Quintessential CHANEL Black Suit for your wardrobe collection


Lagerfeld is the essence of a fashion innovator who can make a simple Ensemble into HIGH-ART.

When guests filed into the Grand Palais for this past runway show,
they were greeted by the sight of a giant monument to the Chanel jacket, apparently cast in concrete.
The message? The immutability of the brand!
Perhaps not a bad statement in a week when the search for rock-solid future investments is, playing on people's minds.
In Karl Lagerfeld's hands, the Chanel couture jacket is an infinitely malleable treasure, always current yet timelessly valuable.
This collection reiterated that magical strength to the max,
Even the Vintage Jacket has the same cache.
Here is a suit from the Autumn 2000 collection.
As perfect today as the day it was made!

Here is a CHANEL SUIT that has had many variations through the years and the runway presentations
This one will always be perfectly elegant and tasteful
Nothing trendy, nor flippant about this divine sense of style!

Fastened with snaps from the waist to the decolletage
No collar with a rounded neck meeting at a vee above the bustline
The jacket is circled by dense rows of Black Shiny Sequins around the neckline the front panels of the jacket
The Arched cuffline.
I think this was designed to be worn as an open jacket with a cami or bustier underneath
But the owner has had the snaps put in so the underpinning is not a problem

If you saw the film the LAST GREAT EMPEROR of Fashion about Valentino
His one designer compatriot was Karl Lagerfeld
They admired the retrospective together
And Lagerfeld, said: " If it wasn't for you and me, every one else is making rags!"
Lagerfeld is a notorious egomaniac, but there is some truth to his amazing ego.
When you can have true glamour, & Classic timeless chic, don't settle for less
And, a piece of history, too.
Don't miss out!
