There are two bags you need to know about, the Birkin is one and the other, the Chanel 2.55. A typical Chanel handbag you say? Well, helllooooo, it’s called an icon! History was made when Coco Chanel introduced this bag in February 1955 (as in, 2.55). Coco wanted a shoulder bag to free up her hands. Hey, she had other things to carry. The quilts were inspired by jackets worn by jockeys (yes, jockeys). This classic is being reissued for this season in white, black and silver, which we love the most. For the collectors out there, this is a must.
I love all colors of chanel 2.55!!!
THANKS LOVE…I need the 226…isnt that the original that COCO made? Is it impossible to find? sigh…I’m a late bloomer…I love this little gem and as the saying goes, “better late than never!”
Thanks for being so informative with everything.
They are orgasmic.
I own the 2.55 handbag in white, so beautiful, I love it!!
how much is a chanel 2.55
close to $2,000.00
I am drooling over a Chanel Large 2.55 in Black.
Does anyone know when will Chanel reissue this version?
BTW I am completely addicted to this website
i think the 2.55 is aweful. I don’t understand what all the fuss is about!?
“i think the 2.55 is aweful. I don’t understand what all the fuss is about!?”
You spelt awful wrong.
It’s a classic, timeless bag. That’s what the fuss is about.
You SPELLED “spelled” wrong. Be nice.
it’s ok to use spelt btw. Anyway, this chanel bag is a classic
Actually “spelt” is correct; it’s British.
i personally love 2.55.
simply timeless and classic. fit all occasions.
Do you think there is any difference in quality in the 2.55 bags from the older vintage ones in “excellent” shape to the new ones? Or any significant design changes?
I just got a medium black Chanel classic. If Im not wrong, there are two types of leather used, caviar and lambskin. caviar has the grainy texture while lambskin is much softer to touch. however, the lambskin material needs high maintenance and easily scratch too.
the vintage chanel in store right now still have the original chanel logo clasp while the reissue version is just plain clasp. Good luck Lisa in your purchase 😀
Hi I just wanna know where you buy the bag – I´m from DK and it´s not available here
I LOVE this bag…
i am choosing between the classic 2.55 and the larger style.
The small one is beautiful, chic, i love it…but i will mostly use it at night and can fit the bare min. The larger one is the perfect size for day or night but its so long and im afraid it looks too bulky on me. they are so much alike just one bigger than the other! aah im torn.
I have the petit shopper so im used to the convenient size.

Hi people. Must admit i love this blog. I’m about to get the chanel 2.55 for my sister and I, does anyone know the style no for the medium size in black grainy leather with the gold hardware. Thanks all x
hey everyone,
i bought a large beige Chanel caviar leather classic purse with double chains in silver…i really regret it! wish i bought the 2.55 instead 🙁
also the quilting of the purse is due to Coco’s beige suede couch in her apartment
Does anyone know the best way to find an ’07 Dark Silver 2.55? I really like the coloring on last year’s version better than the current spring ’08 Dark Silver. Thanks! =)
Hi people, I’m from Malaysia. I really adore this Chanel 2.55, especially lambskin in black with silver chain, though lambskin is a bit hard to maintain. i have a baby one in black n i’m thinking to get a medium one. Does anyone knows how much its selling in London or Paris? cuz i might be asking my friend’s help to get for me in London or Paris. where is cheaper by the way? the price in malaysia is much much more expensive.
If you click on my name, you can find all of the top name brand bags at extremely low prices.
I know the 2.55 is the standard as far as Chanel goes but I like the classic flap bags better. I just like the leather interwoven w/ the chain. There seems to be something more youthful about the classic flap. However, as I expand my collection I am sure I will buy a 2.55. I love the history behind the bag & why it is designed the way it is. There is something nostalgic about the 2.55. It is just a special bag that none other compare to because of CoCo’s special little touches. Gosh-all this talk makes me want to go buy one!
hey, can anyone give me the measurements for the chanel 2.55?
I want to buy the chanel bag sooooo much..
But I’m still thinking to buy the small 2.55 or the large one with silver.
I am 20 years old,which one is more youthful and better to use??
Advise please
Another question:
It’s now june and I see every designer bags or clothes are in sale.
I went to the chanel store, but only the shoes were in sale.
And the bags were not in sale, does the 2.55 and the rest of the bags will be sale too??
im looking for black&pink 2.55? cant find it online. so if anyone could help…
thanks in adv!!
I have just come home with the chanel 2:55 in purple, I got the last one! It’s absolutely beautiful and the most perfect bag I have ever owned.
2:55s are never or very very rarely in sale because they never need to be, the current season colours always sell out.
I got the chanel 2.55 black caviar skin for my 18th birthday its fab and makes me very happy : )

