• From the Act 1 Fall/Winter 2019 Chanel collection. This is the collection done for shops between the pre-collection and the runway shows. These are often specialized items that are made on an extremely limited basis.
• Made under the creative direction of Karl Lagerfeld
• The buttons on this one are so special. They are little snowflakes on a carved backdrop mixed with rhinestones. They are meant to evoke winter and when combined with the knit, the feel of being warm and cozy, nestled inside from the ice and snow on a winter's day.
• There are five larger buttons down the front and then a slightly smaller version sits on each pocket and at each cuff.
• Even though the sweater at first glance looks like it is made out of Angora, Chanel actually does not use Angora. Instead it is made out of a blend of cashmere and alpaca. This is a very expensive to produce, time consuming process and a amazing technical achievement in fabric.
• The colour is a pale baby blue and even though we have tried to capture it as closely as possible here it is even better in person. It is the kind of piece that makes you gasp out loud when you see it.
  
• It has a slightly cropped feel to it and I love the two little pockets on the front.
• It buttons to close down the front and the pockets are functional but each is still lightly tacked shut as it came from Chanel.
• It has its original Chanel packet with extra yarn inside and its original Chanel tag. It appears to be unworn.
• This is a very rare and special Chanel piece especially in this pristine a condition.
• The knit has some stretch and I have put the un-stretched, laying flat measurements below.
• Tagged a Chanel 38

• A gorgeous little Chanel Scottish cashmere skirt from the 1990s.
• Made under the creative direction of Karl Lagerfeld
• The colour is this interesting colour that lies somewhere between a deep ivory with a bit of taupe that has a touch of a soft green undertone. It makes for an amazing neutral.
• It has a ribbed waistband and then it is made to appear as if it wraps and closes down one side at the front.
• It flares out slightly at the hem and is quintessentially '90s in feel.
• It has fabulous gold tone buttons running down the front that have a lucky four leaf clover at their centre. Each button has the Chanel logo engraved on the back.
• Very easy to wear piece you just slip it on and go.
• No size tag present so please check measurements. The fabric does have stretch and I have given the stretch of the waist.

• From the Cruise 2019 Chanel collection. It was a shop piece based on the rainbow stripe pieces shown in the collection, most notably Looks 33 and 34.
• Made under the creative direction of Karl Lagerfeld
• In Vogue's review of the show, they noted that "The clothes read both as a sentimental journey around the ’80s, when Lagerfeld began designing for the house, and of the signatures—quilting, tweed, sailor pants, pearls, Scottish cashmeres, camellias—that Gabrielle Chanel brought to fashion in the first place."
• Made out of one of those Scottish cashmeres referenced above and it is exquisite.
• The colour is a pale ivory and then it has a rainbow of soft pastel stripes that form the famous Chanel logo on the front and on each sleeve.
• It slips over the head with ribbing at the collar, cuffs and around the waist.
• It has a slightly cropped feel to it and the sleeves balloon out fantastically over the cuffs
• It has its original Chanel packet with extra yarn inside and appears to be unworn. The colours are even better in person. 
  
• The knit has some stretch and I have put the un-stretched, laying flat measurements below except for the bottom ribbing for which I did the comfortable range when laying flat. 
  
• Tagged a Chanel 34

• This jacket is from the Spring 2006 collection and it is a beautiful classic and timeless Chanel jacket. 
  
• Make it under the creative direction of Karl Lagerfeld
  
• The collection was called "Coco meats, James Dean" and the idea was that Lagerfeld organized this imaginary meeting between the two. In real life they had never met but in his eyes he saw them as being rebellious figures and wanted to explore the meeting of the two stylistically.
• The jacket has a gorgeous woven feeling to it tweed exterior and is a mix of silk and cotton.
• The shoulders have very light padding but are soft and shaped to the body and the sleeves are slightly cropped. Each sleeve has a fringe finish to it.
• The collar is scooped with the same fringe finishing and then the jacket closes down the front with hand made buttons to look like wax seals. A double C has been stamped into each button.
• Two tiny top set pockets sit on each side and these also have a fringe finish.
• The jacket has elaborate vertical seaming that pieces all of the panels together to give shape to the jacket.
• Triangle inserts have been done all the way around the hem so that it flares out with this fabulous little peplum. The bottom hem of the jacket is finished in fringe.
• Inside it is lined with a meticulous black silk that follows the pattern of the jacket. There is a signature silver chain that runs around the inner hem.
• Tag a Chanel 38

