Justine Picardie, author of the new book, Fashioning The Crown, reveals the role fashion has played in the British monarchy; describes spending personal time with the late Queen Elizabeth II; explores the power of women when men still ruled the world; gives her verdict on Coco Chanel; tells the story of her own relationship with fashion and style, and offers insights into life at home in rural Norfolk.
Aujourd''hui, voilà la question que nous allons nous poser : comment Coco Chanel est-elle passée de l'ombre à la légende ? Quand on pense à cette créatrice, on imagine une silhouette noire et blanche, un collier de perles, un tailleur droit, une allure libre, presque insolente. On pense aussi à un parfum mythique, le numéro 5, et à une certaine idée de l'élégance française. Mais derrière cette image lisse, derrière cette icône planétaire de la mode, qui était vraiment Gabrielle Chanel ? Comment cette orpheline née dans la misère devient-elle la couturière la plus célèbre du monde ? Pourquoi son style traverse-t-il les décennies sans jamais se démoder ? Et surtout, que reste-t-il aujourd'hui de cette femme aussi admirée que critiquée ? ______ "Briller en société" est un podcast original NRJ, à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d''écoute et sur le site et l''application NRJ.fr Texte : Daphné Breytenbach Voix et mix : Louis Daubé.

House Guest by Country & Town House | Interior Designer Interviews
Coco Chanel once said: 'Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury' – words that perfectly encompass the philosophy of this week's House Guest, Alua Kul, of Lumi Interiors. 'Practicality and functionality are the most important aspects of interior design,' she says. Tune in to hear more about how she fell in love with interior design and used her inquisitive mind and business acumen to set up a successful business practice which bridges London and Dubai.
Als Pendant zum Herrenanzug avancierte das Chanel-Kostüm für Damen zu einem Standard- Kleidungsstück. Elegant und bequem ist es bis heute ein Mode-Klassiker.
Most of us can't even hear the word “cardigan” without picturing Mr. Rogers coming home to exchange his suit jacket and dress shoes for one of his zip-up cardigans and a pair of sneakers. Most authors that write histories of this favorite casual sweater act stunned that Mr. Rogers favorite item of clothing was invented by the military. But for those of us better-versed in menswear history, it's no surprise that the cardigan was a military invention, because… well, most pieces of men's clothing wouldn't exist today if not for their military application.The far more interesting angle in the cardigan story is not that the unassuming sweater gained fame for its role in one of the most disastrous cavalry charges of all time, but its position in women's fashion. It was Coco Chanel who, was probably a Nazi collaborator, but it's pretty clear she helped bring the cardigan to the masses and it was women who made cardigans cool.Brands mentioned:Inverallan Knitters (also at Clutch Cafe)Dehen 1920Beams PlusDrakesJ.PressIf you liked what you've been hearing, please let us and other people know with a reviewOur email address is blowout@heddels.com and we also have our discord running so you can bother me directly if you like!https://discord.gg/GA978xdPToday's episode featured writing from Albert Muzquiz in “From Cavalry to Coco Chanel: The Cardigan Unbuttoned” on Heddels.com and the production talents of Sean Thornton
Esta madrugada recuperamos el programa de nuestra serie de personajes históricos dedicado a Coco Chanel, una de las mujeres más influyentes del siglo XX, cuyo mito empieza a gestarse en el orfanato de un pequeño pueblo francés donde las monjas enseñaban a las niñas sin recursos a coser, a bordar y a planchar. Su forma de entender la moda y la vida de las mujeres, y su visión sobre la elegancia, el estilo y la clase siguen marcando los cánones del diseño.
In 2018, Sy Truong began studying (and teaching himself) perfumery. Six years later, he's the recipient of an Art & Olfaction Award, the founder and perfumer behind the internationally-celebrated brand Sylhouette Parfums, the perfumer of record for TOOUCH perfumes, and is shaping the emerging landscape of Vietnamese niche perfumery.Today, we chat about the perfume book that changed his entire life, his quest to embody his art, his self-image and how it shapes his style and aesthetic, and Sy shares the driving force behind all he does (in my words, not his) that we could all do a bit more of in 2026: ~LET UR HATERS BE UR MOTIVATORS!~linktr.ee/emmavernGET SMELLS LIKE LOVE TIX!SINGLE NEW YORKERS CLICK HERE!JAN SMELL CLUB TIX: coming v soon!!FRAGS MENTIONED:Amouage Jubilation 40 (SOTD), Stora Skuggan Azalai, Sylhouette: Poème Noire, Molotov Cocktail; Mugler Alien, Coco Chanel, Toouch: Smoky Graze, Heritage Nuzzle; Serge Lutens Santal Majuscule, ONE DAY
Chanel (gest. am 10.1.1971) befreit Frauen aus Kleidungszwängen. Um ihr Unternehmen erfolgreich zu machen, umgarnt sie immer wieder Männer - auch Nazis, wenn es sein muss. Von Anja Reinhardt.
En este capítulo reflexiono sobre esa paradoja tan curiosa de la vida: lo poco que tienes te lo quitan… y cuando por fin te va mejor, te empiezan a dar de sobra. De hecho, comento un versículo de la Biblia que encaja perfectamente con lo que me está pasando:“Porque al que tiene, se le dará, y tendrá más; pero al que no tiene, aun lo que tiene le será quitado.” (Mateo 13:12).Y justo ahora, con el coche dando guerra y sin saber si lo de la caja de cambios va a terminar siendo un drama, nos ofrecen ¡regalarnos un coche! Y claro, uno piensa: cuando no tenía ni para un triste arreglo, nadie regalaba nada; ahora que puedo, aparecen oportunidades por todos lados.Recuerdo también aquello que decía Jordi Wild de que cuando estaba tieso no le daba nadie ni las gracias, y ahora que tiene dinero le regalan móviles, viajes y de todo.Además, cuento cómo estoy utilizando el iPad como diario personal, lo cómodo que me resulta para seguir mi día a día y lo bien que me está funcionando. Y dejo dos recomendaciones de cine: Coco Chanel y La magia de las mentiras, con Robert De Niro y Michelle Pfeiffer.✅ Suscríbete a mi canal de YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laopiniondemarm

