Every year. Every significant moment. Every groundbreaking collection. This is the sweeping story of the iconic House of Chanel, from its foundation to its future.
When Coco Chanel founded her maison, she was starting a fashion revolution. From her innovative inventions in sportswear and jersey fashions for women, to the classics that made her name, such as the Chanel cardigan jacket, little black dress and exquisite perfumes, all the way through Karl Lagerfeld's stewardship and to the present, this exquisitely illustrated history of the house explores every milestone that has made Chanel a legendary name.
Each year will be explored through photographs and illustrations of the key outfits, fragrances and accessories, developments in the themes and design direction of the pieces, and expert deep dives into the presentations, reception in the fashion world and wider significance in the story of fashion.
Discover over a century of style in this definitive new series.
