Under her tight reign from 1909-1971, Gabrielle Chanel held the title as ‘Chief Designer’ until her death on January 10, 1971.In 1909, Chanel opened a millinery shop, under the name of ‘Chanel Modes’, at 21 Rue Cambon in Paris.Her hats were worn by famous French actresses who helped establish her reputation.

Chanel introduced in 1913 women’s sportswear at her new boutique in Deauville, France.

Her fashion became known in 1915 throughout France .She then opened her first couture house in Biarritz, France in1921, to introduce her other fashion lines.

The perfume No. 5 was created after a fortune teller told Coco Chanel that her lucky number was five.
It was released on the fifth day of the fifth month of the year, May 5th 1921.
It was internationally popular with women of high society in particular. “The first Chanel costume jewelery collection was introduced in 1924. Harper’s Bazaar described it as “one of the most revolutionary designs of our time.”
In 1926, Chanel introduced the ‘little black dress,’（黑色迷你裙） greeted by Vogue《时尚 》as the ‘new uniform of the modern woman.’ That same year, Chanel introduced the classic tweed（传统斜纹软呢） .Chanel premiered（首次举行） an exhibition of jewelery in 1932 dedicated to the diamond. Several of the pieces, including the ‘Comet’（彗星） and ‘Fountain’ （喷泉)necklaces were re-introduced by Chanel in 1993.
After the World War Two, Chanel re-opened the couture house in 1954.
In February 1955, Chanel introduced the quilted bag with the shoulder strap(肩带）, named the 2.55 bag after the month and year of its creation.
That same year, Chanel launched her first perfume for men, Pour Monsieur（绅士）.In 1957 at the Fashion Awards in Dallas, Chanel and her spring collection received the Fashion Oscar. The fashion world applauded her as the ‘most influential designer of the twentieth century.’

Chanel S.A. (/ʃəˈnɛl/; French: [ʃaˈnɛl]) is a French, privately held company owned by Alain and Gerard Wertheimer, grandsons of Pierre Wertheimer, who was an early business partner of the couturière Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel. Chanel S.A. is a high fashion house that specializes in haute couture and ready-to-wear clothes, luxury goods and fashion accessories.[1] In her youth, Gabrielle Chanel gained the nickname Coco from her time as a chanteuse. As a fashion designer, Coco Chanel catered to women’s taste for elegance in dress, with blouses and suits, trousers and dresses, and jewellery (gemstone and bijouterie) of simple design, that replaced the opulent, over-designed, and constrictive clothes and accessories of 19th-century fashion. The Chanel product brands have been personified by fashion models and actresses, including Inès de la Fressange, Catherine Deneuve, Carole Bouquet, Vanessa Paradis, Nicole Kidman, Anna Mouglalis, Lucía Hiriart, Hope Portocarrero, Audrey Tautou, Keira Knightley and Marilyn Monroe.[2]

The House of Chanel is known for the “little black dress”, the perfume No. 5 de Chanel, and the Chanel Suit. Chanel’s use of jersey fabric produced garments that were comfortable and affordable.[3] Chanel revolutionized fashion — high fashion (haute couture) and everyday fashion (prêt-à-porter) — by replacing structured-silhouettes, based upon the corset and the bodice, with garments that were functional and at the same time flattering to the woman’s figure.

In the 1920s, the simple-line designs of Chanel couture made popular the "flat-chested" fashions that were the opposite of the hourglass-figure achieved by the fashions of the late 19th century — the Belle Époque of France (ca. 1890–1914), and the British Edwardian Era (ca. 1901–1919). Chanel used masculine colours, such as grey and navy blue, to denote feminine boldness of character.[4][5] The clothes of the House of Chanel featured quilted fabric and leather trimmings; the quilted construction reinforces the fabric, the design and the finish, producing a garment that maintains its form and function while being worn. An example of such haute couture techniques is the woolen Chanel suit — a knee-length skirt and a cardigan-style jacket, trimmed and decorated with black embroidery and gold-coloured buttons. The complementary accessories were two-tone pump shoes and jewellry (gemstone and bijouterie), usually a necklace of pearls, and a leather handbag.追问