This week, the girls are joined by Arabelle Sicardi, writer, image theorist, and author of The House of Beauty: Lessons from the Image Industry. Lola and Meagan confess the cosmetic procedures they've each had, and Arabelle explores how the beauty industry preys on our deepest fears, giving us a false sense of control and training us to worship ideals that are impossible to reach. They reflect on the high rates of plastic surgery in Utah and the LDS church, the gendered differences between the beauty industry and biohacking, and the relationship of beauty to power. Arabelle breaks down the cultiness of influencer brand trips, Coco Chanel's forgotten Nazi ties, and how easy it can be to isolate in luxury, detaching from the unseen global exploitation within the beauty industry. Plus: why beauty's true value lies not in perfection, but in human connection.

Interview Date: March 23rd, 2025Episode Summary:This episode spotlights Robert Garland, Artistic Director of Dance Theatre of Harlem (DTH)—former principal dancer, DTH's first resident choreographer, and a Juilliard BFA graduate. Beyond the concert stage, Garland's work spans New York City Ballet, The Royal Ballet, Oakland Ballet, and commercial projects from Sesame Street to Nike and the NAACP Image Awards.Garland traces DTH's roots to Arthur Mitchell's 1969 vision and explains how Mitchell's lecture-demonstration model built audiences and access. He folds in a vivid business/history lesson on George Balanchine—from the Ballets Russes and Coco Chanel's short ballet skirt to the Harlem Renaissance's jazz influence that helped shape neoclassicism and, crucially, how smart repertoire and audience-building choices drove growth. On the business side, Garland stresses that relationships power opportunities and fundraising—“contacts become contracts”—and lifts the curtain on the theater's “cottage industry” (development, marketing, production, stage management). For dancers, he offers pragmatic guidance: cultivate musicianship and form, be multifaceted (social, lighting, admin), and understand cycles of work—pace your week so you peak for shows. He unpacks today's video-first auditions, urging care with presentation, while affirming many legitimate pathways (college, company route, or self-directed study).Show notes:(0:00) – Robert Garland introduction & career highlights(09:41) – Dance Theatre of Harlem origin & mission(14:55) – Juilliard audition story and scholarship journey(16:56) – Balanchine, Coco Chanel, and neoclassicism explained(25:51) – “Contacts = Contracts”: relationships fuel opportunities(33:16) – Careers beyond stage: marketing, production, education(38:27) – Arts education builds empathy and compassion(42:34) – Audition process and rise of video submissions(51:41) – Transition into commercial/TV work with hip-hop artists(1:12:11) – From dancer to choreographer to creative leadershipBiography:Artistic Director Robert Garland was a member of the Dance Theatre of Harlem Company from 1985-1998, achieving the rank of principal dancer. After creating a work for the DTH School Ensemble, Arthur Mitchell invited Mr. Garland to create a work for The Dance Theatre of Harlem Company and appointed him the organization's first Resident Choreographer. Before becoming DTH Artistic Director, he was Director of the Dance Theatre of Harlem school. In 2023, Mr. Garland was appointed the Artistic Director of Dance Theatre of Harlem. His works for the company include Higher Ground, New Bach, Return, Nyman String Quartet No. 2, and The Cookout among others, many are in his signature postmodern-urban-neo-classical style. In addition to choreographing several ballets for DTH, Mr. Garland has also created works for New York City Ballet, Britain's Royal Ballet, Oakland Ballet and many others. His commercial work has included music videos, commercials and short films, including the children's television show “Sesame Street”, a Nike commercial featuring New York Yankee Derek Jeter, the NAACP Image Awards, a short film for designer Donna Karan, and the “Charmin Cha-Cha” for Proctor and Gamble.

