Yes GK. I think it's a very classic shape remade with lesage tweed. I suppose you can wear pink or green Tshirts/dresses under to bring more color out.
Your jacket however has buttons. I wish this Lesage has buttons too.
It's a very nice jacket, but somehow it doesn't give me as much "wow" as my Metiers coat...I'm still debating TBH.

I wish it had buttons. The hook and eye is a pain sigh !

This collection is very tempting and dangerous for me! Every jacket fit perfectly! To make things worse they still have the Metier D’art coat.
I bought the pink jacket, the gray pants- so rare for Chanel to make pants from fine wool, and the cardigan.
The long jackets are beautiful on. The button issue is still bothering me.
The little black top was nice, so I got it.
This greige blazer is amazing on, very flattering shape. I couldn’t take a picture as I tried it when I was going out. I’m thinking about it, most probably will get it. The lesage jacket is nice too. I didn’t try the KS jacket..

I love the lesage metiers coat the best. You look lovely in everything! I’m not keen on the straggly edges of the other black jacket.

Great photos and observations- so often I go in to try on a specific Chanel item and end up falling unexpectedly for another Chanel clothing treasure! All look lovely on you:-)

Thanks for sharing this pic! Even though you didn’t get it, it does look lovely on you. The fit is flattering but looks like it may be too long for me, may I ask how tall you are? I was interested in this jacket along with the greige blazer, but this black one does strike me as more of a coat and I’m looking for more of a jacket/blazer.

It had more of a weight of a coat, too. I’m 5’10 but wearing 3 inch heels in this photo, if that helps.

Assortment of random items/try on today. Observations:
1) Light pink from pre-fall is gorgeous, as you ladies observed. And, as you observed, the tinsel took me by surprise - felt kind of "festive", maybe too festive for everyday? but the shape, shade of pink, and overall fit were incredible.
2) Gray short coat - was one size too large for me (I'm a 38 and only 40 left) but I actually loved the oversized fit. The tailor said the shoulders and fit can be easily adjusted. I love the subtle shimmer in the gray and the fact the hood is removable, kind of like having 2 in 1.
3) Black denim with zipper at the ankle - fit was surprisingly nicely! not too high rise, stretchy yet holds you in in all the necessary places, if you know what I mean I was very tempted but only deterrent was the care label - because this is actually white denim dyed black, the care level stated color transfer was likely and not to wear with any light colors... 50%+ of my tops are white shirts, not sure how well I can manage with a high maintenance pair of denim
4) White top was incredible! Same one @ClassicTwist looks fabulous in. The buttons are hidden but are mother of pearl and are so lovely. I wonder if you can wear the top both ways, with the buttons at the back as intended and in the front (I didn't try in on this way because I only thought of it on my way out)
4) Skirt from cruise collection (they didn't have the matching jacket) - very nice but fit wasn't right on me. I'm sure this could be easily altered but without the matching jacket, there wasn't much wow.
5) White and black cardigans - both lovely! I liked the fit of the shorter one but wished it came in black (Does it? does anyone know?)
6) Pink jacket from the metiers collection stole my whole heart. My color palette is mainly black, white, and all shades of gray but this jacket was something else. I totally get what all the fuss is about

Thanks for letting me share!

Ah I wish I could swap the grey coat. I bought a 38 because there was no 40. My SA convinced me it was fine on the shoulders lol. I just had to get the sleeves taken up.
