Coco Chanel
Coco Chanel was a French fashion designer who founded the Chanel brand and revolutionized women's fashion in the early twentieth century.
Born Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel, she introduced comfortable, elegant designs that liberated women from corseted silhouettes, popularizing jersey fabric, the little black dress, and Chanel No. 5 perfume.
Her name remains synonymous with timeless luxury and understated sophistication in fashion.
