"CHANEL" 2000AW Karl Lagerfeld period calf leather vest

We would like to introduce you to some special pieces from CHANEL, a brand that has brought about changes in women's clothing, values, and lifestyles with its many innovative designs, and remains an object of desire for women even now, more than 100 years after its founding.

This masterpiece, an archive piece released during the AW 2000 Karl Lagerfeld era, is a product that symbolizes the era when CHANEL combined luxury and toughness.

The entire body is made of dark brown calf leather with a vintage finish, giving it a rich, aged appearance. Its unique matte sheen and three-dimensional grain develop a richer appearance with repeated wear, embodying the aesthetic of time.

The three-dimensional cut, which is precisely tapered from the structured shoulders to the waist, is reminiscent of Lagerfeld's sharp and sophisticated design aesthetic, and although it is a vest, it boasts the level of perfection of a jacket.

The front features metal buttons engraved with CHANEL, and their rugged silver tone accentuates the contrast with the leather. The "COCO CHANEL PARIS" engraving on the pocket flap also adds a statement as a timeless icon.

The tag reads "00A (Autumn/Winter 2000)," a collection line that Karl Lagerfeld created for the early 2000s, emphasizing "retro-futurism." Among his pieces that place emphasis on texture and structure, this masterpiece stands out as a "crossroads between classic and functional," truly making it a piece that represents the season.

This collectible piece embodies the unique value of its existence, conveying the "combination of strength and elegance" that CHANEL pursued at the time. It is a perfect piece for discerning wearers who wish to integrate archive items into their daily lives, and is a perfect way to embody the CHANEL aesthetic.

We recommend styling it over a supple knit or draped shirt to create a look that moves between the two extremes of ruggedness and delicacy. Not only can it be used as a layered item for autumn and winter, but you can also simplify the inner layer and tailor it like a leather top, or layer it over a minimalist coat or jacket, making it a seasonless main piece.

Please take this opportunity.
