SOFIA RECOMMENDS AllWomenstalk Fashion Trends Louis Vuitton The Bag Snob Tiffany Replica Reviews Chanel Classic Flap and 2.55 Reissue: What’s the difference? Apr 23, 2010 / Posted in Chanel by Sofia 41

Path
If you are anything like me I am sure that you have some version of the Chanel classic flap handbag lying around or you are atleast covet it. So what makes the classic flap so classic? And what is the difference between that Chanel handbag and the 2.55 reissue? Well in actual fact they are the same bag, just different versions.

Coco Chanel introduced the classic flap in February of 1955 (2.55). The luxurious bag, with its flap opening, quilted leather, and chain strap��characteristics which would become aesthetic staples in Chanel handbag designs��revolutionized how handbags were worn by women. Prior to the introduction of the Chanel Classic Flap handbag socialites would carry their purses in their hands. The revolutionary chain strap (inspired by the key chains worn by nuns at Coco Chanel’s orphanage when she was a girl) allowed classy ladies to keep both of their hands free.

Over the years this bag has gone through a number of changes. It has been reproduced with different leathers, different closures, different handles, different colours and sizes,louis vuitton replica handbags, just about every variation one could imagine. Until Karl Lagerfield got a little bit of retro fever and introduced the 2.55 Reissue. This bag is a throwback to the original Classic Flap created by Coco Chanel herself.

Fabulous Flap Bags: The Differences

If you look at the replica Chanel Reissue 2.55 handbag and the Chanel Classic Flap, on first glance they appear to be basically the same. Here are some of the key differences:

? Chain strap: The Reissue features a strap that is made exclusively of metal chain, while the Classic Flap has leather interwoven with the chain.

The Mademoiselle closure is only found on the the Reissue or bags manufactured before the 1980's

? Closure: The Chanel Reissue 2.55 features the rectangular Mademoiselle lock, introduced by Coco Chanel in the ’50s (the name is in reference to the fact that Coco never married). The Classic Flap features a CC lock closure, introduced by Karl Lagerfeld in the ’80s.

? Leather: The two handbags feature a slightly different character of leather. The Reissue 2.55 features leather that appears more worn than the modern version.

? Inner flap: The Reissue Chanel handbags feature an inner double flap (where Coco Chanel hid her love letters).

There you have it. If you’re looking for a replica handbag that’s classically Chanel, both the replica Chanel Reissue 2.55 and the replica Chanel Classic Flap provide fabulous options. Hopefully the differences I’ve outlined can help you decide which one suits your needs better. Me, I can’t decide which one I like better! Do you have a preference or do you think they’re both equally fabulous?

I like them both too! Sofia, I would love to see your purse collection! Have you ever thought about having an exhibit. I know it is to die for!! Thanks for the knowledge!

Reply Sofia ~ 04/25/2010 at 2:25 am

I am working on it…I just haven’t figured out what platform I want to use.

Reply Callie ~ 04/23/2010 at 3:54 pm

They are both amazing! Super easy fix: buy both, just in different colors,designer replica handbags!

Reply julia ~ 04/23/2010 at 4:34 pm

great article! That’s the bag i’m coveting right now, either a classic flap or a metallic reissure. Since you own one, can you recommend me a good site for these models? I was going with Replica valley or Replica Vision, but if you know a better site, please tell!

Reply Sofia ~ 04/25/2010 at 2:27 am

They are the best sites except their selection is a little slim. But if you can find the one you are looking for I would definitely recommend them.

Reply Joanne ~ 04/23/2010 at 5:18 pm

Hi Sofia, thanks for rerfreshing my memory! I read about above years ago when I first received authentic black Classic 2.55 small from a friend. What a beautiful story of Coco…always so inspiring, I especially love the fact that she never married. There’s this certain thing about a beautiful, successful unmarried woman…

Classic is such a one and only, but I’d love to own a medium size Reissue. I like the Mad lock and metal chain, love at first sight! know you once told me to check out Beubag for replicas, however with so many negative feedbacks, not sure where to look now. As you said Chanel is so hard to replicate. Not sure about Replica Valley for Chanels though. FYI-I’m waiting for my Artsy from them any day now. Can’t wait!!

