Coco Chanel

Gabrielle Bonheur "Coco" Chanel was a French fashion designer and businesswoman. The founder and namesake of the Chanel brand, she was credited in the post–World War I era with popularizing a sporty, casual chic as the feminine standard of style.

In the 1920s, she launched her first perfume and eventually introduced the Chanel suit and the little black dress, with an emphasis on making clothes that were more comfortable for women. She herself became a much admired style icon known for her simple yet sophisticated outfits paired with great accessories, such as several strands of pearls.

Coco Chanel was a fashion designer known also for such now-classic innovations as the woman's suit, the quilted purse, costume jewelry, and the “little black dress.” She also introduced the phenomenally successful perfume Chanel No. 5. From 1913, she begins to sell a line of sportswear made of jersey, a material that was previously used to make men's underwear.

The most popular item in chanel will be "the 2.55 Handbag". Launched in February 1955 (thus the name), Coco Chanel herself designed the 2.55 to bring together everything she wanted from a bag.
