Where Most First Chanels Begin
Introduced during Karl Lagerfeld’s earliest years at Chanel, the Classic Flap marked the beginning of a new era for the house. Its silhouette, chain strap, and quilted finish were designed with intention, moving effortlessly from day to night and decade to decade.
For a first Chanel, this style remains the most intuitive place to begin - balanced, recognizable, and easy to wear
A Softer Take on a Classic
For those drawn to something a bit more relaxed, these styles retain the signature quilting and 24k gold-plated hardware, while introducing alternative flaps and relaxed silhouettes
Often chosen as a first Chanel by those who want something timeless, but slightly less formal.
Character Without Compromise
These silhouettes bring depth through design, offering pieces that feel considered and confident from the start.
A thoughtful first choice for those who appreciate subtle distinction without straying far from Chanel's most enduring forms.
There's no rush, your first Chanel should feel right.
