Coco Chanel 1930s Fashion - Bing

A beautifully illustrated picture-book biography of French fashion designer Coco Chanel (1883-1971). Born into a poor family, strictly brought up in an orphanage, and influenced by the style of wealthy suitors, she remained faithful throughout her life to a luxurious simplicity which has produced memorable style icons like the little black dress and perfume Chanel No. 5.

After becoming the creative director of Chanel in 1983, Karl Lagerfeld quickly set about revolutionizing the fashion scene of the 1980s. A deliberately realistic elegance and a perfect evolution of the style already defined by Coco Chanel went hand-in-hand with the clothing. Every piece created by Lagerfeld at this time masterfully captured the energy of the decade. Take a look back at some of his most memorable pieces from the 1980s in these vintage photographs.
