Chanel Reissue 226 Double Flap Bag

The Chanel Reissue Bag is a true French classic, re-released in 2005, having been initially designed by Coco Chanel herself in 1955. This is the bag from which the Classic Flap was born, and was indeed the first handbag to be carried by upper class woman on their shoulders. The glossy patent leather adds a luxurious touch, while the deep purple finish completes the glamorous look. A dreamy and classic closet staple, the Reissue is truly a timeless piece.
