ALL ABOUT CHANEL 2.55 FLAP BAG The First Shoulder Bag
In February, 1955 Chanel released the iconic 2.55 Quilted Handbag- the most widely recognizable handbag, ever, in the world. Gabrielle Chanel created a bag that she needed herself: an accessory which freed up the hands. In February 1955, Chanel changed handbag history forever: she introduced the 2.55 Quilted Handbag with chain straps. For the first time, it was acceptable for women to carry a bag on their shoulders. The name 2.55 is based on the date of its creation: “2” for February, the second month of the year and “55” for 1955.
