Chanel held a luncheon to celebrate the release of their newest line of handbags, “Coco Cocoon,” at Chanel Soho Boutique (139 Spring St NYC 10012 (212) 334-0055).  The inspiration for the handbags derived from the Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel Statement: “True luxury in when something is as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside.”

Keeping true to that principle, a few of the nylon and lambskin handbags in the new line are reversible, displaying the elegant quilting that the Chanel brand is known for. The collection comes in a number of different shapes, sizes and styles, sure to fit any occasion. Beyond that, and keeping in the style of Chanel, they offer a selection of purses, wallets, cases, pouches and key chains to match.

Guests in attendance were Fabiola Beracasa, Lauren Remington Platt, Poppy Delevigne, Jennifer Brill, Ferebee Bishop Taube, Lauren Santo Domingo, Eleanor Yivisaker, Cristina Greeven Cuomo, Charlotte Ronson, Danielle Steele, Elisa Lipsky-Karasz, Amy Greenspon, Jessica Joffe and Stephanie LaCava.
