1
Welcome, my friends.
2
Pull up a chair.
3
Let's take a moment together.
4
Tonight I want to tell you a story.
5
It is a story about a woman who changed the world with a pair of scissors and a very strong will.
6
You probably know her name.
7
You see it on expensive bags,
8
on bottles of perfume, and in the windows of the most beautiful shops in Paris.
9
Her name was Gabrielle.
10
But the world?
11
The world remembers her as Coco Chanel.
12
But before the fame, before the diamonds,
13
and before the cameras, there was just a little girl with nothing but her dreams.
14
So, let's go back.
15
Let's go back to a time of heavy dresses,
16
cold winters, and a young girl who refused to be ordinary.
17
Imagine a cold, grey building in the French countryside.
18
This was an orphanage, a place for children who have no parents.
19
This is where our story begins,
20
in a place called Obazine.
21
Gabrielle was born in 1883 in a small town called Sommur.
22
Her family was very poor.
23
Her mother died when Gabrielle was only 12 years old.
24
Her father, a man who traveled to sell things,
25
could not take care of her.
26
He took Gabrielle and her sisters to the orphanage,
27
and he never came back.
28
Can you imagine that?
29
12 years old, alone, and left behind by the person you love most?
30
But my friends, it was inside those cold stone walls that Gabrielle learned the skill that would change her life.
31
The nuns, the religious women who ran the orphanage,
32
taught her how to sew.
33
They taught her how to use a needle and thread.
34
Everything in the orphanage was simple.
35
The colors were mostly black and white.
36
The floors were hard.
37
air was quiet many people think gabrielle hated this time
38
and perhaps she did but look closely at her later work the black
39
and white colors the simple lines the sense of order it
40
all started there gabrielle was not like the other girls she was quiet
41
but she was watching she was learning that if you want to survive,
42
you have to be strong.
43
She didn't want a life of pity.
44
She wanted a life of power.
45
She realized early on that her hands,
46
and her ability to sew,
47
were her ticket out of that gray world.
48
Have you ever had a difficult start?
49
Sometimes the hardest parts of our lives are actually the seeds of our greatest success.
50
For Gabrielle, the silence of the orphanage was the beginning of her loud voice in the world of fashion
51
when gabrielle left the orphanage she was a young woman with a sharp mind
52
and a slim figure she didn't have money
53
but she had a dream to be a performer she began to sing in cabarets small theaters where people drink
54
and listen to music
55
she wasn't the best singer in france my friends but she had spark she had a special energy
56
She often sang two popular songs.
57
One was about a girl who lost her dog,
58
and the dog's name was Coco.
59
The soldiers and the crowds loved it.
60
They would shout, Coco!
61
Coco!
62
And the name stuck.
63
From that moment on, Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel became Coco Chanel.
64
But Coco knew she wouldn't be a singer forever.
65
She met a wealthy man named Etienne Balsan.
66
He was rich, he loved horses,
67
and he invited her to live at his large estate.
68
This was a new world for Coco.
69
She saw how the rich lived.
70
But she also saw how uncomfortable the women looked.
71
They wore giant hats with too many feathers and dresses that were so tight they could barely breathe.
72
Coco began to make her own hats.
73
They were different.
74
They were small, simple, and elegant.
75
When the other women saw them, they laughed at first.
76
Where are the feathers? they asked.
77
Where is the lace?
78
But soon they stopped laughing.
79
They realized that Coco looked modern.
80
She looked cool.
81
She looked free.
82
Coco realized that she didn't want to be just a guest in a rich man's house.
83
She wanted her own business.
84
She wanted her own money.
85
She started to realize that her hobby of making hats could be something much bigger.
86
She was ready to move from the countryside to the heart of the world, Paris.
87
In 1910, with the help of a man named Boy Capel,
88
who was perhaps the true love of her life,
89
Coco opened her first shop.
90
It was a small hat shop at 21 Rue Cambon in Paris.
91
She called it Chanel Modes.
92
Imagine the street, horses walking on the stones,
93
the smell of fresh bread,
94
and women in long, heavy skirts.
95
Then, there was Coco's shop.
96
It was different.
97
Her hats were like a breath of fresh air.
98
But Coco was hungry for more.
99
She didn't just want to change what was on a woman's head.
100
She wanted to change how a woman felt.
101
She opened another shop in Deauville,
102
a beautiful town by the sea.
103
In Deauville, she saw women struggling to walk on the sand in their heavy, fancy clothes.
