Book Gabrielle Chanel
Chanel, one of the most successful fashion houses, owes much to Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel (1883-1971), whose famous designs such as the two-piece suit, the little black dress and the quilted handbag are still in fashion today. She designed primarily for herself, creating clothes for an independent lifestyle that anticipated the needs of the modern woman. This book features a selection of Chanel's best-known designs from her 60 years in fashion, mainly from the collections of the Patrimoine de CHANEL, Paris, and the V&A. It examines the cut, construction and provenance of the ensembles as well as the recurring design motifs. New photographs by Nicholas Alan Cope and archive images capture Chanel's unique fashion world.
