I wanted to start with the greatest. The arguably the most important fashion house. The Great Chanel starting with the visionary Gabriel “Coco” Chanel. When starting her line Coco did not go with wild new looks- she went back to the basics- and made them into pieces you could own for a lifetime. With class, elegance and originality Coco ran the Chanel fashion house from 1907 till her death in 1971.
With her signature scent, purse, and suit the line has fast forwarded to 2009 with Karl Lagerfield bringing the classic with the new (HIS signature leather gloves)
A name so widely known that you can’t find one person who would not recognize the fashion power house. Try little girls with their Barbies, or currently the most flamboyant actor in Hollywood, even cartoons like the Simpsons want in on the beauty of Chanel.
