One in a series on the clothes that had a big moment at Paris Fashion Week. You can find several types of CHANEL Clothing online: Jackets, Tops and Dresses choose the one that suits your needs.

To weigh the jacket down and make it hang perfectly straight around the body at all time, Coco Chanel added a chain to the jacket’s interior at the hem. Since his appointment, Lagerfeld has continued to reference the Chanel style, sometimes offering classic interpretations and replica versace rings at other times making witty and ironic statements.
