Chanel\u2019s Boy pays homage to the brand\u2019s history, to Coco, and to the love of her life, the man who first inspired her to rework rules for men to make them work for women: Boy Capel.<\/p>\n
This great love had a tragic end when the Mademoiselle\u2019s lover died suddenly in 1919, leaving her alone with her prestige. Nevertheless, this passionate adventure had a decisive impact on the designer\u2019s life, so much so that Chanel\u2019s style untiringly takes inspiration from the male wardrobe and from the era that marked the time she spent at her loved one\u2019s side. Somewhere between hunting and swimming, she fashioned her own style, simple and gracious, by mischievously rewriting the now contemporary rules of masculine\/feminine. An incontestably avant-garde effigy.<\/p>\n
Chanel\u2019s Boy is reminiscent of a simple satchel able to adapt to any style. According to Karl Lagerfeld, this luxurious object makes allusion to a hunter\u2019s cartridge belt. So it\u2019s a men\u2019s accessory with straight lines but still dressed up with a small chain for a bit of femininity. It\u2019s a fine union: the delicateness of glossy leather and heavy chain links, a touch of Chanel par excellence<\/em>. You can wear it any circumstance, night or day, to make for an elegant look with a hint of retro.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chanel\u2019s Boy pays homage to the brand\u2019s history, to Coco, and to the love of her life, the man who first inspired her to rework rules for men to make them work for women: Boy Capel.
