Many years ago I read the biography of Coco Chanel. I liked that she wanted to wear clothes that were comfortable. Her fashion style had a simple elegance.
I found photos of Coco Chanel on the internet. I am posting photos of Coco Chanel to show her personality as seen through her poses in the photos. Gabrielle (Coco) Chanel lived from 1883 - 1971.
Coco Chanel had a German officer boyfriend during the German occupation of France. After WWII, Coco Chanel moved to Switzerland to avoid questioning about her actions during the war.
Here is an article to read with details about her life:

Coco Chanel designed clothes that allowed women to break away from the corset and created a new fashion style. Coco Chanel invented comfortable and attractive sportswear. That is a good accomplishment. Her character and actions are her own responsibility however.