Les Fashion Weeks commencent un peu partout dans le monde et avec elles cette question : où sont les femmes ? Sur les podiums, elles sont omniprésentes, mais en coulisses, les hommes qui dirigent les grandes maisons de couture sont beaucoup plus nombreux. Dans les dernières sélections de directeurs artistiques, seuls deux noms de femmes émergent contre une dizaine d'hommes – et bien peu de diversité. Laure Manent s'entretient avec la journaliste mode Saveria Mendella, créatrice du podcast "Les gens de la mode" pour comprendre si l'époque des créatrices illustres comme Coco Chanel, Elsa Schiaparelli ou Vivienne Westwood est révolu et ce qui fait la différence entre la mode créée par un homme et celle imaginée par une femme.
In this episode, Pauline sits down with her longtime friend Sasha Grutman — a seasoned finance professional and cultivated aesthete — for a conversation on the power of curation, or what Pauline calls “the art of intelligence.” Drawing from Coco Chanel's maxim that “elegance is refusal” to the Latin roots of curare (“to take care of”), Pauline and Sasha explore how thoughtful curation brings clarity, coherence, and meaning to our lives.At once practical and philosophical, this show reveals that curation is not simply an elitist pastime, but an essential life skill — a way for us all to focus our attention, express our identity, and enhance the quality, beauty, and joy in our lives.
Armani era considerado como sinónimo de estilo y elegancia, y se le considera el primer diseñador desde Coco Chanel que provocó un cambio duradero en la forma de vestir

As the new feature film Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale opens worldwide, we see for the final time the elegant, glamorous and always dramatic world of Lord and Lady Grantham and their family. We also have a chance to look back at the evolving fashion and hairstyles of Downton's characters as they have evolved from the series debut set in 1912 up to this final film set in 1930. Joining The Gilded Gentleman table to trace this fashion history is listener favorite Dr. Elizabeth L. Block, who takes us from the high Edwardian style we saw with Violet, the Dowager Countess, to the body hugging slinky styles of Coco Chanel we see on Lady Mary in this latest film. We also explore the flapper look, the influence of war years on fashion and how the great cultural forces such as the Ballets Russes all influence the styles of the Crawley sisters. And we even take a look downstairs and talk about how styles for domestic staff were shifting as well. This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.
Leticia Vaquero y Sergio Crespo recuerdan la trayectoria de la diseñadora de alta costura francesa.
La Suisse n'est pas qu'un repère de célébrités en retraite et de gauchistes en quête de tranquillité dans une Europe où ils sont pourchassés. Le 25 août 1944, Paris est libéré. Quatre jours plus tard, Gabrielle Chanel, très célèbre créatrice de mode, est arrêtée, interrogée et très rapidement relâchée grâce à l'appui d'un certain… Winston Churchill. En septembre de la même année, elle décide de quitter la France et se réfugie à Lausanne. Elle y retrouve son amant, un espion allemand, pour poursuivre quelques années encore une relation amoureuse qui lui a déjà valu des soupçons de collaboration avec le nazisme. Célèbre et riche, Coco Chanel passe huit ans en exil volontaire dans la capitale vaudoise. Entre les suites des palaces de la Riviera et une maison qu'elle loue à Lausanne, elle fréquente le petit cercle des collaborateurs en fuite. Un parcours que la journaliste Marie Fert a retracé dans son livre, Gabrielle Chanel, les années d'exil, paru aux Editions Slatkine en 2021. https://www.slatkine.com/fr/editions-slatkine/74905-book-07211030-9782832110300.html

