Coco Chanel

History of Women's Fashion in the Twentieth Century Upper class people dominated fashion during the period from1900 to 1909. Only rich people enjoyed high fashion because the tradition of hand craftsmanship was slow, detailed work, and it was expensive. Therefore, most people could not afford trendy clothes. Rich people controlled fashion because fashion was a symbol of social status. The formal style was extraordinary, and ladies wore many clothes--for example, chemise, corset, corset cover, drawers, a flannel petticoat, and one or more cotton petticoats. About 1908, a new style of fashion began. The concept of the new style was the natural woman's figure. The new fashion expressed the new status of women. Women started to enter a variety of careers and new ways of living. During World War I, women took over men's jobs, and the traditional pompous clothes disappeared. After the war, the development of fashion was influenced by the new attitude of women.

The small 2.55 Reissue (225) now costs 3900 USD. A new Chanel bag worth owning will cost well over 3000K. You can get a bag for a better price at any of the legitimate shopping sites that offer used luxury goods. Remember - buyer beware - check on the site's legitimacy before purchasing. You can also start bidding on EBAY. But, remember, these bags, when new, are very expensive. Used bags will also be costly. If you see one for under a thousand it is either a fake or in bad condition.

She brought classic, simple and comfortable clothes into the fashion world. Her pieces are timeless and give off attitude and indepence.

An orphan in all practical senses, Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel was raised in a bare-bones boarding school, where the girls earned their keep by learning and plying the trade of the seamstress. After leaving the school/orphanage, she lived as a live-in mistress to a wealthy man who would (in joint effort with a man who was the Love of Chanel's Life) finance her first hat shoppe. She would parlay its success into an eventual empire.

She was at the time, the only dress-maker in 'society'. Before then it was a strictly ' middle- class' job. xx

Coco Chanel was one of the most influential people in fashion. Even though she started off dirt poor, she promoted women's equality in their wear. She made the first jersey suit, the first perfume, the first little black dress, and a lot of new things that were different from the corsets and hoop skirts. Coco Chanel lead women away from their corset prisons and designed clothing that made women comfortable and younger. She won a couple of awards and has millions of designs out there.

She is from Paris, France.

Coco Chanel was a pioneering French fashion designer whose modernist philosophy, menswear-inspired fashions, and pursuit of expensive simplicity made her an important figure in 20th-century fashion. Her influence on haute couture was such that she was the only person in the field to be named on TIME Magazine's 100 most influential people of the 20th century.
