It appeared four years after Karl Lagerfeld became artistic director of Chanel, and presents the house at the point where Gabrielle Chanel's legacy was being reinterpreted for the 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGabrielle Chanel died in 1971, and for more than a decade afterwards the house was known above all for its perfumes. Lagerfeld's appointment in 1983 changed that: he restored the importance of haute couture, gave ready-to-wear the form it has kept since, and revived elements such as the Cruise collections. By 1987 the house was expanding in several directions at once; that year it launched its first watches, with the Première, and Lagerfeld photographed his first Chanel advertising campaign, with Inès de la Fressange as its face. A retrospective in Rome at this moment set the house's history alongside its renewed present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe catalogue is a softcover publication in Italian, issued for the exhibition in 1987. It covers Chanel's archive pieces and tailoring together with the house's designs of the 1980s under Lagerfeld.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExhibition catalogues from the early Lagerfeld years at Chanel record how the house presented its own history while redefining it, and an Italian edition documents that presentation to an audience beyond Paris. This one will interest collectors of Chanel and of Lagerfeld, fashion libraries and archives, and researchers working on the history of fashion exhibitions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e good vintage condition, with minor shelf wear to the cover and spine consistent with age; pages clean and securely bound, with no major tears, stains or markings. score 90\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"chanel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57677352042876,"sku":"TA-CHA-0011","price":27000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/9433\/2408\/files\/s_l1600_2_1_bg_processed.jpg?v=1792054418","url":"https:\/\/www.thearchivary.com\/en-in\/products\/1987-chanel-catalogue-lagerfeld-hommage-a-chanel-rome-villa-giulia-exhibition","provider":"The Archivary ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
