Late 80s Asymmetrical Chanel Jacket With Chiffon Sleeves
A late 1980s Largerfeld period Chanel jacket with an asymmetrical hemline. Crossing over from the right side over the left with the right side being the shorter of the two and joining together with two rows of two hook and eye fastenings and one press stud at the waistband. The waistband itself gathers at both sides all the way around. Towards the bottom of the jacket is two large classic pockets sitting at the same height on both sides. The large collar was synonymous with the Largerfeld design at that period. With large lapels, this collar wraps around in a dramatic sense. A unique feature of this jacket is the chiffon sleeves, the contrasting transparency against the material of the jacket adds an interesting twist to an already unusual piece. Tying together the chiffon sleeves and the rest of the jacket are cuffs in the same material as the jacket with self-covered buttons.
Inside the jacket is the Chanel Boutique label and contents label.
