A true icon of the 1996 Spring/Summer collection, this velvet dress stands among the most celebrated pieces.
Supermodels from around the world graced the runway in these velvet creations, igniting excitement and turning the show into a global sensation.
Among them, the red sleeveless dress drew particular attention. Top model Claudia Schiffer opened the collection in this piece, her striking presence leaving an indelible mark on fashion history.
Chanel’s velvet from the 1990s is regarded as a material worth experiencing at least once in a lifetime, praised for its beauty and refinement as a truly superior textile.
The deep red velvet shifts in tone with the light, casting shadows that enhance the wearer’s elegance and allure.
The silhouette features soft gathers that flare from the waist, moving gracefully with every step and leaving an air of elegance.
Though simple in design, the dress radiates an overwhelming presence, seizing attention and defining sophistication.
Worn for dinners or evening parties, it transforms the atmosphere with unmatched brilliance.
This is a dress worthy of being called the pinnacle of the collection, a rare archival treasure of Karl Lagerfeld’s 1990s era, and one that deserves a place in the wardrobe of anyone it fits.
