Almost 50 years after her death, Coco Chanel remains one of the world's
most influential fashion designers. Her story is one of creative
brilliance and innovation - she was a driving force in freeing women
from the restrictive clothing they had been obliged to wear for
generations. 'In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be
different, ' Chanel would say, and throughout her life she demonstrated
extraordinary passion and determination to change the world around her.
This little book is packed with memorable facts about Coco Chanel's life
and influence, and full of quotes from the icon herself and some of the
many people inspired by her. There is much wisdom to glean from Chanel's
self-reflections, while her sharp wit and joie de vivre will amuse,
surprise and inspire in equal measure.
