    A rare and evocative creation from Karl Lagerfeld’s Autumn-Winter 1997–98 collection for Chanel, this boutique-labelled dress is a study in quiet opulence and abstract expression. The black chiffon bodice and hem lend a sense of fluidity and restraint, while the wool body and modesty panel serve as a canvas for amorphous embroidery in blue and pink floss silks, each shape meticulously outlined in matching seed beads—a tactile echo of Lagerfeld’s painterly vision.

    Cut in size FR 38 (approx. bust 81cm / 32in), the silhouette balances structure and softness, with the chiffon offering movement and the wool grounding the form. The interplay of texture and tone evokes a moody elegance, ideal for collectors and connoisseurs of late-90s Chanel.
