Founded by the legendary Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel in 1909, the Parisian fashion house is a landmark designer of Haute Couture, with countless iconic products produced over its first century and since. Its style has become something of a cultural heritage; be it the camellia brooch or the quilted handbag, Chanel's fingerprint is unique in every design. Its mission statement has always remained the same: "Fashion passes, style remains", and it more than explains why Coco herself and those that have come after have constantly re-invented high jewellery, luxury watches, fragrances and more, by dispensing an uncomplicated worldwide luxury.
