The metallic tie-dye 2.55

Portrait of Tammy Strobel

Available in two sizes, small and medium (pictured here), prices unavailable 

Named for the date it was created by Gabrielle Coco Chanel (Feb, 1955), the 2.55 is easily one of the most recognisable bags in the world. With an elegant silhouette and quilted texture, its design is timeless – and beloved by celebs from Kate Moss to Blake Lively. The icon has seen numerous iterations, from classic black calfskin to printed cotton, with a limited edition released each season. The latest version from the brand’s Metiers d’Art collection is its most lovely yet, in a metallic tie-dye goatskin with a gorgeous rainbow sheen. To achieve the effect, a metallised foil is placed on the leather before it goes through inkjet printing, which means each piece is truly one of a kind. How’s that for exclusive?