¡Vámonos de vacaciones! ¿Cuándo empezamos a salir de veraneo? ¿Qué tienen en común Cleopatra, Frankenstein y Coco Chanel? ¿Y por qué los turistas romanos ya se quejaban de los atascos? David Botello (@DavidBotello4) y Esther Sánchez (@estesan1969), acompañados por Ainara Ariztoy y Fran Nortes, viajan por la historia de las vacaciones y el turismo con humor, rigor y un poquito de arena entre los dedos. Saca tu billete en esta máquina del tiempo, porque cada parada es una excusa para hablar de las locuras, las contradicciones y las maravillas de salir de casa para encontrarse con el mundo. Y porque no hay mejor souvenir que una buena historia. Si quieres acompañarlos, ¡súbete a la Historia!

In our conclusion of the life and times of Coco Chanel, we travel through the years 1936 to the end of her life in 1971, and a little beyond too. With the passing of time, more has come to light about Coco's affair with a German spy, and her associated work with the Nazis through WW2. Surprisingly, there are no real consequences ultimately from this time, and after laying low for a while, Coco has a whole second act and comeback in the United States. She is a lady with a complicated life and a complicated legacy. Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on Patreon!

In this continuation of the life and times of Coco Chanel, we take the legendary designer through the Roaring 20s to the mid-1930s. This was an action packed time in her life, including even more expansion into a fragrance line, an entrée into London high society, a few high profile love affairs, two bad business deals, and a love nest in Scotland as well. Ride along for this decade plus in her life, possibly the best one as the shadows of war are creeping in for our finale, in which Coco will do a little bit more than dabble into Fascism.

Ever feel like you're doing all the right marketing things but still hitting a ceiling in your home inspection business? You're not alone. In this exploration of innovative marketing strategies, we dive deep into how Coco Chanel's revolutionary approach to fashion provides a perfect blueprint for home inspectors looking to stand out. What made Chanel remarkable wasn't that she completely shattered conventions—she simply bent them in ways that felt both novel and familiar. She designed pants for women when they only wore dresses, but maintained femininity in the design, creating something revolutionary that still felt accessible.This same principle applies perfectly to our inspection businesses. When we follow standard marketing playbooks—regular social media content, professional websites, office presentations—we can build successful companies up to a point. But breaking through plateaus requires thoughtful innovation. The most successful inspectors I've encountered find that sweet spot between the familiar and the novel, like the southern inspector who became his market's go-to professional by offering radon testing when no competitors did.The conversation explores practical ways to implement this "Chanel approach" in your business through both service offerings and marketing presentation. We examine when to innovate (start with just 10% of your marketing), how to identify opportunities others miss, and—crucially—how to avoid innovations that seem exciting but lack market demand. For every successful Coco Chanel, countless others failed by introducing concepts people weren't ready for.Ready to break through your business plateau?

Does the life of famed fashion designer Coco Chanel really qualify as a true crime story, or is it more a narrative of survival and resistance? Some think she's a feminist icon, some consider her a Nazi spy. Whatever the case, her cultural influence is impossible to deny, and her life story couldn't be a better fit for Tres Paris Month. Christopher and Eric serve up the riveting documentary film COCO CHANEL: UNBUTTONED, which has the special distinction of including scores of glamorous, fabulous interview subjects with whom they'd kill to have lunch.
Despite an incredibly challenging childhood, Coco Chanel revolutionized women's fashion.
