Description
CHANEL. ‘2.55’ bag, circa 2012, 28cm: in black quilted distressed leather, with a rectangular swivel clasp in distressed silver-coloured metal known as ‘Mademoiselle’ on a double inner flap stitched with the double C motif. Adjustable Cambon chain strap in distressed silver-coloured metal. External pocket. Patch pocket on the back. Burgundy leather interior, 2 patch pockets and 1 lipstick loop. Hologram and certificate of authenticity, dust bag. Signs of wear, marks, stains, soiling, distortion. The Chanel 2.55 handbag was created by Gabrielle Chanel in February 1955. The number 2.55 represents the month and year of its creation, a habit the fashion designer adopted when naming her creations, as she also did with her perfumes, notably the highly famous Chanel No. 5. In reality, the 2.55 was born out of a practical need. Always finding her own handbags cumbersome, Coco Chanel came up with the idea of creating a shoulder bag, inspired by the military satchels of the time. This women’s shoulder bag was a true revolution, allowing it to be carried over the shoulder – an unusual way of carrying a bag in the luxury fashion world of the time. The 2.55 bag defined CHANEL’s iconic design codes: the quilted pattern and a chain strap with flat links. It stands out thanks to its finishing touch, a Mademoiselle clasp that is unique to this model. A little anecdote: The CHANEL 2.55 bag is sewn inside out, like a garment, in accordance with the original principles defined by Gabrielle Chanel in 1955. ‘Tired of carrying my bags by hand and losing them, I threaded a strap through them and wore them over my shoulder.’ Gabrielle Chanel
