Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel's design philosophy in her own words: "Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury." No quote could be more appropriate from the woman who gave us the little black dress. Simply put, Coco's no-nonsense approach to dress reform — freeing women from the physical constraints of traditional clothing by putting them in free-flowing dresses and fluid jersey suits — revolutionized the fashion industry.
"Nothing is more beautiful than freedom of the body."
