Description
The Real Coco Chanel
Condition: BRAND NEW ISBN: 9781526761019 Author(s): Rose Sgueglia Format: Hardcover Language: English Year: 2020 Publisher: Pen & Sword Books Ltd Pages: 224
Description: Coco Chanel lived her own life as a romantic heroine. Fuelled by 19th century literature, she built a life which was partly myth and, partly, factual. She was the fashion designer everyone admired. The business woman whose fortune was impossible to track. She was also a performer, lover of many high profile intellectuals and, as believed by many, a nazi spy. Her life was, extraordinarily, affected by history (the nazi movement and World War II), symbolism and literature. This biography explores her life from her troubled and poor past to the opening of her first hat shop, passions and secrets; the biography also draws parallelisms between myths and facts and how, and if ever, they match at all. The biography also features chapters on the Chanel Maison and the creation of her iconic trademark as well as her little black dress' and Chanel No 5'. Finally, the biography ends with a reflection on how the myth of Coco Chanel is represented today in pop culture. AUTHOR: Rose Sgueglia is a writer and marketing consultant based in Cardiff.
