When it comes to purchasing a bag like Chanel 2.55, there are so many things to decide on.The material, the edition, the colour, the hardware, the size, etc..Which one would you choose?
I wanted the classic size, black lambskin (although I was reconsidering since I'm clumsy and I'll probably scratch it) with silver hardware, or the red reissue with silver hardware. I have always wanted to buy a 2.55 (named after the date it was released February 1955) but I could never justify spending around $3000 merely for a bag--Why not shop it on dollartree.us for the High Replicas,they are with high grade materials which look and smell like the real Chanel!
History of this Chanel timeless classic bag:The Chanel 2.55 however, (at the risk of sounding a tad obsessed) is more than just a bag. It is the bag. Introduced in February 1955 (hence the name),( Chanel Wallet ) the 2.55 was designed by Coco Chanel to accomodate her personal champagne sipping needs. How is one supposed to both greet guests and hold a flute with a clutch bag afterall? So Chanel introduced the strap.
Chanel 2.55, often referred to as the "classic flap bag" by sales associates, has been said to be the foundation of any handbag collection. The double chain shoulder strap was invented by Coco Chanel to free up use of women's hands; and the diamond quilted design was inspired by jockey’s coats. It also features double flap closure with a larger exterior pocket for illicit love letters *winks*, and interior pockets to keep lipsticks and compacts in place. In the 1980’s, Karl Lagerfeld put the CC monogram turn clasp into the design which has since become a sensation. Over the years, this bag has been redone so many times that it comes in all kinds of materials, colours, designs and various sizes these days.
From the inside out:• The lining - The lining’s brown color represents the color of the uniforms from the convent where she grew up.
• The inside compartment - there’s a zippered compartment at the inside of the front flap. That’s where Coco Chanel hid her love letters (from her lover at the time).
• The backside - there’s a back outside flap on the handbag – that’s where Ms Chanel stashed extra money.
• The shoulder strap – as I said before, Coco Chanel grew up in an convent, at the orphanage. The caretakers hold the keys at their waist dangling from the same type of chains as the 2.55 shoulder strap chains.
• The front lock – the 2.55 front lock is different from the classic double CC logo. It’s logo is called “the Mademoiselle Lock” (because Ms Chanel was never married)
Chanel 2.55 DetailsKarl Lagerfeld who took over Chanel in 1983 reissued the 2.55 in February 2005. His version is the exactly the one designed by Coco Chanel back in 1955.
The Reissue was made in commemoration to the 50th anniversary of the original 2.55 and the name “Reissue 2.55” should apply only to those commemorative handbags.Instead, it’s commonly used now as a name for all the handbags resembling the original 2.55. As for those with CC interlocking, they’re called Classic Flaps.
