Marinière Blouse, Spring/Summer 1916
Silk jersey
This blouse, made from fine-gauge silk jersey, is one of the earliest surviving Chanel garments. Jersey made Chanel's name a force to be reckoned with in the world of French fashion. The humble fabric was previously a textile for underwear and stockings, but Chanel was the first to demonstrate its appeal for fashionable clothes. This blouse, inspired by collared fisherman's pullovers, would have been worn with a gathered skirt as part of a suit.*
