Lot Description
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.
Black wool and alpaca-blend coat with a black velvet collar and cuffs. The coat is cut with a stand collar, long sleeves, in-seam pockets over each hip, and a double-breasted button closure. The coat is embellished with six buttons at the back for decoration. The buttons on the front, back, and sleeve feature an American western-theme with a central star. The coat is lined with black silk woven with the CC logo and the words "Chanel rue Cambon". The coat is finished with a silver-tone chain sewn to the inside hem.
