Curator's Note

This cocktail dress was designed by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel's Spring/Summer 1992 collection and appeared on the runway worn by Linda Evangelista and in the season's advertising campaign on Claudia Schiffer. It is cut in white tweed woven with iridescent zig-zag braid, which catches the light across the whole surface. The dress has a high neckline and a low back held by shoulder straps of signature Chanel gold-tone chain threaded with white leather. The chain-and-leather strap is the same construction for the Chanel classic flap handbag.

Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel

Karl Lagerfeld was appointed creative director of Chanel in 1983 and spent thirty-six years reinterpreting the Chanel codes: the tweed suit, the quilted handbag, the little black dress, the CC monogram, across collections that also became known for their extraordinary runway spectacle. What he found, in his own words, was a “sleeping beauty” - a house with a clear heritage but no contemporary relevance. He rebuilt it into one of the most recognised luxury houses in the world.
