Coco Chanel

Coco Chanel has been one of the first and most enduring icons. Her signature scent, Chanel No. 5, still sells at a rate of one bottle every 30 seconds. That one perfect classic "little black dress" popularized in the 1920s is still a fashion must. Chanel believed in simple designs worn in a variety of ways, in the same way a man's suit can be changed with a new necktie. Chanel breathed fashion as she described it this way: "Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the trees, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening."
