‎THE LITTLE BOOK OF CHANEL BY LAGERFELD ‎

‎, Welbeck, 2022 Hardcover , ENG, 185 x 130 mm, NEW, illustrated in colour. ISBN 9781802790160.‎

‎The House of Chanel is synonymous with not one, but two, iconic designers. First there was Gabrielle, and then there was Karl. Chanel is a house known for its signatures that not only changed the course of fashion history but still resonate today - the Little Black Dress, the tweed suit, costume jewellery, Chanel No5. These signatures were inspired by Gabrielle Chanel's taste, life experience and travels - but it was Karl Lagerfeld who took these signatures and ingeniously adapted them for the twenty-first century woman. From his first days at the helm of Chanel in the 1980s, to his creative application of the Chanel logo to everything from biker boots to a space rocket, King Karl's reign at Chanel is nothing if not legendary. Little Book of Chanel by Lagerfeld covers his most exquisite pieces, breathtaking catwalk shows and constant reinvention that have maintained Chanel as the most illustrious couture house in the world. Written by the bestselling author of Little Book of Chanel, this beautifully illustrated book is the essential guide to Lagerfeld's tenure at Chanel.‎

‎Ce catalogue révèle les "icônes" Chanel, grâce au texte de Françoise Aveline et aux illustrations de Michael Roberts qui subliment le style Chanel. "En décidant de réaliser une plaquette sur les Éléments d'identification instantanée de Chanel (la formule est de Karl Lagerfeld) la maison entend capitaliser sur ce qui fait la différence du style grâce à quoi, n'importe où dans le monde, une création de Chanel est immédiatement reconnaissable et ne se confond avec aucune autre. (...)" (in "Traits séduisants" de Alain Lachartre, Éditions Scala, 2006). "Chanel concentra dans quelques éléments, en vérité essentiels, un esprit composite fait d'intuition, d'expérience et de références intimes. Les chaînes, les boutons, le sac matelassé, le camélia, la chaussure bicolore ou les bijoux fantaisies sont devenus pour le monde entier la griffe de la célèbre Maison (...) Ainsi, mêlés à des créations très actuelles, teintés parfois de provocation, se retrouvent ces éléments intemporels" (in la Préface). In-fine six planches de stickers repositionnables, à coller sur la silhouette de Gabrielle Chanel, reproduite comme une ombre chinoise. Face au succès de ce catalogue, destiné aux rédactrices de mode, il fut commandé 15.000 exemplaires, distribué aux clientes Chanel. Très bel exemplaire. ‎

‎World of Coco Chanel. Friends, Fashion, Fame‎

‎, Thames and Hudson, 2005 Hardcover, bound with dustjacket, 383pp., 20.5x26.5cm., lavishly illustr.in col. and b/w., very good copy. ISBN 9780500512166.‎

‎Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel is an icon of fashion, and can lay claim to having invented the look of the 20th century. At the height of the Belle Epoque, she stripped women of their corsets and feathers, bobbed their hair, put them in bathing suits and sent them out to get tanned in the sun. She introduced the little black dress; trousers for women; costume jewelry; the exquisitely comfortable suit that became her trademark. Early in the Roaring Twenties, Chanel made the first ever couture perfume - No. 5 - presenting it in the famous little square-cut flagon that, inspired by Picasso and Cubism, became the arch symbol of the Art Deco style. No. 5 remains the most popular scent ever created. Chanel knew instinctively that the road to success lay in being absolutely at one with her own time. And what a time! The era of Picasso, Diaghilev, Stravinsky, Cocteau, Jean Renoir, Visconti - all of whom 'Coco' knew and collaborated with, even as she matched their modernist innovations by liberating women from the prison of 19th-century fashion and creating a whole new concept of elegance. Chanel went everywhere and knew everyone and, as this sumptuously illustrated volume clearly shows, her life and accomplishment - even her chronic failure in love - constitute one of the great stories of the modern age. Her life is eminently suited to the lavish visual treatment of this handsome volume, which features more than 600 illustrations from an extraordinary collection amassed over the years by Edmonde Charles-Roux, Chanel's official biographer and close friend. An authoritative and practised writer, Charles-Roux has used careful research and vivid eyewitness accounts to set the pictures in their context of time and place. She makes Chanel live again!‎
