In the dynamic landscape of fashion, Chanel consistently finds ways to reiterate its heritage while speaking to the present moment. The arrival of the new #CHANEL25 handbag is the latest chapter in this ongoing dialogue. Both elegant and functional, this beautiful accessory promises to be an excellent day-to-night companion.
For one thing, Chanel reminds us that pockets are far from mere afterthoughts in its design vocabulary. Instead, tracing back to Mademoiselle Chanel’s vision to liberate women’s movement, they function as intrinsic symbols of freedom and modernity. By incorporating two side pockets, essentials stay easily accessible.
Of course, no Chanel bag would be complete without the brand’s house codes, and the Chanel 25 is no exception. The hobo bag integrates beloved signatures, such as the unmistakable quilting that lends its structured softness and visual rhythm. Another is the celebrated CC clasp that’s emblematic of the brand’s enduring legacy.
Not forgetting the iconic chain strap interwoven with leather or denim to correspond with the bag’s body. This element not only gives it a quintessential Chanel look and feel. It also offers a way to carry the versatile bag comfortably over the shoulder or simply in hand.
Acknowledging that individual needs and styles vary, the Chanel 25 debuts in three sizes. The small measures 30 cm by 26 cm, while the medium comes in at 40 cm by 30 cm. Finally, the large size measures a roomy 42 cm by 36 cm.
A design mindful of transitions, be it going from office to evening, or errand to event, the Chanel 25 easily adapts. Prices for this soon-to-be modern classic start at SGD8890.
