Mademoiselle Coco Chanel



Coco Chanel (1883-1971) made stylish clothes more practical. She was famous for her timeless designs, trademark suits, and little black dresses. She was a style icon known for her simple yet sophisticated outfits paired with great accessories, such as several strands of pearls.
 
Here are my favorite quotes of Coco Chanel.

"Nature gives you the face you have at twenty; it is up to you to merit the face you have at fifty."

"A beautiful dress may look beautiful on a hanger, but that means nothing. It must be seen on the shoulders, with the movement of the arms, the legs, and the waist."


"Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.”


“A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.”


"Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door."

"Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions. "
 

"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening. "

"I am not young but I feel young. The day I feel old, I will go to bed and stay there. J'aime la vie! I feel that to live is a wonderful thing. "
