Think tweed is only for old crusty Englishmen who sip on tea all day? Think again! Ever since Mademoiselle Coco Chanel introduced her womenswear brand in the 1920s, tweed has been a staple of the fashion world, especially at the house of Chanel, where it’s become the cornerstone of the brand.
This season, tweed’s moved away from the traditional coats and blazers to cocktail dresses, handbags and even gloves! And since it has the Chanel stamp of approval, who are we to go against the (tweed) grain, right?
