CHANEL · Runway Pastel Pink Tweed & Lace Coat with Bow Accent
— Paris / Rome Métiers d’Art 2016 · Karl Lagerfeld —

• Rare Collectible Runway Piece · For the Chanel Connoisseur •

Paris / Rome was built around cinema, but not the polished fantasy of a studio premiere — Lagerfeld preferred something more ambiguous: Cinecittà, old actresses, Roman light, black-and-white film, and Chanel codes made slightly strange by the atmosphere around them

This coat belongs beautifully to that world. Its first impression is soft — pastel pink, pearl-toned leather, a bow at the neck — but the black lace running through the tweed keeps the sweetness in check

MATERIAL POETRY

• Crafted from signature Chanel tweed in a noble pastel pink, softened with pale beige and ivory undertones

• The tweed is interlaced throughout with black lace, creating a fine graphic zigzag across the surface

HOUSE CODES

• A sculptural bow detail at the neck gives the upper line a softer, more romantic character

• Pearl-toned lambskin leather finishes the collar and cuffs, adding a smooth, luminous counterpoint to the textured tweed

• masterpiece silver-tone jewel CC buttons with Roman profile motifs, one of the collection’s most distinctive details

• Inside, the coat is finished with tonal silk lining
