Paris–Monte Carlo

A zigzag drawn in black thread

This is one of the most beautiful tweeds of Karl Lagerfeld's Paris–Monte Carlo Métiers d'Art collection: a black Lesage tweed lit with small flecks of colour, then embroidered across its whole surface in a running zigzag of black thread, so the cloth seems to move like light on night water. The same tweed walked the runway as a long hooded coat.

Long, sharply tailored and fastened with CC tweed buttons, it is a jacket for every day and every evening, a rare collector's piece in pristine condition.

Material Poetry

A deep black Lesage tweed, woven with flecks of colour and embroidered over its whole surface in black.

The tweed is black, scattered with short accents of white, cobalt and garnet, like sparks in the dark.
The embroidery is pure black, laid in a rhythmic zigzag that runs edge to edge in unbroken chevrons.
The contrast is subtle: black thread on black ground, visible as a raised relief that catches the light.
The pattern reads as texture from afar and as drawing up close, the colour flickering between the stitches.
The lining is black silk, smooth and quiet inside.

House Codes

CC tweed buttons, small and precise, at the front, the pockets and the cuffs.
Lesage, the embroidery house of Paris, whose hand gives this tweed its life.

Black, Gabrielle Chanel's colour of elegance, here alive with movement.
The chain, sewn inside the hem so the long jacket falls perfectly straight.

Silhouette

A long, slim jacket with the line of a man's coat and the ease of a cardigan, falling past the hip in one clean column.

The collar is a neat notched lapel, sharp and tailored.
The front closes single-breasted on a row of CC tweed buttons.
The pockets are four, two at the chest and two at the hip, each closed with a flap and button.
The sleeves are slim and straight, finished at the wrist.
The back is smooth and straight, letting the zigzag run uninterrupted.
