In the latest episode of voguemagazine's 'GoodMorningVogue” series, Anna Wintour discusses the magic behind one of fashion's biggest houses, CHANEL, and the work of the current creative director, Virginie Viard.
Chanel is a magic name in fashion. Its double-C logo, known all around the globe, needs no translation, nor do Chanelisms like the quilted bag, camellias, or the number five.
“Chanel is its own world,” notes Van Lamsweerde, and it was one that reflected the exquisite taste of the founder, who, as her own best model, was the face of the brand. Having started as a milliner, Chanel transformed fashion in the 1920s by introducing simple dresses and jackets in jersey that a woman could live, love, dine, and dance in.
Lagerfeld, who took charge of the brand in 1983, proved that the house could stand, and flourish, in the absence of its founder. “Karl,” says his close friend and’s global editorial director Anna Wintour, “was superman.” Having absorbed the house codes, Lagerfeld gave them a postmodern makeover, adding elements from the street as well as his captivating sense of humor. It was such an exciting and powerful mix that Lagerfeld’s legacy equals that of Coco’s.
Chanel is now in the capable hands of Viard, who worked side by side with Lagerfeld for years. Without discarding all that came before, she is quietly asserting her own signature, a combination of soft femininity and rock-and-roll edge. And as Bowles notes, with Viard at the helm, the house is once again led by a woman designing for other women.
