Chanel’s brown paper wrapper
Chanel’s brown paper wrapper. I’ve seen bags of scotch arrive more nicely packaged. Okay, I realize Karl must reign in the budget somewhere, but hey,
what’s with the presentation. His face creams get more pomp and circumstance than this $6K PLUS jacket.
Act 2 continues, while the jacket itself is a lovely fantasy tweed of denims — great with jeans (but so are GAP Tee shirts and you’d save about $5950), but truly lacking enough verve to merit…well, even a Chanel box?
The style features a modified bracelet length sleeve, single breasted front and mildly mandarin tailored hem. I guess I should be happy it wasn’t delivered with postage due.

RETURN IT. That is not an acceptable manner to receive an item of the worth. I live in Paris. If this is purchased on the Rue Cambon, it would be given to the buyer with the hanger and garment cover. To deliver this item in a fashion such as this is bizarre. Who is responsible at this Chanel? They should be starved.
A happy juxtaposition of color and texture, crafted into a garment unfortunate in both shape and style, distinguished only by it’s tariff and by being unflattering to it’s (obviously lovely) wearer in the extreme. The disappointment of the paper wrapping was an apt harbinger of the surprise inside.
