Hmm, I'm reading everything about Chanel, and I'm a bit lost. What is chanel 2.55 and what is the caviar bag?...sorry if this is a stupid question :sweatdrop: Thanks always everyone!! I'm so glad I found this site!! :smile:
 
The Chanel 2.55 was the bag that Coco Chanel introduced in Feb 1955 (hence 2.55). It was reissued last year as a limited edition and was stamped. There was an unstamped reissue of the bag this year and I understand that there will be another version of this bag in the Cruise 2007 collection. The Classic flap (with the double Cs ) has also been referred to as the 2.55. This is my understanding....

Swanky?

it's very confusing, no worries!

That Reissue she posted pics of is slightly different than a Classic Flap - which comes in lamskin or caviar.
The Classic Flap has CC's on the lock/latch, unlike the Reissues' above.

They're all very similar though ;)
