Book – Chanel: Collection & Creations

Historians say that it was Louis XIV of France, also known as the Sun King, whom made France the couture capital of the world when he built Versailles and demanded his court to be the most fashionable in the world many centuries ago.

By comparison, Coco Chanel was, arguably, the Louis XIV of the modern age. Now, the House of Chanel is the authority on tradition, originality and style. Chanel: Collections and Creations will take you on a journey through five central themes of the fashion house – the suit, the camellia, jewellery, fragrances, make up and the little black dress – with the aid of both glorious photographs and original illustrations by Karl Lagerfeld.

For fashion and design fans, this book is a fantastic look at the way Chanel became a global icon of style.
