Chanel Apres Coco

We love Karl Lagerfeld for his brilliant reworking of iconic design elements of Coco Chanel into something new and viable year after year and for having a sense of humor about it. 

This sumptuous midnight blue velvet gown has a very grand feeling of the Madame X in the painting by Sargent but made lighter and more whimsical by the attached oversized pearl 'necklace'. A slit on the side is topped by a velvet bow.  

1980s Chanel midnight blue velvet gown with attached oversize pearl 'necklace'. Size 6/8.
