作者简介

Justine Picardie has spent the last decade puzzling over the
truth about Coco Chanel, attempting to peel away the accretions of
romance and lies. In this full-scale biography we finally discover
the history of the incredible woman who created the way we look
now. Coco Chanel was an extraordinary inventor - she conjured up
the little black dress, bobbed hair, trousers for women,
contemporary chic, best-selling perfumes, and the most successful
fashion brand of all time - but she also invented herself,
fashioning the myth of her own life with the same dexterity as her
couture. While Chanel was supreme innovator and vendor of all
things elegant and beautiful, what lies beneath her own glossy myth
is far darker. Throwing new light on her passionate and turbulent
relationships, this beautifully constructed portrait gives a fresh
and penetrating look at how Coco Chanel made herself into her own
most powerful creation. Justine Picardie brings the mysterious
Gabrielle Chanel out of hiding, to celebrate her great
achievements. She examines Chanel's enduring afterlife, as well as
her remarkable life, uncovering the consequences of what she
covered up, unpicking the seams between truth and legend, yet
keeping intact the real fabric of her past.
