Inspiration: Coco Chanel, The Woman Who Changed Fashion
![]() |
Coco Chanel |
The most inspiration that Chanel has
been to me is learning that she died at home in her bed with a needle and
thread in her hand, sewing until the very end. This has inspired me that no
matter how hard life is, and no matter what obstacles I come across, I should
keeping fighting and continue doing what I love until the end.
I would cross-oceans; give up anything,
to meet Coco Chanel. I realize this is unrealistic but if there were one
fashion designer I could meet it would be her.
Although, I cannot afford her collection myself, besides perfumes, her
designs have always been an inspiration in my life.

Chanel made her mark on the fashion
industry. She changed fashion for the better, putting women in pants, creating
a little black dress that every girl owns in her closet. She didn’t follow
trends, she followed her own taste, her own thoughts and designs and she stuck
to it. Chanel also spoke her mind and was very opinionated. Growing up in an
orphanage and every paying off some of her siblings to never speak to her
again, along with her scandal of helping the German Nazis, Chanel did as she
pleased and still came out on top. To me, that is inspiration, and that is the
woman I want to be. Meeting her would have been life changing.
