A highly coveted and instantly recognizable Chanel haute couture custom commissioned pink wool three piece suit from fall-winter 1973. This gorgeous baby pink color is such a rarity! The stunning ensemble is also very well-documented, having a full two page spread in L'Officiel magazine. The luxurious fabric is so sensational; a mid-weight fully lined boucle wool in the most adorable baby pink shade. I adore the elegant front duel pockets and bold CC logo buttons throughout. There are also gold CC logo cufflinks at the end of the matching bow-tie neck long sleeve silk blouse. Jacket is weighted with traditional Chanel chain lining the hemline. This jacket alone is a statement piece and would look just as fantastic paired with jeans or a trouser. The matching pencil skirt is so flattering and completes the look with such sophistication. A truly iconic, museum worthy Chanel ensemble that will instantly become a favorite in your collection.
