A SET OF TWO:A JUST A DROP SWEATSHIRTA JUST A DROP VINYL CLUTCH

A rare runway piece from Chanel’s Fall/Winter 2001 show, this sweatshirt portrays a young Coco Chanel in a pop-art style as an homage to Roy Lichtenstein. The cheeky phrase bubble “Just a drop of No. 5”, is referencing the brand’s signature perfume. Playing with the Lichtenstein pop-art ethos of highbrow as lowbrow, this graphic depicts Coco Chanel, the woman who invented classic style, and removes her from her revered pedestal, transforming her into kind of a comic fashion heroine. A matching clutch of the same design is included.
