Last week we were at the newly opened Chanel boutique in Amsterdam. We attended an exclusive style exercise from famous styliste Manhattan Lebel. It was incredibly inspiring, as she showed us multiple looks with just a few items from the Paris Hamburg Collection. The collection is named Paris Hamburg, because Hamburg is the city were Karl Lagerfeld was born back in 1933.
You can see the whole resemblance from Hamburg throughout the collection. Just like the covetable ‘Container Bag’ and the many nautical influences.
One of the key tips of Manhattan was that you need to invest in just 7 essential pieces and how to create so many different looks! But what are these 7 essential pieces? Well, Manhattan explained: these are the items you feel comfortable in. Like the iconic tweed jacket from Chanel. In this collection is that a white tweed sailor jacket, and in addition a matching tweed sailor cap. You can style it in lots of multiple ways.
