fashion would suck without Coco.

Ik houd van Coco Chanel. Wie niet? De ontwerpen zijn simpel, maar klassiek en stylish. Precies wat een outfit hoort te zijn. Het is haar gelukt een van de belangrijkste, misschien wel dé belangrijkste designer ter wereld te worden. Brengt Chanel iets nieuws op de catwalk? Andere ontwerpers volgen geheid. En in een vingerknip loopt heel mode- en sterrenwereld ermee. Haar leven is verfilmd, en er zijn vele biografieën over haar geschreven. Maar er is nog iets waardoor ze niet meer weg te denken is uit de fashionworld, haar uitspraken. Wereldberoemd zijn ze, en ze zijn helemaal waar.

I love Coco Chanel, who doesn't? The designs are simple, but classic and stylish. Just what a outfit should be. She made it to one of the most important designers in the world, maybe she is the most important.  But there is one other thing about her. A thing why you know she is in the fashionworld. Her quotes. They are famous, and hell yes, they are so true!

'A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.'

“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”

''As long as you know that men are like children, you know everything.'' 

“Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.”

''The best colour in the whole world, is the one that looks good, on you.''

“If a man talks bad about all women, it usually means he was burned by one woman.”

“I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little - if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny.”

“Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.”

''There are people who have money and people who are rich.''

“Elegance does not consist in putting on a new dress.”

“Fashion is made to become unfashionable.”

“Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions.”
