Chanel Sleeveless Black Cocktail Dress Camellia Laser Cut Bomber Jacket Set,
Chanel is seemingly timeless. From the classic to the modern, the lines are blurred ensuring fashions that can be stylishly worn in the past, present, and future. From the Cruise 2009 collection, this cocktail dress is done in a jet-black silk jersey. An angled empire bodice is complimented by the draped skirt that accents centre front with soft, radiating folds that sweep around to a loose gathering on the back. Holographic poly latex straps and hem border introduce a futuristic element to this otherwise traditional cocktail look.
This previous owner of this dress upped the ante and styled this cocktail dress with a removable white camellia pin and laser cut poly-silk bomber jacket from the Spring 2009 collection. The jacket has a relaxed fit and features a floral laser cut motif. A standing collar and raglan sleeves that finish with cuffs paired with sleek round buttons engraved with the Chanel logo, give an edgy and masculine vibe to this jacket making it a perfect pairing with the cocktail dress. Excellent as an ensemble or as separate, a variation of the cocktail dress can be seen on the Cruise 2009 runway as look #62.
The cocktail dress is fully lined in silk and closes at centre back with a concealed zip while the jacket is fully lined in white which makes the floral cut motif pop. Both the dress and the jacket are in excellent condition and have been professionally eco dry cleaned and pressed. High-quality vintage pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.
