Chanel RTW ~ Reveals, Chit-chat & Info thread

[911snowball]

The white pants we are thinking will go well with my very, very special spectacular blue jacket. I love this jacket so much and I know you all have heard my story about letting it go and then getting it back again. Also, my SA says it can go with the other jacket from greece collection and my ecru plaid one too (jacket pics are from my posts from years ago ). The pants are a very light tweed.

I have usually worn these jackets with skirts but the white pants will make them all look more casual and not to mention I will be more comfortable!

Thanks snowball ! This is fun- feel like I’m right there with you - had the same disappointment with the “shoulders” pink jacket and the long pink cardi- really wanted to love them but they didn’t work - I tried on the wrap coat that matches your blue tweed pants- it was oversized and reminded me of the 1930’s beach robes that glamorous movie stars used to wear. I suppose that ties in the the Rio aspect of that collection. Loved the fabric - I’ll have to check out the pants - there is a Chanel 19 bag in this fabric as well - just sayin’

Next, the much discussed pink jacket. The COLOR!!! They have not done such a spectacular pale pink tweed in so long!! It just is the PERFECT shade for me, so flattering for my skin tone. But, we tried and tried to figure out how to make this work but ladies, there is just no way I can handle this style. I am always up for extensive alterations but not possible here and leaving it behind made me so sad. Forgive the mismatched shoe situation, I was also slipping on different options my SA wanted me to try. I did get the taupe loafers- a very unique color.View attachment 5041617

The pink tweed look sooo gorgeous!

So many good pics and pieces snowball !! Love the basic pieces (basic seems like not the right term bc they are quite marvelous but you know what I mean hehe). I would love to hear more about how those strapped sandals fit and are they comfy.
I too was really sad about how the pink jacket fit. I think I probably could’ve made it work maybe but the price was just high
However I did get the call this arrived

TT, that coat looks rather elegant on you! This checked pattern is quite nice on, very spring and fresh. I am wondering what this most recent lockdown will mean for Chanel and what day to day living is like for our European TPF members. So much going on.
P, agree on the "basics" , they are are fabulous. Can't wait to see your pictures in pink! Why am I feeling this might just go home with you....

This is a size 44 but I wanted to show you the details up close. I really like this one and my size is coming soon. Comes in white too but I think the black offers more options. I like the contrast you see with whatever is underneath. TT, I am seeing this with the onyx 20... I think the price is a bit much but I really like the detail up close. Will look great dressed up or with jeans.

I too was really sad about how the pink jacket fit. The pink cardi came in. It’s a thinner cashmere than the dress. Very cute

This looks great on you!
If the long/dress version is heavier cashmere then maybe that partly accounts for its high price.

This is so pretty! Agree that the color underneath makes it more special with the details.

Thanks !! I also tried the spring strappy sandal. Sooo cute. The size was a little too small. Mr P loved the cardi and he liked the shoes haha. He is a bad influence.

P, adore that Mr. P is getting into this collection! I like the shoes on you, I think this heel height is really good- very wearable.
