A two-day KERN1 shop in Amsterdam in December 2025, devoted entirely to little black Chanel jackets from the 1980s and 1990s.

Around forty of Chanel’s most recognisable and sought-after examples from the period were assembled in one space, each carefully restored and presented alongside the original Chanel lookbooks from these collections. Among them were iconic pieces such as the Spring 1993 contrast “Scoubidou” jacket, the 1997 "Alphabet" jacket, and a design for Fall 1995 known as the "Popcorn' jacket. Conceived as a rare and highly focused experience, the event marked a world first: a shop dedicated solely to exceptional archival Chanel little black jackets, presented in their original context and intended to be experienced in person.
