Gabrielle Chanel. Fashion Manifesto
The Palais Galliera presents a major exhibition dedicated to the work of Gabrielle Chanel. This retrospective pays tribute to the great couturière, whose creations are still synonymous with modernity and elegance, while also illustrating the essential role of her image in the promotion and success of her creations. From the models in jersey of her early days, which were a complete break with the fashion of her time, to the sophisticated dresses of the 1930s, and the iconic tailleur of the 1950s and 1960s, the selection reflects the birth and evolution of a style based on intangible values interpreted and brought into existence with great subtlety by Mademoiselle Chanel. This retrospective follows the development of Gabrielle Chanel’s work and shows how her creations – clothes, accessories, jewellery, and perfumes – were designed as an integral part of a unified vision and constitute a manifesto that is far more than a mere fashion statement.
An adaptation of the exhibition Gabrielle Chanel. Fashion Manifesto from Palais Galliera, presented in Paris from 1 October 2020 to 18 July 2021.
