Dear YouTube friends, this is where its at and where it has ALWAYS been at! The 2.55 legacy is Coco’s legacy. Everything else is just noise and gossip. 1955 marked an important milestone for the fashion, style, pop culture and perfume worlds!

1955 sees the birth of extremely important creations: the 2.55 bag, Chanel’s Pour Monsieur masterpiece perfume and also Walt Disney’s Disneyland opens its doors for the first time ever! 1955 was a year of dreams and hope. The second World War was a decade in the past and people were celebrating La Dolce Vita!

Coco just returned to the fashion scene in 1954 to heavy French criticism but by 1955 American socialites and fashion magazines named her the Ford of Fashion! After that, France could no longer look away and could no longer snob her!

In this new spring, Coco launched the legendary 2.55 bag! Adding metal chains as shoulder straps to free the wearer’s hands in a fast paced new world!

The chains were in metal so nobody could speed by the wearer on a motorcycle or vespa, cutting leather or fabric straps with scissors and stealing the bags! Coco solved that issue elegantly and with class.

The 2.55 bag sits on a special throne surrounded by the best of World times in modern history. 1955 was a year of hope and positive outlooks towards the future! Despite all the odds, the 2.55 bag is still to this date (in my humble opinion) the biggest fashion and style symbol of hope and positive returns! Its a true testament to Coco’s brilliance, survival skills, design genius and love of beautifully practical stylish objects made to aid us through our busy everyday lives!

In other words, The 2.55 is not just the past and present! The 2.55 is the Future!

  2. Loved the video! I had bought a grey anniversary edition bag a few years ago in the 226 size! I didn’t even know or pay attention to the horizontal stitch, so I when you mentioned it, I immediately looked at it and was ahhh! Very informative, educational video! I enjoy watching your videos very much! Thank you!!

  3. People are obsessed with the fold because they are obsessed with structure. Love this bag. My favourite Chanel bag.

  4. According to Reuters, Chanel sales in the United States have slowed to a single-digit growth rate over the past six months.
    Chanel and LV with their aggressive price gouging will soon learn that many people will not have the excess money to buy their stuff anymore. No more free pandemic money and student loan repayments starting in a few months.
    When it comes time to choose a new bag or a roof over their head people will pick the latter.

  5. Dacob you should call yourself a fashion historian because that's what you are. As a buyer I dig into style and quality, but you dig way way deeper than that. And in the light of your movie promotion and channel growth you may consider creating a Wiki page for yourself. You are at this level already, no need to be humble.

  6. Some people think handbags are just fluff and ignore the fact that you can learn so much about designers as well as the time they lived in just from the colors and materials. Loved learning this.❤

  7. Sorry Dacob I had a quick question, the picture that you used for Coco's purse was from which book?

    Also, have you ever thought of visiting the Dallas Museum of Art where they have a replica of the interior rooms from Coco Chanel's La Pausa villa? I guess the owners that purchased the villa after her, decided to make a replica for the museum.

  8. Love this Dacob…you are an incredible speaker…so eloquent. This is my dream bag but it is now out of reach….

  9. I bought exactly the same bag last year and it is very easy to use. But my jewelries are all gold, and I am considering to buy a new 226 with goldware, it is also suggest by the sales when I bought the 226.
    The goldware seems more bright, make me look more shiny, but the combination of the leather and ruthenium hardware is truly amazing and harmonic. I want to save my money and time, but I can't stop thinking about it. 😖
    What is your best opinion?

  10. I love you Dacob! Set all the bs Chanel fanatics straight 👏🏼💫 I love when you show your classics😍🤗 we want more more! Showing us Coco’s own 255 was awesome 👏🏼

  11. Oh my goodness…you know so many details about Chanel….please also do more economic analyses regarding luxury brands….❤😊

  12. I loved reading your pinned comment, Dacob. I enjoyed the video & learnt too! Thank you for being so informed.🩷

  13. I have been owning this back since 2010. Love reissue 2.55 227 is my size. I had to let my classic medium flap go after this bag and that’s my biggest regret ever in my life 😢!!!

  14. О, Боже! Эта моя самая любимая сумка в моей коллекции всех сумок! 🫶🏻🔥🔥🔥Ее сдержанность в дизайне, ее благородство и роскошь сводят меня с ума! Я не могу объяснить , но именно эта сумка делает мои образы скромной и одно время богатой женщиной. Она меня делает умной , уверенной и французской женщиной!😎

  15. Burgundie is not a nundress color what i can recall and it would be easy to check Up IF THE nuns had this color of not.
    What Will people has for story about Chanel 2035? Maybe Then they have dacobstorys about THE bag att Chanel. Everything is possible.
    Love to se a man with pearls! So baroque

  16. Sorry, I am so late ! Listening to your very interesting story about the 2.55 I have just discovered that I ordered a preloved 2.55 mini reissue bag from the 50th anniversary collection! In fact from pictures I can see the 2.55 and 2005 written on the interior flap!! What a lovely discovery. I have been looking for a preloved Chanel bag to gift to my daughter who graduated this year (but it is secret), I have been looking for a special one since months, just this week I saw this mini 2.55 as new entry in a preloved bag website and immediately I realized it was the right one, it should arrive in a few days. Thanks for this additional information which gives a even special vibe to my purchase 😍 You are always Nr 1 🎉

  17. I learned so much! Thank you for educating us, especially about how these bags are made. I love videos like this. Most luxury channels don't ever go in depth, they just want to show us their new bag (which I enjoy too). 🤦🏿‍♀😂
