CHANEL · Pastel Blue Alpine Floral Jumper with Lionhead Buttons

Paris / Salzburg Métiers d’Art 2015 · Karl Lagerfeld

• Rare Collectible Knitwear Piece

Paris–Salzburg was one of Lagerfeld’s most atmospheric Métiers d’Art collections: alpine uniforms, Tyrolean references, Salzburg folklore and the disciplined charm of old Austrian dress, all filtered through Chanel’s own vocabulary.

• Woven from an exceptionally soft pastel blue knit, with a cloud-like handle and gentle structure

• The colour sits between powder blue, icy grey and pale cornflower, giving the piece a cool, luminous softness

• A masterpiece Gripoix button punctuates the cuffs design with a small point of light — lion-head details, adding one of Chanel’s most recognisable symbolic motifs to the knitwear

• Ribbed collar, cuffs and hem give the silhouette a clean frame and keep the softness under control

• The surface is embroidered throughout with Alpine-inspired floral motifs in red, pink, yellow and blue

• The flowers are deliberately bright against the cool blue ground, giving the piece a playful folk note without turning it into costume
