Dedication to Coco Chanel

1883 130 years ago one of the fashion industries icons were born.
Coco Chanel- 

'In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different'
I personally think one of her greatest quotes and Vogue thinks so to...

She and her brand are most known for costume jewellery , two-toned shoes, quilted bags and simplistic suits made of jersey and tweed. Within her suits were flattering lines, simple fabric and specially weighted lining to hold that perfect hang.The collarless jacket and well fitted skirt. Designs revolutionary for the era saying goodbye to the corsets that held women confined for years. Furthermore not forgetting the little black dress
'Dress Shabbily and they remember the dress, dress impeccably and they remember the women'. 
Not a truer quote from a true icon.
Impecable elegance yet simplistic style sums up Coco
Dying at age 88 its been 47 years since her death yet her name in fashion lives on through the house of Coco Chanel. One of the worlds most popular luxury brands, which continues to grow collection upon collection.

'Adornment, what a science! Beauty what a weapon! Modesty, what elegance!'
CHANEL-London
