Little Book of Chanel
This monograph on Coco Chanel chronicles the life and legacy of one of history's most influential couturiers.
A beautiful and elegant hardback gift purchase that's a must-have for every fashionista. Images include sketches and illustrations by Karl Lagerfeld, fashion photography by Cecil Beaton, Horst P Horst and Edward Steichen, as well as specially commissioned photographs of vintage pieces.
From her early days of millinery, through her revolutionary inventions in sportswear and jersey fashions for women, the classics that have made her name, such as the Chanel cardigan jacket and the little black dress, to the global empire of the brand under the helm of Karl Lagerfeld, this beautifully illustrated book offers a fascinating account of Chanel's evolution and innovation.
Detailed photographs and sketches of her designs, along with fashion photography and catwalk shots, pay tribute to one of the world's most highly regarded fashion houses and the woman behind it.
