Exceptional Chanel Spring 2016 navy blue metallic fantasy tweed jacket, designed by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel. From Lagerfeld’s celebrated Spring/Summer 2016 collection, this striking jacket reinterprets the house’s legendary tweed tailoring with a graphic, richly textured weave and subtle metallic shimmer.
The elaborate fantasy tweed combines shades of navy blue, cobalt blue, black and metallic silver, creating remarkable dimension throughout the fabric. The textile is composed of 37% polyester, 29% acrylic, 26% nylon, 6% metallized polyester and 2% cotton, giving the traditional Chanel tweed a distinctly modern finish.
Cut in a fitted double-breasted silhouette, the jacket features rows of beautiful blue and silver-tone CC logo buttons across the front. Additional Chanel buttons accent the structured shoulder tabs, giving the jacket a subtle military-inspired quality. Wide overlapping lapels can be arranged in different ways, allowing the neckline to change depending on how the jacket is styled.
Three-quarter-length sleeves balance the elongated, gently shaped silhouette, while the lower front features tailored flap pockets. The combination of strong shoulders, a defined waist and longer hip-skimming length creates an exceptionally flattering interpretation of the classic Chanel jacket.
Fully lined in silk and finished with Chanel’s signature weighted chain sewn along the interior hem, a traditional house detail designed to help the jacket hang beautifully on the body.
The deep navy palette makes this considerably more versatile than many statement Chanel tweeds. Wear it with tailored black trousers and heels for evening, over a silk blouse with denim for an elevated daytime look, or with a slim skirt and pumps for a modern interpretation of classic Chanel dressing. The metallic threads catch the light without making the jacket overtly dressy, allowing it to transition easily from day to evening and across seasons.
Designed during Karl Lagerfeld’s legendary tenure at Chanel, this is an especially collectible example of his ability to take the codes established by Gabrielle Chanel and continually reinvent them through innovative textiles, proportions and hardware.
