The 2.55 is more than a bag — it’s a turning point in fashion history. In February 1955, Coco Chanel broke with convention by designing a shoulder bag that liberated women from the clutch. It featured quilted leather inspired by jockey coats, a hidden zipper pocket for love letters, and the now-iconic Mademoiselle lock, named after Coco herself, who never married.
Exactly 50 years later, in 2005, Karl Lagerfeld reissued the original design to mark its anniversary. Staying true to Coco’s intent, he brought back the all-metal chain strap and rectangular turn-lock, stripping away the CC logo in favor of quiet elegance.
This rare 2014 edition in bold orange caviar leather pairs the legendary silhouette with a fresh, vibrant twist. With ruthenium hardware, double flap construction, and the classic “Mona Lisa” back pocket, it’s a piece that bridges past and present — a collector’s gem with lasting relevance.
