My thoughts on anything and everything CHANEL. From its legendary leaders to its iconic products and everything in between.

Offering both vamp-y drama and carefree ease, this look is perfection. A square neck bodysuit featuring bow detail across the chest and a subtle cutout is worn beneath a sheer, pleated ankle length skirt. Accessories include costume gold jewellery in instantly recognizable CHANEL motifs, black pumps and a black quilted clutch with gold chain. ROUGE NOIR lips complete the look.

A classic example of the CHANEL tweed suit being reinvented and reinterpreted. With seemingly pulled threads on the jacket and a fringed hem on the skirt, completely in graphic black and white, the look screams rock and roll. Accessorized with chain necklaces, a choker, fishnet stockings and black ankle booties, this is the outfit for the classiest of punk princesses.

Other than a tweed suit, this look is the quintessential CHANEL look – black trousers and a crisp white shirt. This one specifically reimagined by Karl Lagerfeld to feature a high-waisted slim leg, adorned with waist chains, one spelling out C H A N E L and a cropped white shirt with two breast pockets also spelling out C H A N E L across the top. Drop earrings, a classic red lip and sand between your toes complete the look!
