The tweed Chanel jacket can be a staple piece in any woman’s wardrobe.  It may cost more than the average jacket but the craftsmanship and timelessness of it makes the price well worth it. The little black jacket by Chanel dates back further than their quilted bag and it is a favorite among the celebrity, fashion, and model elite.

The jacket has become such an iconic piece that Karl Lagerfeld and Carine Roitfeld enlisted over 100 models, celebrities, and fashion people to help model in the jacket for their upcoming book The Little Black Jacket: Chanel’s Classic Revisited.

Even if it wasn’t in all black, celebrities have always been a fan of the Chanel Jacket. It’s a masculine piece of clothing that Chanel managed to make very feminine, which may explain it’s everlasting popularity.
