Throughout time, the “matelassé” effect has become indissociable with Chanel style. This mythic motif’s legend is written in a dotted line. It’s said that Gabrielle was inspired by her afternoons spent at the races; there, the jackets of the race jockeys purportedly captured her aesthetic eye. Others tell of an inspiration that originally came from the cushions on her rue Cambon couch, or perhaps the stained glass windows of the Aubazine abbey. The important thing is innovation: this motif has been released on leather boots and shoes, or chosen to embellish the branches of certain styles of sunglasses without having to mention the 2.55, icon of an entire generation. Sometimes, these rhombuses are shrunk down and worked into the most precious of metals that adorn jewelry and watches alike.
This season, Chanel is finally paying a powerful homage to one of Gabrielle’s favorite motifs. The Chanel jewelry collection is entirely dedicated to “matelassé”. Sculpted in pure gold, it yields a collection of rings and a cuff bracelet with generous and feminine lines. Imbued with a sleek simplicity, in a radical vein that’s finely engraved onto white or yellow gold, the Coco Crush collection takes on modern values and, within a trans-generational refinement, turns the visual signature of the 2.55 bag into the it-motif of tomorrow. This graphic chic also tries its hand at the modern game of juxtaposing pieces since, released in three sizes – small, medium, and large – the rings also play with the possibilities of minimalism. And there you have it: a Coco Crush !
