Chanel vintage tweed blazer, circa 2000 by Karl Lagerfeld - authentic

Karl Lagerfeld recasts Chanel’s hallmark tweed blazer with a sculpted, more modern silhouette in this archival 2000 piece. The seaming on the jacket is cut to contour & sharpen the figure. The tweed weave blends apricot, white & sandy ecru in a luminous classic pattern. Interior chain-link details & metal buttons (simply stamped ‘Chanel Paris’) accent the placket & cuffs like industrial hardware, grounding the softness with an unexpected, fierce edge. Around this period, Lagerfeld spoke of bridging couture discipline w/ modern ease—his Resort collections often stripping formality down to essentials. This vintage tweed blazer - in such great shape btw - really reflects that pivot at the dawn of Y2K. A classic statement piece that feels just as effortless & current today. Size on tag: 36FR approx. S Excellent vintage condition; very minor signs of wear consistent w/ age. Includes the original swatch for exterior tweed fabric & interior silk lining Measurement estimates available upon request
