Editor’s Note
The Chanel Métiers d’Art Classic Double Flap Medium from 2017 is a rare collector’s piece that goes far beyond a classic flap—it’s a showcase of Chanel’s atelier craftsmanship and artistic storytelling. Métiers d’Art collections are known for celebrating the house’s specialist workshops, and pieces like this highlight intricate materials and techniques you won’t find in standard releases.
This version stands out with its beige palette combined with a “peeled” leather effect, tweed elements, and embellishments—bringing texture and depth into one design. Neutral tones like beige continue to dominate in 2026, especially within the textural luxury trend, where mixing materials (leather, tweed, embellishment) creates a more elevated, fashion-forward look.
The Medium Classic Flap (25cm) remains one of the most wearable sizes—large enough for daily essentials while still maintaining that structured, iconic silhouette. It’s perfect for those who want a statement piece that is still functional and easy to style.
What makes this bag truly special is its uniqueness. Unlike standard black or classic variations, Métiers d’Art pieces are produced in limited quantities and often become highly collectible over time. This one sits right at the intersection of classic Chanel and runway-level design.
Styling-wise, it works beautifully with neutral outfits, letting the textures stand out, but can also elevate simple looks into something more editorial. It’s ideal for collectors or anyone looking for a Chanel piece that feels distinctive and rare.
