Productinformatie
Gabrielle Chanel, celebrated for her extraordinary foresight in fashion, revolutionized the industry with her sleek, minimalist luxury. She transformed humble materials like jersey and tweed into high fashion staples, crafting a chic yet modest silhouette that reshaped 20th-century style. Chanel's designs freed women from the constraints of traditional attire, mirroring wider societal changes. The fashion house she established continues to influence modern style, with Karl Lagerfeld, her successor, rejuvenating the brand by melding Chanel's timeless legacy with his own creative flair. Lagerfeld's method of revamping an established label set the standard for contemporary fashion houses. Assouline's revised edition, "Chanel: The Legend of an Icon," beautifully chronicles this legacy, featuring a curated collection of one hundred iconic designs and insightful commentary by Alexander Fury, showcasing Chanel's lasting influence through both historical and modern visuals
