Description

"In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different" - Coco Chanel Fashion is ever-changing, influenced by the key designers that capture a moment in history; and Coco Chanel is arguably the most significant influence on women's fashion in the twentieth century. Coco Chanel: The Illustrated World of a Fashion Icon is a compilation of Megan Hess' stunning illustrations of the 100 most quintessential moments through Chanel's history, from Coco's incredible life, to the impact of Karl Lagerfeld and the incredible items that have become fashion icons - the little black dress, the luxurious bags and accessories, glamorous jewellery and of course the renowned Chanel No 5 perfume. Interspersed with historical anecdotes and famous quotes from Coco herself, Karl Lagerfeld and other key fashion icons of the era, this book is an elegant and immersive introduction to the moments that shaped Coco and the iconic Chanel brand - and how fashion, in turn, shaped their lives.

  • Amazing view of the Chanel world
Love the illustrations, writing and respect for the brand I originally read this in a Nordstrom and regret not buying it then because when I returned they were out of stock. Glad to have it now!

  • Coco Chanel
This hardcover pictoral book offers a great history of Coco Chanel in a condensed manner. It covers everything on her from a young age through her heyday of being a fashion icon, all achieved through short sentences with sketches all in black and white which is very fitting. I am enjoying discovering more about Coco Chanel & her life & successes. It was shipped quickly & packaged well to protect it which I appreciate. Thank you. ... show more

  • Love it
The media could not be loaded. I bought this book to decore the entrance of my house, the book is lovely and the colors very elegant. They have to improve the packaging because it came a bit damage but I’m happy overall

  • Captivating Storytelling Through Design
This is an AMAZING little book. It not only provides a short background of the making of the Chanel empire, it captures the style of the designer herself. I thoroughly enjoyed it and all of the illustrations. Captivating! If you love fashion design, you’ll love this book.
