Chanel 2016 Airlines Tweed Strass XXL Flap Bag in Multicoloured Tweed with Silver Hardware
Editor’s Note
The Chanel 2016 Airlines Tweed Strass XXL Flap Bag is one of the most distinctive and collectible runway pieces from the house's celebrated Airlines collection. First unveiled during Chanel's Spring/Summer 2016 presentation, the collection transformed the runway into a glamorous airport terminal, showcasing playful travel-inspired designs that have since become highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
Crafted from multicoloured quilted tweed, this XXL Flap Bag showcases an extraordinary level of craftsmanship and detail. The exterior is richly embellished with sparkling strass rhinestones, creating a striking textured finish that captures the whimsical spirit of the Airlines collection. A standout rhinestone airplane motif adorns the front, paying homage to the collection's aviation-inspired theme.
The oversized flap silhouette is complemented by silver-tone hardware, featuring Chanel's iconic CC turn-lock closure and a chain strap interwoven with black leather. A unique and highly practical detail is the rear patch pocket with zip functionality, designed to attach to the handle of a cabin suitcase, reinforcing the travel concept behind the collection.
The spacious interior is lined in black fabric and offers ample room for everyday essentials while maintaining the statement appeal expected from a runway Chanel piece. Combining rarity, creativity and exceptional craftsmanship, the Airlines collection remains one of Karl Lagerfeld's most memorable and collectible Chanel themes.
