Chanel RTW ~ Reveals, Chit-chat & Info thread

[Sakura198427]

I have a few Chanel summer dresses that look similar. It's a stretchy knit, correct? If this is like mine, hey can be dry cleaned just fine. I wouldn't attempt washing at home.

Yes, it is stretchy. I've just never owned any clothing made out of such a complicated knit fabric

Ahhh I was just reading my Martha Stewart living at the time I saw your comment Snowball! Had a laugh

congrats on the sparkly cardi !!!I loved it when I saw it. It’s a special piece. Did they make a longer version ? I was told no. It will be great over dresses

So I bought the cropped ivory cardi! Totally unplanned, but my SA had my size to try. It’s truly so beautiful and thick and warm. It’s also lined in silk. I took some quick action shots and some close up details. True to size for me, though arms are thick as it’s cashmere. I see this over a dress in evenings. It’s a very special piece, though maybe the sequins may catch and pull on some cashmere details? Time will tell.View attachment 5048284View attachment 5048285View attachment 5048286View attachment 5048287View attachment 5048288 I’m thrilled to add this to my closet.

Incredibly beautiful and downright magical - looks perfect on you
Please don’t just save it for special occasions
Wear it often and treasure it
Thank you for sharing these photos !

These spring-summer precollection denim tops finally arrived at my boutique! I think they're the cutest pieces, even though I have concerns about the fit on my body type. There's another customer trying these on right before me, so posting these photos now in case they sell out. If they do...oh well, there's always next season.

Photos from my SA. I added some style photos from Insta and editorial. I'd style it over a neutral top like the 3rd pic. It might be too trendy for me, but I won't know until I try!

Hello! How adorable is this Chanel denim crop top? Hope that you get a chance to try it and that it works out for you. I can see how and why it might sell out.
When I was younger this is just the sort of special piece I’d save for to buy and then build an entire summer / warm weather wardrobe around!!
The rest of your coordinating items don’t have to be expensive - let this be the jewel in your summer season- you could wear it over a fitted t shirt dress - mini or midi- over the top of a cotton shirt dress or even an off the shoulder gauzy summer dress-
Maybe with a fitted tank or t with capris or distressed denim? Maybe wear it over your bikini top at the beach with board boy shorts?
Or perhaps a founcy skirt- cotton or denim or maybe a feminine Liberty of London pattern top or skirt?
So many options
So much fun
As it’s denim with each washing it will just get better - softer and more loved - more special.
Wear it often
Wear it anywhere- even over pastel washed silk separates -
Please come back to share pictures of how you decide to make it uniquely yours!

Has anyone bought or tried on these black pants? Are they true to size or should I size up? I’ll be buying them remotely without trying them on. Thanks View attachment 5048176

I’m curious also! Please do post after you get them.

Went to the store a few days ago and tried a couple of things on, not a lot of pieces have arrived (well...at least it didn’t trickle down to non-vic like me ) and not many sizes are available. Here are a few photos on the pieces I’ve tried.


The white blazer has a nice cutting and the bow makes it a bit more feminine, but really disappointed at the material of the jacket, was hoping it’s more ‘special’ fabric.





tried on a size 38 and way too small , waiting for my size to come in!


the store happen to have a 38 for me to try. I love this jacket after trying it on and the dropped shoulder gave it a casual look! Anyways, it’s just too expensive for me......



The very sort after pink vest (in my location). More of a casual look, fits my lifestyle (for the foreseeable future with the pandemic) and it seems much more easier to style. My SA recommended a lighter tank top or t-shirt inside, but I thought the black tank top looks okay with this colour.

The vest and tweed jacket look awesome. did you get the pink vest? Too cool

Jean top:
I think it should be worn without a shirt under...probably more suitable for younger women with abs to show off...the entire Zara website is flooded with such styles this season. It is indeed very trendy.
If I were 6' tall 120lb I would do it!

Looks like Lesage. Re cleaning My advice is don’t get it dirty.

How can we identify Gracekelly? I'd love to learn!
