Who or what influenced Coco Chanel?

Someone had to think up the ideas. That was Chanel! I have been a life-long fan of Chanel.

I truly feel that she was an innovator with her own sense of style. I would guess that her major influences were Paris itself, and the Roaring 20's. As a young woman in the early years of the 20th century, she wanted to move away from the confining fashions of the Victorian Era.

Her free-flowing styles with the shorter hemline, her bobbed hair, and strategically placed pins and brooches were a big hit as the 20's roared in. The long necklace chains and stunning jewels came after WWII with her signature suits. Good Luck with your essay.

Check out this website for her background: http://www.richeast.org/htwm/CHANEL/CC.H… And, her TV movie of course: http://coquette.blogs. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
