Discovering the beauty of boucle

Chanel’s little black jacket is one of the most classic pieces of fashion history. Everything about it, from the sophisticated and minimalist cut through to the boucle fabric, is truly iconic. It’s every fashion lover’s dream to own the classic black Chanel jacket. It’s so versatile and I honestly believe that it can finish any outfit amazingly. Unfortunately the jacket is reserved for the very elite or those willing to save for a long  (and I mean long) time, with a rather large price tag of around $3000. Obviously I can’t afford that, but recently I’ve noticed that the ability to get a high-street priced slice of Chanel style has become far easier. Boucle fabric is on the rise and is bringing class, without it becoming “Granny”, along with it.

The boucle best:

Dorothy Perkins:

Although I’ll most probably never own a Chanel jacket, or any Chanel in fact, I can dream. Until that day comes I shall have to make do with high-street copies of the little black jacket and the use of boucle in other clothes.
