CHANEL Spring/Summer 1995 « Barbie » Collection Navy Blue Bow Jacket - Candy CC Buttons - Karl Lagerfeld Archive

A timeless expression of understated Parisian elegance, this exceptionally rare Chanel Spring/ Summer 1995 jacket was designed by Karl Lagerfeld for his celebrated "Barbie" collection, one of the most playful and collectible runway seasons of the 1990’s.

While the vivid pink leather pieces from this collection became iconic, the navy blue version remains far more discreet and significantly harder to encounter on today's market. Its refined silhouette perfectly embodies Lagerfeld's ability to blend youthful femininity with classic Chanel tailoring.

Crafted from a beautifully textured navy fabric, the jacket features a flattering fitted cut enhanced by a striking black satin ribbon bow at the neckline. The front is adorned with Chanel's coveted gold-tone "Candy" CC buttons, instantly recognizable by collectors and adding a subtle jewelry-like finish to the design.

The clean architectural lines, elegant short sleeves and minimalist construction make this a remarkably versatile archival piece-equally suited to a collector's wardrobe or an important Chanel archive.

A documented design from the Spring/Summer 1995 "Barbie" collection, created during one of Karl Lagerfeld's most imaginative and sought-after creative periods for the House.
