2. Brand Study
Inspires most :
Gabrielle Bonheur "Coco" Chanel (19 August 1883 – 10 January
1971) was a French fashion designer of women's clothes and
founder of the Chanel brand.
Presently owned by Alain and Gerard Wertheimer, grandsons of
Pierre Wertheimer, who was an early business partner of the
couturière Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel.
Chanel is a high fashion house that specializes in haute couture
and ready-to-wear clothes, luxury goods and fashion accessories.
The House of Chanel is known for the “little black dress”, the
perfume No. 5 de Chanel, and the Chanel Suit. Chanel’s use of
jersey fabric produced garments that were comfortable and
affordable. Chanel revolutionized fashion — high fashion and
everyday fashion by replacing structured silhouettes, based
upon the corset and the bodice, with garments that were
functional and at the same time flattering to the woman’s figure.
Little Black Dress
Chanel introduced the "little black dress" in
1926, and it has become the epitome of chic. Her
first LBD was a slash-necked, short silk dress
with only diagonal pin-tucks as decoration.
Prior to the 1920s black was often reserved for
periods of mourning and considered indecent
when worn outside such circumstances, such as
depicted in John Singer Sargent's painting,
Portrait of Madame X.
Coco Chanel envisioned the LDB as the new
uniform for women for afternoon and evening
wear. Though apparently quite simple, these
dresses showed masterful cut and proportion.
She used traditional elegant materials like lace,
tulle, and soft weightless silks in a newly
tailored way. LBD intended to be long-lasting,
versatile, affordable, accessible to the widest
market possible and in a neutral color. Its
silhouette has changed over the years, but the
LBD remains supremely chic.
