Coco Chanel; The Legend and the Life by Justine Picardie (Book Review)

About the book

In Coco Chanel &#; The Legend and the Life, Justine Picardie attempts to unravel the true history of one of fashion&#;s most intriguing icons.

The book chronicles Chanel&#;s eventful life, beginning with a childhood of poverty and abandonment in rural France.

The tale weaves through Chanel&#;s various metamorphoses; seamstress, singer, rich man&#;s plaything, to her burgeoning career making hats, and later clothes, for the darlings of French high society.

As well as documenting the birth and rise of the House of Chanel, Picardie also explores the stories behind the infamous perfume, diamonds, handbags and, of course, trademark jersey suits, with insights into how these designs were born and the influences that lead to Chanel&#;s inspired vision for women&#;s clothing.

Beyond the world of haute couture, the book also examines the many facets of Chanel&#;s life and personality; her friendships and alliances, her business acumen, her politics, her various homes, her passionate love affairs and heartbreaking tragedy.

Throughout the book, Picardie attempts to tease out the facts from the many myths and Chanel&#;s own embellishments (or, on occasion, absolute lies).

The result is a reverent

This biography follows Chanel from the birth of the lady behind the legend and the inception of the brand that revolutionized fashion &#; twice &#; right up until her passing. It is thorough and detailed in a way that is quite surprising considering so much of her early life has been shrouded in mystery or been deliberately left inconclusive by Mademoiselle Chanel herself.

Justine Picardie has written an insightful and interesting biography of Coco Chanel and all of the major characters that shared in her life. The men that Coco shared affairs with are introduced with complete back stories so we feel that we are really getting to know them as well. Friends and family that helped to shape the lady that Chanel w
