A brilliant conspiracy story

In late 2021 a fabulous exhibition was shown in Australia – ‘Gabrielle Chanel: Fashion Manifesto’. Held at the National Gallery in Melbourne, this exhibition displayed items not seen by the public before, and examined the legacy of this remarkable woman. Chanel introduced the Little Black Dress, she made women feel not only elegant but also comfortable in their clothes, and one of the perfumes she created is the biggest selling perfume of all time. She dressed the rich and famous, simplified feminine style, designed handbags and hats, and changed the way that women dressed. Chanel is, quite rightly, considered one of the 100 most important people of the 20th century.

Chanel was famously secretive, presenting many versions of her own life story to the public. Her father abandoned his family and her mother died when Gabrielle was still young, so she was sent to a convent. Just $15, purchase access here.

    I thoroughly recommend the film “Coco before Chanel”, an arthouse film from about 10 years ago.
