Chanel Reissue 2.55 Classic Double Flap Quilted Aged 226 Black

Coco Chanel’s 2.55 debuted in February 1955 and unlike all other handbags before it, finally gave women a hands-free option by allowing them to carry a bag on their shoulder, revolutionizing fashion forever. Since its debut in 2005 for the brand’s 50th anniversary, the Reissue has become a Chanel staple appearing in several subsequent collections in various forms. This Chanel Reissue 2.55 in black lambskin leather remains one of the most popular items in the collection to date. Coming in size 226 with goldtone hardware and a mademoiselle turnlock closure, the bag has a single exterior pocket - where Coco was rumored to stash her cash - and opens opens to a burgundy leather interior, an ode to the color of the uniforms Coco wore at the orphanage she was raised in.
