The Pocket Chanel

A charismatic character, Chanel created relaxed clothing, made for comfort and activity, liberating women from the confines of corsets. This pocket-sized celebration of her life and work reveals her humble origins, rise to fame and key pieces.
From the little black dress and the 2.55 handbag to costume jewellery and Chanel No. 5 perfume, her simple and elegant designs were so novel and original that they changed fashion for ever.
