HISTORY
The 2.55, introduced by Gabrielle Chanel in February 1955, redefined the modern handbag liberating it from hand-carry through the introduction of the shoulder chain. Rooted in utility yet elevated through material and construction, it remains one of the house’s most enduring designs.
This iteration extends that legacy through material experimentation. Tweed long associated with Chanel’s tailoring is reinterpreted here with sequined embellishment, merging the codes of daywear fabric with evening luminosity. The result reflects the house’s continued dialogue between practicality and ornament, where heritage textiles are recontextualised for contemporary expression.
