‘2.55 Reissue’ Double Flap Shoulder Bag
2.55 Reissue Quilted Leather Double Flap Bag. Authentic quality luxury bag crafted in genuine leather comes with authenticity card, dust bag and gift bag. Reimagined Elegance: Celebrating Legacy with The 2.55 Reissue.
In February 2005, Karl Lagerfeld paid tribute to Coco *anel by re-creating the iconic 2.55 handbag, as it was originally designed by her in 1955. This special edition, named Reissue, commemorated the bag’s 50th anniversary. Lagerfeld incorporated thoughtful details that reflected Coco Chanel’s personal history, notably her time spent in an orphanage. The bag was adorned with a double chain, reminiscent of the keychains that her caretakers would carry. To further honor her past, the interior of the bag was dyed in a brownish-red hue, symbolizing the color of the children’s uniforms. Additionally, Lagerfeld added a concealed zip compartment beneath the front flap, mirroring Coco’s habit of hiding her cherished love letters in that very spot. The outside back flap of the 2.55 Reissue discreetly alludes to where Coco would discreetly store her money.
