A selection of women's costumes for all occasions
Little woman Coco Chanel was destined to make a big impact on the fashion world. She created a style that is still being followed. Most women’s modern costumes are the legacy of her creations.
As a fashion designer, she borrowed elements of the traditional men’s wardrobe for women, allowing a woman to dress comfortably, look elegant, refined and businesslike at the same time.
Her principle of “luxury simplicity” is still used to create costumes. Her innovation is a tight-fitting women's jacket. Before Chanel, no one wore such stylish details of clothes.

She came up with a little black dress that could be worn at any event. It has become a universal and basic thing in the wardrobe.