Reply Sofia ~ 04/25/2010 at 2:29 am

The Chanels at Replicavalley are also very good. You need to check the details because sometimes with Chanel they can be off a little but the materials are top notch. Glad to hear you made the plunge with the Artsy you won’t be sorry.

Reply Nadia ~ 04/27/2010 at 1:13 pm

Sofia, you are correct in the details. I recently ordered 3 LV items, a Chanel bag and a Chanel wallet from Replicavalley and the I was not all that pleased. The leather on the wallet was great, but the emblem was crooked. The leather on the bag was a good quality lambskin, but I had actually ordered a patent bag. The LV on the other hand, was PERFECT. Not sure if I will order Chanel from then again. Any recommendations for Chanel replicas – it looks like cnreplicabag.com has a good blue caviar but the site is horrible and that dont accept CC.

What are your thoughts?

Reply Sofia ~ 04/27/2010 at 1:20 pm

Not a big fan Nadia. Have you ever tried

Reply Ashlie ~ 04/23/2010 at 7:49 pm

Hi Sophia,

First of all, thanks for the great feedback!

I am looking for some mirror image Chanel bags and unfortunately replicavalley and replicavision are sold out in the styles that I want. Any other outstanding sites that carry mirror image Chanel handbags? Also, any tips where I can find great Gucci replica sunglasses?

Thanks!

Reply Sofia ~ 04/25/2010 at 2:33 am

Hi Ashlie, to tell you the truth right now I am at a loss. 2 other sites that I used to recommend have disappointed me recently so I am temporarily out of recommendations (except replicavalley and replicavision) You might consider waiting for them. You could email them and try to figure out how long it will be out of stock for. Very often things are out of stock there for no more than a few days.

Reply ellen ~ 04/26/2010 at 7:33 am

Hi, Sophia,

Which chanel bag are you after? I may be able to help.

A couple of weeks ago, I came across a guy from China who has a connection with the same factory that Replicavalley use for their products, I have purchased my palermo GM(lv) from this guy, excellent quality, extactly as the photo shown on R/valley, the price was a lot, a lot, cheaper. I have ordered a new LV monogram neo with him, it should be arriving soon, so excited…. Just wonder what chanel bag you are after, maybe he can manage to get the one you want for you.

Reply ellen ~ 04/26/2010 at 7:34 am

Sorry, the above message is for Ashlie….

Reply Ash ~ 04/28/2010 at 6:45 am

Hi Ellen, sorry to ‘intrude’ – I would love to get an excellent chanel (reissue black/grey) and LV (Eden Neo, Galliera GM, Neverfull Roses), – any possibility your friend could help me?

Reply Sofia ~ 04/27/2010 at 12:27 pm

Hey Ellen, thanks for asking, but at the moment I`m just doing research for online replica stores. But it`s good to know!

Reply legendrella ~ 05/16/2010 at 12:07 pm

Hi Ellen

Does this guy have a website?

Reply doll ~ 05/04/2010 at 11:20 pm

Hey Ashlie,

I just bought an authentic pair of Gucci sunglasses from Saks off 5th and another pair from Nordstrom off the rack, they sell 350 dollar sunglasses for about 70 to 120 bucks, wayyy cheaper!! So no point buying a replica when u can get authentic sunglasses for the same price!

Reply Sofia ~ 05/05/2010 at 3:31 am

Hmm, I see what you are saying about the square piece it is slightly off…Having said that I do think poor quality leather is more noticeable to the naked eye than the small details but I do understand your dilema

Reply Enis ~ 04/27/2010 at 11:57 pm

Chanel flaps are not replicated well, period. If every celebrity didn’t have one, no one else would want one either… so annoying. However, almost any other Chanel is okay yet the quality of materials is generally way inferior in comparison to the authentic, which isn’t really the case with other reps.

