the best-selling, most abundantly illustrated biography available of fashion icon coco chanel, written by her close friend and chosen official biographer

gabrielle “coco” chanel (1883–1971) is a fashion icon unlike any other, arguably the most influential designer of the twentieth century, whose creations remain as popular today as when they were introduced a century ago. she invented modern, chic clothing for women: she freed them from corsets, bobbed their hair, put them in simple bathing suits, and sent them out to get tanned in the sun. she introduced slacks, costume jewelry, the exquisitely comfortable and elegant knit suit, the “little black dress,” and the now-ubiquitous quilted handbag. she made the first couture perfume—no. 5—which remains the most popular scent ever created. and she knew and collaborated with the leading creative minds of her day: the likes of picasso, diaghilev, stravinsky, cocteau, jean renoir, and visconti—as she matched their modernist innovations by liberating women from the prison of nineteenth-century fashion and introducing a whole new concept of style.

in this beautiful volume, the glorious life and world of the incomparable coco chanel shines again through lively text and a staggering collection of photographs amassed by author edmonde charles-roux—the dear friend who chanel chose as her biographer—shedding new light on one of the great stories of the modern age.

from the onset of her career, charlotte perriand was a maverick who believed in good design as a force for the betterment of society. many young designers would have been discouraged by a rejection from le corbusier’s studio, but when the renowned architect told her there was no place for a female furniture designer, perriand became even more determined to prove her abilities as an artist. under le corbusier, and long after leaving his studio, perriand’s contributions to furniture design and architecture demonstrated a unique sensitivity to the organic beauty of nature as well as the egalitarian possibilities of the machine age. her left-wing populist politics influenced much of her work, from modular furniture systems to major architectural projects.

this monograph explores perriand’s most celebrated interiors, original furniture designs, and architectural projects, as well as previously unpublished sketchbooks that offer new insight into her creative process and her lasting place in design history.

charlotte perriand (1903–99) experienced her first major breakthrough with le bar sous le toit, a 1927 interior design project that anticipated the elegant minimalism and utilitarian qualities that would define her later work. although she is perhaps best known today for her early chaise longue designs, perriand also developed plans for major buildings across europe and contributed interior designs to le corbusier’s unité d’habitation. she worked in locations as diverse as tokyo, rio de janeiro, and london in pursuit of creating accessible, human-centered design.
