Fashion Advice from Coco Chanel

A wise woman once said: “Fashion fades, only style remains the same.” These are the words of a legendary designer Coco Chanel. She passed away in 1971, but until now the principles she introduced in life and fashion world in particular are still timely. She frankly believed that simplicity was the beauty. And this means that all those t-shirts, sneakers, leggings and jeans modern women love so much will never be compared to impeccable elegance of Chanel’s undying style.

Here are ten pieces of advice Coco Chanel gave to women throughout her life:
1. “Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury”. Both day and eveningwear from Chanel was made comfortable so that movements weren’t hindered. Low heels, sleeveless blouses under jackets, bags on long straps – all these were intended to provide woman with comfort. Coco Chanel never created fashion for fashion. Her clients’ comfort was above all for her.
