Julian's Martha Stewart? Meet Paris' Coco Chanel!


Coco Chanel is a memorable icon who inspires many and was a huge fashion icon. She was born August 19th, 1883 and started selling hats in the 1910’s. From that, she began making clothes. In 1921, she launched Chanel No. 5, the first perfume to feature a designer’s name, and it became rapidly popular. Chanel’s most famous design would be the little black dress. She impressed many with her copacetic quotes and her inspiring sense of style. The company Chanel still makes clothing, perfume, and makeup that are considered very valuable. Coco Chanel did almost everything for her image. She represents Theme 5 because her image was part of her. She lived for her image, only doing things for the publicity. One of her most famous quotes is “Fashion is made to become unfashionable.” This is saying that she knows something might be “in” now, but it will always go out of style. Today, she is still a memorable fashion icon that many look up to.
