25A try on. The black/white skirt set was pre-ordered after the show. The flare trousers in the second pic is not the matching pants as it has embossed cc and the trim is actually white and not ecru. The matching pants to the top has a straighter cut.

The blue tweed is really pretty but not my colour - the dress/vest is lovely. The black dress was a nice fit but am waiting to try the long version (price is not bad). How I love the burgundy on the knit set but don’t need more cashmere.

The brown/gold chinoiserie top was a surprise, had expected it to be too much/ageing but love it on and that it’s representative of this collection as it was inspired by one of the coromandel screens of Coco.
R u based in SG? I think we went to the same session!! 😆

@ari @880 - thank you for the feedback! I did try the dress bare shoulder, but I think it would require some tone-up on my part:P

Also tried the jacket with different outfit. I really like the color, but this is my first cropped jacket so still figuring out how to style it.

You look amazing and very svelte ! The color is great on your skin tone! :D

ETA: @Zixi1000 , My Chanel SA sometimes suggests wearing a longer blouse under
a cropped jacket, with pants or jeans. Not sure if that is your style, but it could be another option :)

I tried on this suit and absolutely HATED the collar at first!! The ruffles were proofed up and I looked like

Loved everything else about the suit but just couldn't get over the collar being so poofy.

My SA and the tailor at the store pinned the ruffles at the collar flat to show me how it is supposed to look and Voila! So much prettier. They will tack the ruffles flat for me, shorten the sleeves and take in the waist to taper the silhouette. But here is the suit with the ruffles pinned down by myself. (They shipped me the suit to try on.)

I’ve got these two sleeveless silk blouses after waiting for many collections. Camellias and peonies jacquard print are so cute. It’s so comfortable in hot climate area. I could wear it as a shirt inside blazer.

Congrats! these blouses are fantastic, I think Chanel does less and less of them, they come in different colors, pale green and this light turquoise that I got to go with my jacket. They run big.

I love the dress on you, you can wear in different ways!
Is the jacket a bit big on you, or you like it this way? For me I find that cropped jackets look best with wide pants or flared skirts. Try different styles to see what suits you best! I tried it with these jeans, but I’m still wondering if they are a bit small on me.

I love the suit on you , these collars look best with short hair or you need to put your hair up. Good decision to fit the jacket more, looks way better!
