circa 1966 Chanel Haute Couture Suit Labeled and Designer A simple cut silk dressIt is always wonderful to have a true piece of Haute Couture and this Chanel suit is to die! First of all, it is pink and a perfect pastel pink at that! It is the classic Chanel boucle that upon close inspection is actually a mix of a pink wool, a almost silver chenille ribbon and pale lavender all woven and thatched through each other.