• The twin of this dress walked the runway for Look 86 that season and was shown on the runway with a black lace top underneath and adorned with added brooches down the front for the Paris-Salzburg Metiers d'Art show.
• Under the creative direction of Karl Lagerfeld
• The Metiers d'Art presentations are always a celebration of the amazing craftsmanship and talent of the Chanel Artisans.
• Vogue stated that "The lace and ribbons and elaborate sleeve details of Winterhalter's portraits of Sissi (Empress Elisabeth of Austria), became part of the Chanel vocabulary in this collection." 
• Black silk straps curve over each shoulder and run around the top edge of the bodice. Three more circle around the bodice for added detail and four bows run prettily down the front.
• Three more rows of the same silk ribbon circle the bottom hem to tie everything together perfectly
• Softly pleated silk chiffon sits between each of the rows on the top of the dress.
• The waist nips in and the skirt is set in soft vertical pleats so that it opens up and has pretty volume by the time it reaches the hem
• The fabric used in the skirt is ultra fine and is almost like a silk gauze. It's has a touch of transparency, and the dress comes with its original silk organza under skirt that's you wear underneath the dress
• The entire hem is edged in another wide panel of the same lace used for the shoulders
• A little silver metal and bead encrusted Chanel logo sits on one hip
• Fully lined through the bodice in a black silk. The skirt is unlined and you wear the matching double layer silk organza underskirt underneath.

• A gorgeous and striking piece that can be worn as a jacket or a dress.
• Made under the creative direction of Christian Lacroix 
• The piece zips up at the front and fully opens. This is why it can play double duty as either a dress or a jacket.
• The fabric has a black backdrop and then has beautiful flowers woven through it in a deep red and an almost purple colour.
• It has no collar and the front is detailed with a wide band on either side of the zipper that has a swooping pattern made out of a cord applied onto the fabric. This panel extends down the back with more cording there as well.
• The waist is brought in and seamed and then the skirt under that is pleated into that seam. This allows it to be very full.
• Little pockets sit on each side of the hip so you can put your hands into the pockets and exaggerate the fullness of the skirt even more.
• The sleeves are wonderful. They are set into a slightly dropped shoulder and widen out to be quite wide by their ends.
• It is lined in a black silk and there is light rounded padding in each shoulder for shape. It zips to close at the front.
• Tagged a IT40, FR38, GB32, US6

• Valentino launched his ready-to-wear label in 1962 just two years after opening his first salon in Rome. He often brought in the designs that he created for his main couture label into the boutique work. In these early days pieces were remarkably close in quality and the line between the two labels was often blurred. 
• Made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino
• The top is made out of a bright pink silk that has a ribbon effect worked into the fabric for added texture.
• The cut is boxy and generous through the body for an easy fit. The sleeves are also cut generously and end with a buttoned cuff.
• The neck is ruffled with black velvet piping looped through the ruffles. They tie stacked on top of each other for a really pretty and dramatic effect.
• The top is unlined and closes at the front with a series of hidden set buttons. There is the shell of padding in each shoulder but it feels like the actual padding has been removed.
• There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements below. The top is meant to feel more loose and generous.
• Excellent condition

• The twin of the dress walked the runway for the Spring 1997 Chanel show and was worn in that show by supermodel Naomi Campbell.
• Made under the creative direction of Karl Lagerfeld.
• The models in the show walked down a conveyor belt and the finale was an explosion of sequin dresses in a full range of pastel shades.
• This dress and the other dresses in the finale were all covered in clear sequins and silver metal thread embroidery. Karl told Women's Wear Daily "It's like ice crushed velvet. There are more than 40 different dresses like this in these very fresh very pale colours. It's Summer ice in glacier velvet"
• This is an exceptionally rare and important dress from the collection.
• The velvet that the dress is made out of is has an almost slight neon metallic feel to it but in a subtle way. And instead of being soft, the pile that makes up the velvet is all standing directly straight out from the fabric which gives it a very unusual, almost bouncy, feel
• Clear iridescent sequins that are held in place with metallic silver thread run around the neck, are scattered over the bodice, heavily detail all around the waist and then run down the sides of the dress and are applied densely all the way around the hem.
• The dress has a high neck and the holes for the arms at the side are scooped slightly lower then usual. The waist is defined but more generous and then the dress curves over the hips to flare out slightly at the hem. A slit runs up one side of the hem
  
• The dress is a more pastel bubblegum pink in person then how it photoed.
• Hand finishes throughout and all of the sequin work appears to be applied by hand.
• It closes at the back with a hidden set zipper and three Chanel logo embossed buttons at the back of the neck
• Tagged a Chanel 38
