This specific model, commonly referred to as the “Medium Classic Flap,” is crafted from lambskin leather. It features the iconic diamond quilting, a signature house code inspired by the jackets worn by jockeys at the racetrack. The design is defined by the gold-tone metal double C turn-lock clasp, which was introduced by Karl Lagerfeld in 1983 to reinterpret the original 2.55 handbag.
A symbol of elegance and excellence, the 11.12 handbag is a true couturière’s piece, handcrafted in the ateliers of CHANEL and requiring more than 180 different steps to complete. It is constructed using the signature “retourné” (sewn-backwards) gesture, where the bag is sewn like a garment from the inside out and then turned over. The bag features an interwoven chain strap laced with leather, allowing it to be worn on the shoulder or doubled for a shorter drop. Inside, the signature burgundy leather lining offers practical organization with several compartments, making it a timeless ally for both daily use and evening occasions.
