There is even a clip of her walking in the show which will give you an idea of how stunning ,this arty suit is once on the body.
The tweed of the wool-cotton blend is so soft and comfortable to wear all day long. It's light and perfect for all year around!
The suit is constructed from a dark navy version of the Chanel signature boucle fabric. and their boucle is created with their proprietary method of weaving that they themselves describe as"by weaving the warp and weft " ( see below about this technique)
The jacket has a nautical feel to it with the addition of the red and white ribbon that is woven through the edges of the suit and highlight the whole cut.

【ABOUT " weaving the warp and weft"】
CHANEL boucle is created with their proprietary method of weaving that they themselves describe as "by weaving the warp and weft ", using a variety of different kinds of threads which creates a unique and somewhat irregular appearance.
The warp – vertically strung – is the background of the fabric, the base that will support the assembly of materials. (There can be up to 12 different threads used for a single warp.
The weft – woven horizontally – gives the fabric its unique character and can have an unlimited number of threads.
Tight, perforated, textured, thick, with a relief, plaited, random, twill… the potential number of effects is endless". This technique gives you that classic Chanel look.
