My Favorite Designer- Coco Chanel


Coco Chanel was and is such an inspiration in the fashion world. Chanel's clothes were designed to free the woman from stiff clothing and make her feel independent, successful, and confident. Coco revolutionized the fashion of her day and in my opinion is the defintion of "Girl Power".

Chanel invented the little black dress which was versatile; it can be worn in either day or night time. This famous dress was shown in Playboy and caused controversy. I love how Coco Chanel was never afraid to take risks. She was always designing to impower women.

Even after Coco Chanel died in 1971, her empire lives on. Now her empire also produces perfume and make-up as well as clothing and accessories. Her chic style also lives on with her empire and I hope it stays around forever.
