Love your choices! I got the navy jacket also. It is so cute on.
Oh gosh I can’t help you there. I figured since my SA was ordering in new sizes that it was current season but you may know better.
No I’m a relative newbie - hoping someone of the more knowledgable ladies will help explain. I’ve seen this in Chanel recently too so it must be current - but I think they can sell 4 seasons at a time - ? Is that right
Yes 20b would be from 2020. Stock is low so whatever they have is being put on the floor.
Jackets are great and timeless but has anyone ventured into Chanel winter coats ? This is from 21k.
I guess it’s climate dependent and only those with a proper winter to wrap up in might invest. Does anyone use Chanel as a daily coat? What are your thoughts on the cut of this one? It’s a loose fit but does it fit the Chanel look of elegance? They are very expensive so I’d guess you’d want to get some decent wear.

Yes, I’ve tried both. First one is cape-like, quite heavy. Second is beautiful but I’d not use it everyday.
Do you have any photos of them in real life? I guess I wouldn’t wear to work but perhaps in leisure time when out. Do you think they are classic pieces or likely to date with time?
Love all of these! Thank you so much for sharing them!
@Hanash, I collect coats and have a few chanel. The ones that are 100% cashmere have held up well for years. (I rotate all of my coats, so probably none have had very heavy usage) But, I would not be able or willing to buy at today’s prices bc i could not justify cost per wear. JMO though! I love the second pic you posted
yes it looks amazing - I couldn’t tell if the black coat was embellished or not as it seemed to have a sparkle but that might just be the lighting. Haven’t seen it being displayed so I guess they are made in small quantities.
The first coat has a cape version which I’ve seen so I know what the tweed is like - has a gold shimmer. But the cape felt very heavy on the hanger. I didn’t try as I m not sure a cape is that useful for me.
I’ve tried on the current season long cream coat - too narrow for me on the hips and too long so definitely a no- go. I agree re prices !!
I have a question on the following jacket - have any of you worn this jacket for a few times by now? I'm curious how this tweed has held up?
I also have another crazy idea - if people think the one-piece so impractical, why not cut the bottom and make it a fitted jacket? I know I'm overly caffeinated

I've worn this jacket on three occasions and both the tweed and sequins remain in excellent condition. I've not worn the jacket under a coat and most likely never will to avoid any fabric friction.
Sorry, I didn’t take photos! I think the black/white one is more classic. It’s a lovely coat.
Agreed, the black and white is lovely. I bought too many other pieces but if I were to add a coat, definitely the black and white.
The black and white jacket is beautiful. However, Chanel loves making uber long coats and they dwarf anyone with petite frames. If the coat was knee length I would have called my SA for it. The cape like coat is also quite long with a lot of volume. Again, will look amazing if you are tall.
