The House of Chanel, more commonly known as Chanel, is a Parisian fashion house founded by Gabrielle Bonheur “Coco” Chanel, and recognized as one of the most established in Haute Couture, specializing in luxury goods.
Chanel has always specialized in items such as simple suits, dresses, women’s pants, and costume jewelry.
Coco Chanel’s vision was to replace such opulent, sexy pieces with items which conveyed casual elegance.
Her designs and creations are timeless, considering that the basic silhouettes have remained consistent from generation to generation.
Today, Chanel is most famous for the “little black dress”, commonly referred to as LBD.
“Chanel is above all a style. Fashion passes, style remains.” Gabrielle Chanel
