Chanel has some much-discussed plans to venture into in-house online retail, but until September 2016 at the earliest, you’ll still have to get creative if you want to buy Chanel bags and accessories online. That’s why we think you’ll want to jump at the What Goes Around Comes Around vintage Chanel trunkshow currently happening on Moda Operandi; it’s full of pre-owned bags both vintage and recent, in addition to the brand’s iconic costume jewelry and small accessories, all just a click away.
Some brands are better for vintage acquisitions than others, and Chanel is easily among the best. Not only are many of the bags from decades ago still made today, but the seasonal Chanel pieces of the 70s, 80s and 90s have a particular kind of luxurious edge that makes them recognizable and collectible, even among people who are otherwise not vintage-savvy.
Below, we’ve selected some of the pieces we love most from the trunkshow, which runs through May 3. You can shop the full edit via Moda Operandi.
