A candle burnt at both ends may shed a brighter light, but the darkness that follows is for a longer time.

Coco Chanel
Image
Fashion is not simply a matter of clothes. Fashion is in the air, born upon the wind. One intuits it. It is in the sky and on the road.
Coco Chanel
Image
Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only.
Coco Chanel
Image
A dress made right should allow one to walk, to dance, even to ride horseback.
Coco Chanel
Image
A beautiful dress may look beautiful on a hanger, but that means nothing. It must be seen on the shoulders, with the movement of the arms, the legs, and the waist.
