5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful color photos throughout
Gabrielle Chanel's contributions to modern fashion are many: while much has been written on her colorful, controversial life; Chanel Key Collections focuses on her fashion styles which contributed to her fame.

This appears to be a vanity press publication about the House of Chanel, and not, as I had hoped, a book devoted to Coco Chanel's fashions. Of approximately 160 pages about fashion, only 110 pages concern Coco Chanel's designs.

The good news is that the book contains many photos of Coco Chanel's clothes that I had never seen before (and how gorgeous they...

This review is from: Chanel: Key Collections (Hardcover)
This appears to be a vanity press publication about the House of Chanel, and not, as I had hoped, a book devoted to Coco Chanel's fashions. Of approximately 160 pages about fashion, only 110 pages concern Coco Chanel's designs.

The good news is that the book contains many photos of Coco Chanel's clothes that I had never seen before (and how gorgeous they look, too, after all these years). The bad news is that the rest of the book is about Karl Lagerfeld, the current head designer for Chanel. Since I dislike Lagerfeld's clothes, this was a disappointment.

Given the high price of this book, be aware of what you're buying.

Very beautiful and informative book for Chanel fans and people who wants to know about great fashion house foundation. Reading this book I felt like during my fashion design practise at PPUPPY couture house - charming, excited and in love with fashion.
