My Inspiration.
My inspiration is Gabrielle Bonheur or many people know her as "Coco" Chanel. She was a french fashion designer and businesswoman who was born in 19 August 1883 to Eugénie Jeanne Devolle Chanel, known as Jeanne. She is the only fashion designer listed on Time magazine list of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century. Let's see the start of her career and her early life first.
When Gabrielle was 11, her mother died, and her father abandoned her to an orphanage. After a brief stint as a shopgirl, Chanel worked for a few years as a café singer. She later became associated with a few wealthy men and in 1913, with financial assistance from one of them, Arthur Capel, opened a tiny millinery shop in Deavuille, France, where she also sold simple sportswear, such as jersey sweaters. Within five years her original use of jersey fabric to create a “poor girl” look had attracted the attention of influential wealthy women seeking relief from the prevalent corseted styles. By the late 1920s the Chanel industries were reportedly worth millions and employed more than 2,000 people, not only in her couture house but also in a perfume laboratory, a textile mill, and a jewelry workshop.
Why i choose Coco Chanel to be my inspiration in this work? Because first of all i love fashion, model and brands. I used to watch Victoria's secret fashion show every year and i really love to watch 'Next Top Model' from all round the world. I love her because Coco Chanel is such a hard-working woman and i love how she created the legend 'Chanel' brand. She such an icon in this industry. And i love how she made all of her clothing line and everything. I wish i can be like her in the future.