Hi,
I am from Singapore, I have a brand new black caviar medium classic double flap for sale. A friend bought it from USA for me in Aug (US$2350 before tax), but its the wrong size (I already had the medium size). The price tag is still on with the dust bag. But it does not have the box as she discarded it for ease of packing. I am willing to let it go at S$3750. This is at the same rate as US$2350 with tax and currency conversion. I believe the current Singapore retail price is S$4050. Let me know if anyone is interested. Thanks !
TT
Is your bag still for sale?
You can’t spell, you know nothing

Hi, i just got my 2.55 bag medium size lambskin from Bangkok airport…
after conversation it is at S$4,100..
luv it very much…
the sales person told me that the price is going to increase in Nov.
think it’s abt 12% more..
hi im interested on your channel bag. do u still have it? contact me in 91910254.
I am totally in L.O.V.E with the chanel classic in black and beige caviar. Prefer the classic as i personally find the adjoined C clasp and chain is what makes the 2.55 a 2.55! Coco Chanel totally designed it to a perfection. Problem is i’m just 16! Looks like i’ve still got years to come before i get it and as you knw year by year the price would keep getting higher and higher. The 2.55 would probably cost me 10 times in the near future. I do not wish to resort to a fake one. sobs.
The 2.55 was actually based on a design by Germaine Guerin who had a shop at 243 Rue St. Honore, as noted in Vogues’ The Chanel Century May 2005…
Hi,
I am interested. Do u have pictures? Can u verify the interior colour? thanks!
Does anyone know how much the Chanel classic lambskin flap handbag is worth now? Please let me know as i am selling mine. I heard the prices have risen.
Does anyone the material (lambskin or caviar) of the Chanel 2.55 Jumbo bag Lauren Conrad carries?
If it looks grainy, like the rough type its caviar. If it looks smooth and shiny its lambskin
I love all the Chanel 2.55 Jumbo bags!! but I can’t afford them before I finish Uni:((( I found a good website to purchase same style tho!!!

I bought a vintage lambskin chanel XL jumbo on ebay…i suffer from OCD so i lighting wiped it with a wet cloth using (water only) and the black ink on the bag transferred onto my hand n cloth…is this meant to happen with vintage chanel? is it meant to happen with any chanel bags?

Oh no, that doesn’t sound good. Are you sure it was genuine? Because if it was a bag meant for everyday use, and you used it in the rain surely it would be completely ruined? I hope thats not the case for you.

