It is a long sleeve version of Look 52 and in all other respects is the same as the runway presentation design. Anna Wintour felt that the 1996 Haute Couture collection marked a change in the industry, writing in her editor’s letter for Vogue that this collection “moved daringly and definitively away from the plain, minimal, and vulnerable look that has characterised so many clothes over the past five years”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven for haute couture, there is an incredible level of craftsmanship in this dress which took 140 hours to make plus over 200 hours for the embroidery. The renowned French atelier, Hurel, created and hand-worked the design for Chanel. We understand the price for this dress was over $100,000 and that was back in 1996. The fabric is a translucent silk-chiffon, the top half and the long-sleeves are in charcoal black, and the handkerchief-hem skirt is in a soft, warm white hue. The cloth is detailed with abstract geometric forms in fine chain-stitch embroidery in contrasting monochrome tones that fall the length of the dress. Every single one hand-embellished along the edges with tiny, rounded beads and we estimate several thousand to be present on the dress. The slim cuffs are finished with a band of black beaded embroidery and 6 dainty silk buttons. The elegant, playful skirt is tailored into flared, plumes of cloth which sway around the wearer as they walk. The body and top half of the skirt is lined with a black silk crêpe de chine slip, leaving the décolletage and arms sheer and allowing the skin to peek through. The dress fastens at the back with a hidden tonal zip. The label reads “CHANEL” in silver thread on a black background and is numbered underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis elegant evening gown is in excellent archival condition with no flaws of any note.

It has a sensuous bustier top which is tailored from matte black silk and panels of sheer black mesh. It is boned the whole way around, which cinches the silhouette, and is underwired at the bust. It has thin, flat straps also crafted from matte silk. The body is tailored from black wool with a subtle bouclé texture. The legs are wide and straight and fall to ankle length. The front of the bust is secured with a tonal black zip and the top of the trousers is fastened with a hidden tonal black zip, just under the zip. The trousers are lined with silk crepe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe jacket is a classic Chanel style. Boxy yet cut to follow the body’s natural curves, it sits against the bottom of the hip. It is collarless and is adorned with four patch pockets. Each pocket is detailed with a flap and each flap is embroidered with slanted, trompe-l'œil stitching which looks like braid. This intricate stitching also adorns the turned-up cuffs and front and bottom hems. The jacket fastens with hidden hook-and-eye clasps along the front. It is lined with matte black silk and the inside of the lower hem is lined with a gold-tone chain - a signature detail of the brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ensemble is in excellent archival vintage condition and is the exact version featured on the runway. Commissioned by a very special client, both pieces can be worn separately which add to the versatility of the set. Due to being couture made, it has no size or composition labels so please check our below measurements carefully as the fabric has no stretch. We estimate a good fit for a UK size 8-10 or US 4-6.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEASUREMENTS JACKET\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBUST - 38 in. (97 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWAIST - 34 in.

Pulling inspiration from the 1920s and 1930s and bringing the brand’s tailoring sophistication to a timeless shirt-dress silhouette, this piece is cut with a flattering nipped-in, gathered waist and an open-collar with wide lapels. The white cotton has a waffle texture, adding a sporty feel. The dress exclusively fastens at the front with polished, gold-tone circular buttons containing the brand’s instantly recognisable double-C insignia.

His trusted assistants, a young Hervé Leger and Eva Campocasso, were handpicked to design this Chanel ready-to-wear presentation. WWD reported that Lagerfeld knew Chanel needed to be pushed into modernity, and brought in many of his own people but he was also nothing if not respectful of the house’s legacy. He gently justified his changes, noting at the time: “Even if she never did it this way, it’s very Chanel, no?”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany of the garments featured the button design which was, and still is, unique to a particular Chanel collection. We have included a runway shot detailing the button design and a suit which matches this style in what appears to be the same fabric.

Gabrielle Chanel had past away in 1971 and several of her assistants led the design teams until 1982 when Karl Lagerfeld was appointed creative director.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis single strand sautoir was likely crafted by Robert Goossens, a long time jewellery collaborator with Chanel after she returned to Paris in 1954; it simply slips on over the head. The necklace is made up of glistening white seed pearls, threaded in spirals around gold-plated bars. The chain is formed of gold-plated twisted pieces which look like 'barbed wire' and the final adornment is the spherical gold-toned beads which are engraved in vertical lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdentifying early Chanel haute couture jewellery is a time-consuming and painstaking process. Jewellery pieces were often handcrafted and one-of-one; they were selected to go with the presentation outfits of a collection and were rarely retailed. This necklace has rare provenance and I purchased it directly from the vendor who's father had been a senior member of Chanel's financial management team in the 1970s and 1980s. It has been in Circa's collection for over 15 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in France, this necklace is in good archival vintage condition. Clearly an assembly of components, each have aged separately and the gold elements are slightly different tonally. This is more noticeable with the necklace in-hand than when worn. One of the wires linking a chain element may also be a discreet repair but this is tiny and very minor. The seed pearls are holding up well with minimal nacre loss. None of these issues detract when the item is being worn and this necklace can be both enjoyed by avid Chanel collectors and wearers of fine costume jewellery or couture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEASUREMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLENGTH - 43 in.

We have found a near-identical example documented with this collection, whose jewellery was designed by Eva Compocasso. It dates from the very beginning of Karl Lagerfeld’s tenure at Chanel and is an unusually early example of the elaborate multi-strand chain belts that would become increasingly important to the house throughout the 1980s and 1990s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost certainly gold-plated, the belt is constructed from substantial curb chain and has an unusual four-row arrangement across the front, with each strand graduating in length to create a layered drape over the waist.

The lion was a longstanding Chanel motif and a reference to Gabrielle Chanel’s zodiac sign, Leo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA longer single chain falls from one side and terminates in a large lion medallion, with the interlocking Chanel double-C logo embossed on the reverse. The belt fastens by hooking through this chain, allowing the length and amount of drape to be adjusted. The substantial hook is discreetly signed “CHANEL” in small capital letters. Chain belts became progressively heavier and more exuberant through the later 1980s and 1990s, frequently incorporating increasingly oversized coins, medallions and house motifs, making this early design a fascinating precursor to the style now so closely associated with Lagerfeld-era Chanel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe belt is in very good, verging on excellent, vintage condition. The chains retain their rich gold finish with no notable wear. There is some light tarnishing to the lion side of the largest medallion, consistent with age, but this does not detract when worn.

The collection drew on the colours, textures and crystalline formations of minerals, bringing an unusual depth and lustre to the house’s signature fabrics. Made in France, the dress is tailored from charcoal grey wool-blend tweed interwoven with metallic silver thread. Its relaxed A-line silhouette allows the richly textured fabric to take centre stage, balanced by slim-cut, full-length sleeves.

His approach combined an appetite for new ideas with a commitment to the specialist craftsmanship behind the clothes. During his tenure, Chanel began acquiring the artisan houses responsible for many of its intricate finishes, starting with button-maker Desrues in 1985. These skills helped give the collections their extraordinary attention to detail, with fastenings and embellishments considered as carefully as the cut and fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEASUREMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBUST - 38 in.
