"CHANEL" 16AW Tulle Lace Design Ribbon Brooch

We will introduce iconic masterpieces from CHANEL, a brand that has brought about changes in women's clothing, values, and lifestyles with its many innovative designs, and is still an object of desire for women even more than 100 years after its founding.

This exquisite piece is made of lustrous, shimmering satin layered with delicate lace, creating a ribbon brooch that elegantly adorns the face as its volume unravels from the knot.

The ribbon is made of a firm satin base with soft tulle lace layered on the front and back, the contrast between matte and glossy creates depth, and the edges are slightly folded back to create a clear outline. A small metal Coco mark is discreetly placed at the end, subtly punctuating the outfit.

The pin metal fittings on the back allow for smooth opening and closing, and the oval plate is engraved with "CHANEL," "16A," and "MADE IN FRANCE," giving the bag a sense of authenticity as a piece from the Fall/Winter 2016 collection. The fact that it comes with the box and booklet is also a welcome added value as a collector's piece.

The 2016 Autumn/Winter period, indicated by the 16A stamp, was a time when accessories based on black and featuring layered textures were in abundance, and the combination of a two-layered satin and lace construction, the contrast between glossy and matte, and the understated black metal Coco mark neatly embodied the mood of the time, highlighting the value of this accessory as a single piece that adds presence without disrupting the tone of an outfit.

The sheen of the satin and the shading of the lace change with your movements, making it a versatile piece that doesn't overpower your outfit, but can elevate the overall look with just one piece. The overlapping ribbons are thick enough to securely fasten everything from thin blouses to the lapels of sturdy coats, making it an appealing piece that can be worn across seasons and occasions. For those who want to add a touch of elegance to their everyday outfits, this is a comfortable piece that balances elegance and refinement.

As for styling, adding a lace accent to the lapel of a tailored jacket in place of a tie will create a three-dimensional effect around the neckline, highlighting its genderless elegance. Another idea is to wear it under the first button of a high-neck knit or clean band collar shirt, and complete the vertical lines with a long skirt or center-pressed trousers; the shadows of the lace will balance the center of gravity of the upper body, beautifully achieving a balance between classic and modern.

Please take this opportunity.
