In order to offset raw material costs amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Chanel announced that it has increased the prices of its iconic handbags Chanel showed its Greece-themed cruise collection in Paris last week Reuters in an e-mail statement:
“The price adjustments only regard Chanel’s iconic handbags, 11.12 and 2.55, as well as Boy, Gabrielle, Chanel 19 bags and certain small leather goods.

Initially enforced in France with an increased range of 5 to 17 percent (in euros), shoppers in China and Seoul immediately started lining up outside Chanel stores shortly after the news was announced on May 13. According to the South China Morning Post, “longer than usual Fashion formed at Chanel stores in China” before the price raises were implemented. Face-masked customers also arrived outside a Chanel store in Seoul as early as 5 a.m. KST. Other luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Tiffany & Co. have also had to execute the same measures in South Korea, with an increase of up to 11 percent. Critics suspect that high-end labels are taking advantage of Korean consumers due to the country easing social distancing rules.
