A particularly elegant interpretation of the classic Chanel tailored jacket, this piece combines a softly textured wool and alpaca tweed with a sharply defined, waist-conscious silhouette and elaborate jewel-like gold-tone buttons. The restrained dusty rose palette allows the sculptural tailoring and decorative hardware to become the principal features of the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eStyle Reference:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eP08301V05067\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ Colour reference \u003cstrong\u003eAB109\u003c\/strong\u003e.

The fine tonal weave creates a sophisticated matte texture, allowing the warm gold-tone hardware to stand prominently against the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silhouette draws upon classic Chanel tailoring while introducing a slightly more elongated and structured proportion. A traditional notched collar frames the neckline, leading into a clean single-breasted front secured by a vertical series of five decorative gold-tone buttons. Gentle shaping through the waist prevents the jacket from appearing boxy and gives it a distinctly tailored, feminine line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour substantial flap pockets are positioned symmetrically across the front — two at the chest and two at the hip — recalling both traditional Chanel four-pocket jackets and the utilitarian vocabulary of military and safari tailoring. Each pocket flap is punctuated by a matching jewel-like gold-tone button, turning the otherwise functional pocket construction into a major decorative element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe buttons are among the jacket's most distinctive features. Executed in warm gold-tone metal with coloured cabochon-like centres, they resemble miniature pieces of costume jewellery and create points of light across the muted pink tweed. Other surviving examples of P08301 from the 96A collection are likewise described in the secondary market as featuring Gripoix or jewel-style buttons, making the hardware an identifiable characteristic of this model. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe long sleeves maintain the clean tailored line of the body and terminate in subtle split\/tab-style cuffs. Unlike heavily fringed Chanel fantasy tweeds, the edges remain comparatively controlled, allowing the texture of the wool and alpaca weave and the decorative hardware to dominate the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior is fully lined in a lustrous tonal fabric, providing a smooth counterpoint to the tactile exterior and preserving the structured line of the jacket when worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eStyling \u0026amp; Versatility:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e The muted dusty rose colour makes this an unusually versatile example of 1990s Chanel tailoring. Styled with a narrow black trouser or skirt, the gold hardware becomes the focal point, while pairing it with cream, camel or tonal blush separates creates a softer monochromatic effect. Its longer fitted proportion also works particularly well over denim, where the formal four-pocket construction contrasts effectively with a more relaxed lower silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eCollectability:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e A strong example of Karl Lagerfeld-era Chanel tailoring from the Fall–Winter 1996\/97 Collection. The jacket combines several immediately recognisable House codes — tactile tweed, four-pocket construction, fitted tailoring, elaborate costume-jewellery-inspired buttons and French manufacture — within a particularly refined monochromatic palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exact \u003cstrong\u003eP08301V05067\u003c\/strong\u003e model is documented in multiple surviving examples on the secondary market, including pink and beige variants, with examples consistently identified as Chanel \u003cstrong\u003e96A\u003c\/strong\u003e and constructed in a 90% wool \/ 10% alpaca tweed. One documented pink example also retains the four-pocket configuration and French manufacture. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3} This surviving documentation makes the piece particularly useful as an identifiable and reference-supported example of Chanel's mid-1990s tailoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eClosure:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-breasted front with five decorative gold-tone buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eCondition:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Very good vintage pre-owned condition. The dusty rose tweed retains its characteristic softly raised texture and the jacket maintains a strong tailored silhouette. The decorative gold-tone buttons remain present across the front and pockets, and the original Chanel Boutique and 96A production labels are intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e The softly raised surface, fine fibres and subtle variations visible throughout the textile are characteristic of the wool and alpaca tweed and should not automatically be interpreted as condition flaws.