104
It looked so difficult.
105
So, Coco did something shocking.
106
She took jersey fabric.
107
Now, back then, jersey was only used to make men's underwear.
108
It was cheap and soft.
109
Coco used it to make dresses.
110
People were surprised.
111
Underwear fabric for a lady's dress?
112
They cried.
113
but when the women put them on they felt something they had never felt before comfort
114
they could move they could walk they could breathe coco's business
115
grew very fast she was no longer the poor girl from the orphanage she was a businesswoman a word
116
that was not used for women very often in those days.
117
She was building an empire,
118
one stitch at a time.
119
She was showing the world that simplicity was not boring.
120
Simplicity was the highest form of style.
121
My friends, let's talk about the corset.
122
Have you seen one in a museum or a movie?
123
It is a piece of clothing made of stiff material and metal.
124
Women wore them under their dresses to make their waists look tiny.
125
It was very painful.
126
It was hard to eat,
127
hard to sit, and almost impossible to run.
128
Coco Chanel hated the corset.
129
She thought it was like a cage for women.
130
She said, nothing is beautiful if it is not comfortable.
131
She began to design clothes that followed the natural shape of the human body.
132
She got rid of the tight waists.
133
She shortened the skirts so women could actually walk.
134
She even took inspiration from men's clothing, using jackets and trousers.
135
This was a revolution.
136
Before Coco, fashion was about showing how much money you had by wearing expensive, heavy things.
137
Coco changed the rules.
138
She made it about freedom.
139
She also introduced the color beige.
140
Before her, beige was considered dirty or plain,
141
but Coco saw it as elegant.
142
She loved colors that were found in nature.
143
The color of sand, the color of stones.
144
Think about it, my friends.
145
Imagine being a woman in 1915.
146
For your whole life, you have been told to sit still and look like a doll.
147
Then, this woman, Chanel, gives you a soft jersey dress and tells you to go for a walk.
148
How would you feel?
149
You would feel like you finally had a voice.
150
Coco wasn't just selling clothes.
151
She was selling a new way of living.
152
She was telling women, you are active,
153
you are independent, you are free.
154
By the 1920s, Coco Chanel was a star.
155
But she was about to create two things that would make her name live forever.
156
The first was a smell.
157
In 1921, she worked with a famous perfume maker named Ernest Beau.
158
She told him, I want a perfume that smells like a woman,
159
not like a flower.
160
At that time, perfumes usually smelled like one flower, roses, or jasmine.
161
Beau gave her several samples to try.
162
They were numbered 1 through 5 and 20 through 24.
163
Coco chose number 5.
164
Chanel No. 5 was born.
165
It was a total change.
166
The bottle was simple and square, like a laboratory bottle.
167
It was clean and modern.
168
To this day, it is the most famous perfume in the history of the world.
169
It is said that a bottle is sold every few seconds somewhere on earth.
170
Then came 1926.
171
Coco designed a simple, short, black dress.
172
Now listen to this.
173
Before 1926, women only wore black for funerals.
174
If you wore black, it meant someone you loved had died.
175
It was the color of sadness.
176
But Coco changed that.
177
She published a picture of a simple black dress in Vogue magazine.
178
They called it the Ford of fashion,
179
because like the Ford car,
180
it was something everyone could have,
181
and it was always in style.
182
She called it the little black dress, the LBD.
183
She showed the world that black was not just for mourning.
184
Black was chic.
185
Black was powerful.
186
Black was perfect for every occasion.
187
Every woman could look like a princess in a simple black dress.
188
With the perfume and the dress,
189
Coco Chanel didn't just follow the trends.
190
She made the trends.
191
She was the Queen of Paris.
192
The 1920s were a wild time.
193
They were called the Roaring Twenties.
194
People were dancing the Charleston,
195
listening to jazz, and drinking champagne.
196
And in the middle of it all was Coco.
197
She was friends with the greatest artists of the time.
198
She knew Pablo Picasso, the famous painter.
199
She knew Salvador Dali.
200
She was part of the high society.
201
She traveled on huge yachts and stayed in beautiful palaces.
202
She even had a famous relationship with the Duke of Westminster,
203
one of the richest men in England.
204
People asked her, why don't you marry the Duke?
205
She famously answered, there have been several Duchesses of Westminster,
206
but there is only one Chanel.
207
She was proud.
208
She was independent.
209
She didn't need a man's name to be important.
210
But it wasn't all parties and sunshine.
