Wondering why the Chanel Classic Flap continuously holds its value and attention decades after its appearance? Before it became a staple on every wishlist, Chanel was simply Coco. A visionary who in 1955, introduced the 2.55 bag that quietly reshaped how women wore luxury. It was practical, elegant, and intentionally rebellious, just like herself.
Looking today, the Classic Flap isn’t just a bag. It is a piece of fashion history desired by many. One that’s also become increasingly difficult to purchase directly from Chanel boutiques. With constant biannual price increases, limited stock, and a growing global demand, what once was an accessible symbol of luxury is now a highly sought after asset. In many cases, pieces in excellent condition on the resale market now exceed retail pricing. There recently has been plenty talk behind where and how Chanel items are produced, but the truth is simple. Chanel continues to invest in its European ateliers, prioritising heritage and craftsmanship. Today, most flap bags are still made in France of Italy by trained and skilled artisans, not machines - which is what keeps the bar as high as it is.
