Chanel cardis - found!

A few months ago, I posted this photo in the Celebrities album and everyone drooled over the Chanel cardi.


I promised to keep an eye out for (decent quality) replicas.


Today I found some.

Navy wool with cream trim & gold buttons, By Malene Birger.


& the reverse colourway - 

The buttons are lovely & heavy - not tin-y.
The cuff button are fully functional, so you can undo them to roll up the sleeves and give the cardi a casual edge.


Both these were at Christensen Copenhagen at Westfield Sydney.

Interested? Give them a call -  (02) 9232 2277


I also posted some photos last week from Forever New. They had a cardi which had a Chanel twang about it.

This one is acrylic and a lower price point. It has 3/4 sleeves and its not a bad copy.


You can find this at any Forever New store. There was also a light grey version with pink trim. 


I'd love to know if any of these appeal to you.