211
Coco suffered a great deal of pain.
212
Her great love, boy Capel,
213
died in a car accident.
214
She was heartbroken.
215
She said, in losing Capel, I lost everything.
216
Some people say she started wearing black because she was mourning for him,
217
and that is why she made black so popular.
218
She was a woman of many secrets.
219
She was successful, but she was often lonely.
220
She worked very, very hard.
221
She would stay up late,
222
pinning fabric to models, searching for the perfect line.
223
She was a perfectionist.
224
She was also a woman of many faces.
225
She could be kind, but she could also be very sharp and mean.
226
She was a complicated person,
227
just like the times she lived in.
228
In 1939, the world changed.
229
World War II began.
230
When the war started, Coco Chanel did something that surprised everyone.
231
She closed her fashion house.
232
She said, This is not a time for fashion.
233
Thousands of people lost their jobs.
234
During the war, Paris was occupied by the German army.
235
This is a very difficult and controversial part of Coco's story, my friends.
236
While many people in France were suffering,
237
Coco stayed in the famous Ritz Hotel in Paris.
238
She had a relationship with a German officer.
239
Because of this, many people after the war called her a collaborator,
240
someone who helped the enemy.
241
There are many books and stories about her actions during this time.
242
Some people say she was just trying to survive.
243
Others say she was a spy.
244
It is a dark cloud over her history.
245
When the war ended in 1945,
246
the people of France were angry with her.
247
She was not the hero she used to be.
248
She left Paris and went to live in Switzerland in a kind of exile.
249
For almost 10 years, Coco Chanel was silent.
250
The world of fashion moved on without her.
251
A new designer named Christian Dior became famous with his new look,
252
which used lots of fabric and tight waists, everything Coco hated.
253
People thought Coco Chanel was finished.
254
They thought she was a woman of the past,
255
but they didn't know Gabrielle.
256
They forgot about the girl from the orphanage who never gave up.
257
In 1954, Coco Chanel was 71 years old.
258
Most people at that age are sitting in a garden, resting.
259
But Coco?
260
She was ready for a fight.
261
She decided to return to Paris.
262
She wanted to open her fashion house again.
263
On the day of her first show,
264
the French newspapers were not kind.
265
They said her clothes were old-fashioned.
266
They said she was too old.
267
They said she had nothing new to say.
268
But then, something interesting happened.
269
The Americans loved it.
270
The American magazines, like Life and Vogue,
271
saw her new designs, and they thought they were perfect.
272
They loved the Chanel suit,
273
a simple jacket and a skirt that was perfect for the modern working woman.
274
Famous women like Jackie Kennedy and Elizabeth Taylor were wearing Chanel.
275
Coco introduced the 2.55 handbag,
276
named after the date she created it, February 1955.
277
It was the first handbag for women that had a shoulder strap.
278
Before this, women had to carry bags in their hands.
279
Coco said, I got tired of holding my purse in my hands and losing it,
280
so I added a strap.
281
Again, she was thinking about what women needed.
282
She also made costume jewelry popular.
283
She wore big, fake pearls with real diamonds.
284
She showed the world that style was not about how much the jewelry cost,
285
it was about how you wore it.
286
She was back on top.
287
She proved that you are never too old to have a second act.
288
She proved that her vision of comfort and elegance was timeless.
289
Coco Chanel worked until the very last day of her life.
290
She died on a Sunday in 1971 at the Ritz hotel.
291
She was 87 years old.
292
Think about her life for a second.
293
She started with nothing in a gray orphanage and ended as the most powerful woman in fashion history.
294
She once said, fashion fades,
295
only style remains the same.
296
And she was right.
297
Today, more than 50 years after her death, her influence is everywhere.
298
Every time you see a woman in a simple black dress or wearing a jacket with gold buttons,
299
or putting on a little perfume before she leaves the house.
300
That is the legacy of Coco Chanel.
301
She changed the way women see themselves.
302
She told them they didn't have to be decorations for men.
303
They could be comfortable.
304
They could be fast.
305
They could be bosses.
306
Her life wasn't perfect.
307
She made mistakes.
308
She had secrets.
309
But she was a pioneer.
310
She was a woman who designed her own life as much as she designed her clothes.
311
So, next time you see that famous double C logo,
312
remember the little girl from Obazine.
313
Remember her needle and thread.
314
Remember her courage to be simple in a world that wanted her to be complicated.
315
Gabrielle Coco Chanel A woman who lived by her own rules.
316
