Four Parisian stories about Chanel's "two-tone shoes" revealed

Sep 27, 2015

CHANEL has released four short films focusing on the two-tone shoes featured in its Fall/Winter 2015-16 ready-to-wear collection.

In 1957, when black dresses, tweed suits, and quilted bags were the norm, Gabrielle Chanel proposed the two-tone "Sling Bag Shoes" as a new accessory to enhance a woman's beauty. These beige and black two-tone pumps, which can be easily coordinated with a variety of outfits, have captivated celebrities such as Catherine Deneuve, Romy Schneider, and Brigitte Bardot, and have become popular worldwide.

The main shoe featured in the Fall/Winter 2015-16 ready-to-wear collection is a reinterpretation of a beige pump with a striking black toe, straps, and square heel. They can be paired with a variety of styles, from slim-cut leather pants to tweed dresses, tailored suits, and jeans. Tilda Swinton, Gwee Lun-Mei, and Park Soo-Ju were among the first to wear them.

The four movies released this time show Parisian women wearing the two-tone shoes in a variety of situations. The shoes worn by Parisian women go well with a variety of situations and outfits, indoors and outdoors, in the morning and at night, and with dresses and jeans. In addition to the four image movies, a making-of movie for the two-tone shoes has also been released.
