Chanel Fashion Review: Paper Dolls in Full Color

By Tom Tierney

The essential little black dress, the elegant suit with the gold-buttoned jacket, the freedom to wear slacks -- modern women still draw upon the innovations of Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel. The twentieth-century's fashion doyenne began her long and brilliant career by replacing the traditional corset with the comfort and casual grace of simple but exquisitely tailored outfits. This collection features three dolls and twenty-eight authentic costumes that illustrate Chanel's haute couture history and the enduring appeal and influence of her designs.
