CHANEL ICONIC BAG Mademoiselle & 2.55
The Chanel 2.55 is a luxury leather handbag or purse manufactured by the fashion house of Chanel.
In the 1920s, Coco Chanel became tired of having to carry her handbags in her arms and decided to design a handbag that freed up her hands. Inspired by the straps found on soldiers’ bags she added thin straps and introduced the resulting design to the market in 1929.
After her successful comeback to the fashion industry in 1954, Chanel decided to update her handbag. The resulting design was called 2.55 after the date of creation, February 1955.
