The Story Behind: Chanel began to add gloves and accessories for snow into its luxury ready-to-wear collections, notably under the impetus of Karl Lagerfeld, who extensively developed the “Sports & Ski” collections in the 1980s and 1990s. Although the brand acquired the specialist glove maker Causse in 2012, high-end winter accessories have been part of the brand’s DNA for several decades.
Sport/Ski Collections: Snow gloves, featuring the iconic logo, are a regular feature in Chanel’s winter collections.
“The Causse workshop is a long-standing partner of Karl Lagerfeld and the Chanel design studio for his haute couture and ready-to-wear collections,” Causse produced gloves in Millau (Aveyron) in France.: They are a rare and Traditional French gloves maker. Four generations of the family have succeeded one another at the helm of Causse gloves. The acquisition of Causse (a company founded in 1892) by Chanel’s subsidiary Paraffection in 2012 strengthened the production of high-end gloves, including technical models for snow.
