Chanel Collaborates with Car Designer for New Concept Car, Chanel Fiole

Posted on: May 7

I must have missed the memo about fashion and transportation partnerships being the next big thing. Maybe it's just me, but it seems like it's collaboration station in the luxury designer world.

Versace teamed up with Lamborghini for the Murciélago LP640 Roadster and even created a special line of men's travel bags to complement them. Also inspired by the fusion of fashion and wheels, Chanel started with the quilted bag-adorned Segway and has now moved on to uncharted territory to create a Chanel concept car.

The brand joined forces with car designer Jinyoung Jo, from South Korea, to unveil the Chanel Fiole. The ultra streamlined design of the vehicle was "centered on simplicity of lines", something that Coco Chanel understood well.

The coupe is black and white and features a small interior with only three seats. The real icing on the cake, though, is the double-c Chanel logo adorning the front grille. I suppose anything with that emblem is sure to be a classic.
