HAUTE COUTURE: Multi-Color Tweed Ensemble

£2,000

A stunning, four-piece Haute Couture ensemble from CHANEL, circa 1970. The set comprises a jacket, blouse, and skirt. It is crafted from a vibrant, multi-color fantasy tweed woven from silk and wool, featuring hues of yellow, buttercup, violet, orange, blue, and taupe in a check motif. This piece bears the iconic white Haute Couture label and an internal number (N°27458).

The rarity of a multi-piece Haute Couture ensemble, especially from the 1970s, generates a massive emotional charge. I am captivated by the joyous color palette and the textural complexity of the fantasy tweed. We see this as a museum-quality Mementos & Curiosities item, celebrating the unparalleled craftsmanship and enduring genius of the world’s most influential fashion house.
