Chanel- is a top-tier French women's fashion private company founded in 1910 by Coco Chanel (August 19, 1883 – January 10, 1971). It is owned by Alain Wertheimer and Gérard Wertheimer, grandsons of Pierre Wertheimer, an early business partner of founder Coco Chanel. Initially, this small shop was just a hat store. In 1912, Coco moved the store to 31 Rue Cambon, located next to Place Vend?me.
Chanel? is a luxury company specializing in haute couture and ready-to-wear, luxury goods, and accessories. As a fashion designer, Coco Chanel catered to women's desire for elegant attire, designing simple tops and suits, trousers, dresses, and jewelry (gemstones and costume jewelry) to replace the cumbersome, over-designed, and restrictive clothing and accessories popular in the 19th century. The elegant and revolutionary little black dress, along with the widely popular Chanel suit—an elegant design consisting of a knee-length skirt and a tailored short jacket, traditionally made of tweed with black trim and gold buttons, often paired with a long string of pearls—are iconic.
