CHANEL – Paris / EDINBURGH 2013 Runway Coat

• a sovereign relic of the Highlands, forged at the height of Lagerfeld’s narrative genius — a garment that does not simply adorn, but ascends

— To encounter it is to feel history stirring; to wear it is to reign — quietly, irrevocably, beyond time — A runway masterpiece consecrated for collectors,
a relic of couture’s northern saga —

// Size mark 36 FR / Condition: never worn //

• crafted from supple navy cashmere, its check pattern calls forth the spectral geometry of royal tartans — a whisper of palaces in fog, of exiled queens, of rebellion gilded with tenderness

• braided trim handwoven in indigo, heather, and frost, tracing every border like a protective rune — the ancestral halo of the Paris–Édimbourg cosmology

• silver-tone jewel buttons, each stamped with the lion-headed CC crest — emblems not of decoration, but of sovereignty; small heraldic shields anchoring the garment in myth

• tonal silk lining blooming with camellias, hidden from the world, known only to the wearer — a secret garden of the Maison, a sanctuary pressed against the heart
