Inspiration Files Coco Chanel
I know everyone loves her. There are fashion gospels that follow her style doctrines. There are books that villainize her. But to me, Gabrielle is the woman who came from nothing, not much of an education by today`s standards and created an empire with nothing but her style. Knowledge doesn`t always mean intelligence or talent. She has proved that quite well.
