  • Coco Chanel Founder, Coco Chanel Story
    With a revenue of more than 12 billion dollars a year, #Chanel is one of the best known and most highly sought-after luxury fashion brands. Over the years, their iconic bags have become a fashion statement that signifies opulence, elegance, and class. But how many of us know of the founder’s unusual life story?
    A true visionary, #CocoChanel was ahead of her time, and her ideas were unconventional, to say the least. The trials of her grim childhood as an orphan gave birth to an extraordinary character. She ruled Parisian haute couture for almost six decades. And she symbolized a true before and after, not only in the way people saw fashion, but also in how they saw women. This is her story.

    Chanel was born on the same date as I. At 55 I opened a design studio. Her lesson to me is that it’s never too late.

    I am amazed that her name brand was a success by the time she decided to develope Chanel 5 and she signed a contract that was below her name brand ; that she had supportive & influential people around her & that she didn't seek legal council before signing away the most lucrative & easy venture to 2 hungry investors was unbelievable !! 😳

    She was a Nazi sympathiser and rabid anti semite, she didn't just have an affair with a Nazi soldier, she had a relationship until well after the war into the mid 1950s with Hans Günther von Dincklage, and also supported other SS officers financially who were actually convicted at the Nuremberg trials. But hey, she's such a wonderful woman.
