An inspiring & powerful woman. Gabrielle "Coco" Channel.

In the world of fashion there have been many important people who have been able to change the clothes, accessories and styles for many years. Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel is one of the few people who have done anything to get people to appreciate fashion the way she does. Coco Chanel is a resilient person because of the way she pulled through after setting goals to become a famous fashion icon internationally and remain as a historical fashion statement.

Coco started having different sorts of styles. She was very broad to what she wanted to make. “The sky was her limit” she wouldn’t say what she made but surprised many people with her outstanding work of art. A perfect example would be that in 1922 Coco launched the famous fragrance “Chanel No. 5” which remains popular until this day. It was invented in 1921 by Earnest Beaux and named because of the “fifth scent” that he presented to his client Gabrielle Coco Chanel. Fashion is not something a person could just pass on to be a simple thing. Fashion is like art, it has nothing to compare to because of its own hidden beauty that people are welcome to wear (Artists and Entertainers). One of the things Chanel had to work towards her fashion industry that made her become a resilient person was that all the accessories and clothes she made was because she wanted to change the fashion statements from previous designers and to change their opinion from the day they started to hate it. One of her biggest goals she had to face was to change their point of view of the people who hated her work. Throughout time she accomplished it by making more clothes, making some improvements and showing more people what she had.

Since she loved the theater she wanted to contribute by making some of the costumes for the stage. Plays like “Octeapus Antigone” (1973) and “Oedipus Reso” (1937). She took a big part also by making costumes for cinematic works such as “La Regie De Jeu” (The time 100). By that time she had also opened a couture saloon in Biarritz in 1916 through 1920 (Biography Channel). By that time Coco Chanel had been already known as the start of a new fashion era.
