Soffieria De Carlini Fashion Lady, Blue Tweed Chanel
DC-DO7546Product Details
Although this is not the iconic Chanel Suit, this double-breasted tweed pattern coat is reminiscent of that sense of style. The high collar wraps to the side. The slim blue fabric hugs the hips and has 3/4 length sleeves. Eight buttons are the only decoration. A jaunty matching hat perches on her head. She wears a simple diamond bracelet on her wrist and carries a glittered pink clutch purse.
It was 1925 when Coco Chanel introduced her first suit. The wool set was simple with a boxy jacket in tweed, braid trim, four pockets, and no darts. It was paired with a mid-length straight-cut skirt. In its day it was nothing short of revolutionary!
