Curatorial Description

— From the chiaroscuro dreamscape of Karl Lagerfeld’s — Paris in ROME 2016 Collection by Maestro Lagerfeld — this Chanel coat emerges as an artefact woven from cinema, Roman Empire heritage and shadowed eternity — As seen in the campaign and on Pharrell Williams, it transcends the confines of season and trend, becoming the vestment that exists beyond temporal dictates // Size mark 36 FR / Condition: never worn // • black and ecru tweed grid recalls the tessellated marble of Roman palazzos at dawn – each square a silent testament to geometry’s unbroken dominion over chaos • Silver-tone CC logo buttons engraved with Roman profile faces adorn its surface like scattered denarii – coins of invisible empires anchoring the garment within Chanel’s immortal codes • Finalized with tonal silk lining – a hidden floral scripture pressed against the skin
