More quotes by Coco Chanel

Coco Chanel

Coco Chanel

Coco Chanel
You cannot keep up a nightlife and amount to anything in the day. You cannot indulge in those foods and liquors that destroy the physique and still hope to have a physique that functions with the minimum of destruction to itself.

Coco Chanel
I don't do fashion, I'm fashion
Coco Chanel
Passion always goes, and boredom stays.
Coco Chanel

Coco Chanel
Fashion fades, only style remains the same.
Coco Chanel
A young lady ought to be two things: tasteful and breathtaking.
Coco Chanel
It's not houses I love, it's the life I live in them.
Coco Chanel
True generosity means accepting ingratitude.
Coco Chanel
I love luxury. And luxury lies not in richness and ornateness but in the absence of vulgarity. Vulgarity is the ugliest word in our language. I stay in the game to fight it.
Coco Chanel
