I was told you just need a RTW purchase history to order by phone. I think it’s basically so your SA can try to avoid cumbersome returns or exchanges that they may not have in stock. But, sizing at Chanel is more variable than the old days; and I believe size 49/50 are pretty limited and may go very quickly.

It’s also my understanding that an SA has to do substantial requests in writing (that can take up some time, effort, and in some cases, horse trading ) to get some sizes and styles into the boutique, and they don’t want to do that for clients they don’t know.

I generally don’t make special requests or remote, as I prefer to walk in mid season and take my chances. For stuff like sale or special events, it’s my limited understanding that SAs may only be able to nominate a very limited number of clients, so (at least for sale) if i know I’m unlikely to buy much, I tell my SA to pass me over.

It’s possible that Saks or bergdorfs might be able to help more than a standalone boutique if an SA on the ground knows you.

I just got a Chloe bananas t shirt that I think would be good with Chanel tweed pants to take them down a notch. Here are the latest sale pants and the t shirt

Thanks for posting this. I think she looks great though I still don’t understand rompers. I was puzzled when reading comments complaining about her dressing in costly Chanel to go to a football game. While I’m not a TS fan, she’s a celebrity who gives a lot to charity; she can afford chanel; and she should do what she wants. :)

Sharing the only pic I have for 25P, light orange cardigan with all the fancy embellishments that arrived after launch day. Unfortunately my local boutiques didn’t order the simpler version and I absolutely loved this colour, so it went home with me. Also bought the white pearl jacket, jeans, a multicolour vest with silvery trims, light grey/navy berms and camel tank top. There wasn’t time for photos on launch day as fitting room schedule was tight. Other clients who couldn’t get a fitting room were changing in secluded corners outside the fitting room, the first time I’ve seen on launch day - they should bring back pre launch for VICs. It’s a mayhem when they stopped doing that locally because stocks are too low to do a pre launch but it doesn’t make sense. Almost couldn’t get my hands on any pair of jeans because other clients were trying them outside the fitting room before my SA got her hands on one piece they let go.
