Coco Chanel needs no introduction – the whole world knows her. Numerous books have been written about her, and many films have been made – some good, some bad, some accurate, and others not so much. Geniuses often provoke in people an irresistible urge to elevate, glorify, and sing their praises, but they also inspire slander, humiliation, and trampling. Geniuses, even after their death, remain controversial enigmas that subsequent generations try to unravel.
The best insight into Chanel's character comes from Chanel herself – many of her precise, sharp, arrow-like sayings have long become quotes and have taken flight as winged phrases. This book collects them all! Upon opening it, the reader will see the world through Coco's eyes and feel her attitude toward fashion, sewing, style, elegance, jewelry, perfumes, colors, work, ideas, luxury, time... They will see Coco through Coco's eyes!
The words of the great Chanel, like the famous 'little black dress,' will never go out of style and will always remain remarkably relevant.
