Chanel Skirt Suit and Jacket, 1985-90s

After four decades at Chanel, Lagerfeld earned a legacy as a creative force that reinvigorated the heritage label, infusing it with postmodern playfulness while honoring its roots. Equally versed in the languages of popular culture and the craft and traditions of couture, a combination described as ‘high fashion and high camp’, Lagerfeld’s reinvention of the brand and marketing savvy created a voracious appetite among young buyers, sealing the fate of the iconic double CC logo into this century’s visual lexicon.

This lot contains three Chanel pieces.

THE FIRST
Orange satin and black velvet cardigan style jacket with four gold and black enamel clover buttons. The matching skirt has a panel of orange satin on the interior to give the allusion that the skirt is lined in orange satin.
