What sort of person was Coco Chanel?

Some people say she was harsh and ruthless and a compulsive liar but i disagree with this. I think that she did what she had to do. In those days she wouldn't have made it if she didnt lie about her past. she was supposedly homophobic and hated Jews. i find that hard to believe but if that is true well people conveniently forget that most people were homphobic, in those days it was considered evil to be homsexual. how can people judge her but forget that she was brought up in the Victorian time when their views were so diffrent. she was very independent perhaps slightly spoilt, she would do anything to get her own way but i look as this as being independent, she knew what she wanted and she knew how to get it. She was classy and elegant and obviously very ambitous and motivated to get where she did. :) hope this helped xx
