Barbie芭比電影掀CHANEL復古潮,20萬心形擋臉包勢升值逾一倍!

CHANEL vintage items have been gaining more and more attention in recent years. The newly released live-action version of "Barbie" has pushed the CHANEL retro craze to a new peak. The movie shows off CHANEL's classic items from the 1990s , among which the most eye-catching is the CHANEL heart-shaped "face-covering bag". The market predicts that the price will be more than doubled from the current market price of 200,000.

In addition to designing a series of retro Barbie looks for Margot Robbie, CHANEL also designed a number of classic collections designed by Karl Lagerfeld in the 1990s that appeared in the film, including:

  1. CHANEL pink heart-shaped handbag (commonly known as face-blocking bag)
  2. CHANEL pink rhinestone cosmetic bag
  3. CHANEL colorful rhinestone necklace
  4. CHANEL pink skirt suit
  5. CHANEL pink and purple Tweed suit



CHANEL pink heart-shaped tote bag

The CHANEL heart-shaped handbag in the film is a replica of a classic item from 1995. The heart-shaped handbag launched by CHANEL that year had an eye-catching CC logo and a chain handle, presenting a retro style. Because European and American celebrities used this handbag to cover their faces when being interviewed by the media, it is also called the "face-covering bag."

Due to the limited number of "face-covering bags", the price of second-hand ones has remained high. Currently, the market price of "face-covering bags" of the same style but different colors is as high as HK$150,000. Now with the "Barbie" craze, the price will definitely soar by more than double.

CHANEL colorful rhinestone necklace

In the movie, Margot Robbie wore a pink CHANEL jumpsuit with a colorful rhinestone necklace. The large gems were connected by the CC logo, which was eye-catching.

This necklace is composed of two pieces. The film stylist combined the colorful jewelry necklace designed by Karl Lagerfeld in 1995 with CHANEL's antique heart jewelry. It is unique in the world.

Due to the popularity of "Barbie", the price of the same series of CHANEL in 1995 is now as high as about HK$220,000 in the second-hand market.