Hi, am in Singapore and desperately looking of the reissue 2.55 in black or even the black metallic reissue in 2007 is even better…jumbo or large would be great too….anyone willing to sell?
Im so in love. I have finally got my bag. After much deliberation I finally went for the chanel calfskin reissue 2.55 jumbo bag. Its calfskin, so wont mark easily, with the gold chain and madmoiselle clasp. I havent yet bragged to my friends, I dont think I could justify the price. So im glad I can share it with you guys.
I got my bag in Selfridges, in London. I was there for the wkend. Let me tell you, they are not helpful staff (until you pull the money), so, know what you want b4 u go in there. And dont be afraid to ask to see their whole entire stock and walk away to decide. I did.
Actually I went to the Chanel shop on bond st (twice, and my little boy puked up in there), went upstairs in selfridges (once), went to the chanel bags downstairs in selfridges (twice), went back the next day with my mind made up , only to be told “sold out”. So I repeated the whole process again, joking!! Na, it was a sunday and I had to get back. So pressure was on, staff huffing and puffing, people waiting to be served, time was ticking. In case you were wondering, I was going to buy the patent leather jumbo, cc clasp with silver/patent straps, beautiful.
When you spend that much money you want to be sure you are getting the right one, yeah?
To be honest, I am still wondering if I have. Its only because of the hassle I went through to get that bag, that I wont part with it. But im kind of thinking about the large 2.55 in caviar, cc clasp with gold intwined straps. Why? Because when you spend that kind of money on a bag, you want people to know its a chanel bag. So yeah, to summarise, the reissue 2.55 is the “not in your face, chanel bag”, you will only know its a chanel bag when you open the bag to whip out yr purse/phone. Only then there is a big cc embroided inside the red flap. But then because its not the same as the copies, or “wanna be” bags, there is no mistake that the reissue 2.55 in madmoiselle clasp is anything but the original.
Thank you for letting me share my story with you guys, it feels great to get it off my chest. As I said, my friends wont relate to this, they’ll judge me.
I cant wait til my next adventure, I got to get the purse to go with my bag.
Got my 2.55 reissue black jumbo bag, caviar, gold straps, at long last. I must ahave annoyed the staff at Selfridges London, and I know I annoyed the staff at Chanel Bond st (my little boy puked up in there). Just got to say, dont be afraid to ask to see the whole entire stock b4 making your purchase. And know what you want and have an alternative in case they are out of stock. I wanted the 2.55 large, caviar, gold/leather intwined straps with the CC clasp. The patent leather in silver straps was beautiful, but sold out. Was considering selling my bag, but because of the palava I went through to get my bag, I am going to stay faithful.
Thank you for letting me share my story with you guys, it feels great to get it off my chest. As I said, my friends wont relate to this, they’ll judge me.

i m going london next week too. am contemplating to get a channel 2.55 bag. how much do you get yours for? i am only beginning to learn about the 2.55 bag. have not owned any channel bags. u mention u got the jumbo bag. how many sizes are there?
i m from singapore. anybody out there know whats the price like in singapore for the bag mei bght in london?
I went to Vegas for a weekend and I noticed that a lot of the girls had the baby chanel quilted cc clasp bag. They were beautiful and I fell in love. I probably can’t afford the calfskin one, is the caviar cheaper? I want to get my hands on something that’ll never go out of style.
After reading all these comments, I learned a lot! And Mei, your story, I wouldn’t part with it either after all that trouble, it now has sentimental value! 🙂

my bf wana get me a bag i choose chanel 2.55 but i’m still thinking which colour to buy n gold or silver chain? plz advise.
Just because the writer disagrees and said the bag was AWFUL doesn’t mean you have to criticize the spelling. This website is supposed to be about handbags, not spelling and grammar. And, by the way, this is an AMERICAN SITE; therfore, SPELT is not correct (it’s “spelled”). Stop trying to make yourself look good–you made a mistake while trying to correct one! Get over yourself!

I have box / dust bag / authentication card. Hardly been used, condition is great.
This message is in response to CHANEL LOVER’s post to being an authentic resaler of chanel. please email me at nataghabi@live.com so I can ask you questions. Thanks.
nice post!
i cant share this link : https://www.bagsnob.com/2005/09/chanel_255_1.html
am i doing it wrong ?
i just want to know the diference between the chanel 2.55 bags and classic flap bags,thanks for any answers.
I love this handbag.
Despite being introduced in 1955, it look more contemporary than the Timeless Classic flap.
Understated, chic, elegant and tasteful, it’s emblematic of the House Chanel and the original design as created by Coco herself.
I have it in the 225 size (small) in black aged calf skin with gold hardware. It’s my one and only Chanel bag.
