There are many names in fashion, but there is only one Coco Chanel. One of the most iconic clothing designers, CHANEL creates luxurious, premium clothing, handbags, and accessories. The following year she dressed the dancers of the Ballets russes in jersey bathing costumes and sports clothes similar to those seen in her fashion collections for the modern-realist production Le train bleu (1924).
Gwyneth Paltrow arrives for the Haute Couture collection presentation by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel, Tuesday. Within a few seasons of his tenure, Chanel became the most exciting and coveted ticket at Paris Fashion Week. Lagerfeld designed clothes as different as the companies he worked with — but nowhere more successfully than at Chanel.
Five years after Lagerfeld joined Chanel, his shows were the hottest ticket in Paris fashion week. Coco Chanel continued to work and design until her death at age eighty-eight. He has appeared in campaigns for the French brand, composed a song for an original film created by Karl Lagerfeld and collaborated on Adidas sneakers for a Chanel installation in Paris.
Chanel, however, produced designs for just three Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer productions: Palmy Days (1931), Tonight or Never (1931), and The Greeks Had a Word for nike vapormax baratas Them (1932). Diane von Furstenberg has designed a suite for Claridge’s in Central London, and Christian Lacroix’s Hotel Le Bellechasse in Paris shows off the designer’s love of sumptuous fabrics.
A few of its more iconic items include the little black dress, the perfume No. 5 de Chanel, and the Chanel suit. Lagerfeld was appointed chief designer of the house in 1982 and quickly worked out a blueprint for change. Chanel herself, then in her 70s, had come out of retirement to design these suits for women, and was lauded for making comfortable clothing that didn’t corset or pad a woman’s frame, the way Christian Dior’s New Look” dresses did.
