Over 100 items of carefully sourced Chanel items will make their way to desktops everywhere. The sale’s emphasis will be on current wearability rather than couture and museum-style pieces. Yoox founder Federico Marchetti told the Financial Times: “We are not an archive house but a store.” The oldest items come from the 1950s, when Coco Chanel re-established her Paris house after the war, but many more are from the period of Karl Lagerfeld’s tenure as designer, starting in the mid-1980s.

Everything on sale is in great condition and prices are very reasonable. Starting at approximately £130 for jewellery up to £260 for a gilt-buttoned swimsuit to £1000 for a silk dress and matching jacket.
