Chanel. The story of a fashion house. Baxter-Right E.

Having returned to Paris in 1954 after a protracted exile, 71-year-old Coco Chanel presented her new collection, and, as before, made a splash in the fashion world. What moved it remains only guessing, as well as who Chanel herself was... From an early age she surrounded herself with a myth and played a role brilliantly. Masterningly combined the history of its difficult past with a reputation as a world -famous designer. This book talks about the fate and heritage of the fashion legend, about the evolution and innovation of the fashion house for a century. From the first steps of the hat business and creating iconic things that glorified the name Chanel: a small black dress, a tweed costume and an artificial pearl to a global empire led by the inimitable Karl Lagerfeld.