Reply soso ~ 04/28/2010 at 5:02 pm

hello sofia

do you know what is the different between Replica and 1:1 quality ?

Reply Sofia ~ 04/29/2010 at 1:42 am

Really I think it is unwise to get caught up in language. Most of it is created as part of an ad campaign to make you think one site is better than another. In China there is AAA quality and B quality and even that is subjective.

Reply Yale ~ 04/28/2010 at 10:49 pm

Hi Sophie,

Where did you purchase the black caviar bag in the above photo?

Reply Sofia ~ 04/29/2010 at 1:44 am

Not every bag pictured on my site is part of my collection. These images are of authentic bags.

Reply milk ~ 05/09/2010 at 2:51 pm

Hi Sofia

i have always wanted a 2.55 but the ones on replicavalley, the handle part going into the body of the bag just does not seem as good design as the classic flap.

always reading your blog. please keep up !!

Reply Sofia ~ 05/10/2010 at 11:15 am

I`d definitely get this one
But you could also look at this isn`t it just gorgeous?

Reply milk ~ 05/13/2010 at 12:44 am

Reply Sal ~ 05/14/2010 at 11:56 am

Hi there,
Do All The chanel bags from replicavalley come with hologram stickers on The authenticity card???

Reply Sofia ~ 05/14/2010 at 12:12 pm

Hey Sal! They have a live chat support that you can use, I`m sure the agents will be happy to answer these questions.

Reply Lyna ~ 05/18/2010 at 10:25 am

Ladies,

I need help. I want a classic CHANEL 2.55, probably in caviar. I have been looking non-stop for 3 days and I am undecided on 2 sites: replicavalley but they don’t have the caviar bag I want. Highreplica1 but they don’t have detailed pictures and I am not sure their bags have all the same authentic details that can be found on replicavalley’s bags. Thoughts? Please.

Reply Sofia ~ 05/18/2010 at 2:29 pm

Hey Lyna! I think the 2.55 colors on Replica Valley are great! But in case you really are looking for something else, then you can try buying it here

Reply Sandra ~ 06/02/2010 at 4:25 am

Hi Sofia

Many thanks for this site with lots of helpful information, I have been reading and reading find your site helpful. I wonder however that you always mention replica valley, I suppose there are lots and lots of replica sites out there and their website does have great pictures. But still is this the only site you recommend? Im just curious because this site does get mentioned an awful lot, and to be honest it has a bit of an advertising feel to it.

Reply Sofia ~ 06/02/2010 at 1:09 pm

I don`t doubt it does Sandra
I use other websites you know. Websites like websites like bagaholics.com . Used to like beubag.com and replicaestore.com as well,eye glasses, but they`ve dissapointed me recently and I stopped ordering.

Reply fay ~ 06/22/2010 at 6:34 pm

Hi Sofia,

I am happy to have found your site while i was searching for a website review (poshmoda.com). You mention it above and I was wondering how was your experience and the bag quality? I actually wanted to buy a chanel flap bag. Thanks

Reply Sofia ~ 07/05/2010 at 1:57 pm

I`ve had more than one experience with them, and they`ve been great!

Reply Tiffany ~ 06/06/2010 at 10:52 pm

Does anybody know where I can find a replica Chanel Naked clear bag? I have been looking everywhere but no luck.

Reply Sofia ~ 06/07/2010 at 9:55 am

So funny, I haven`t thought about that bag in quite some time now, and haven`t seen it anywhere. I`ll look, it`s a great bag according to originality.

Reply Tiffany ~ 06/07/2010 at 10:45 am

Thanks for the reply back. Yes, I get these handbag “kicks” every now and then. If you do happen to find a site that does have one for sell, please let me know. I have money in hand and I am ready to buy. Thank you!

Reply Sofia ~ 06/07/2010 at 12:05 pm

Hehe, great Tiffany,eyeglasses, I`ll let you know

Reply Cin ~ 06/28/2010 at 7:10 pm
