ReplyDeletethe evolution of fashion has changed over history. now the fashion is really into nude which is "flesh" (skin) colored fashion , but it has become a bit of a problem in the fashion world, because it brings out the attention from the model. coco chanel has once said "Look for the woman in the dress" which means that her customer should draw the eye first , not her clothes. coco chanel thinks about what her customer wants and what style will fit the customer best.
ReplyDeleteCoco Chanel was very relaxed and elegant so her clothing mainly spoke to me because i love her "coco jacket"..... and she always looked past the clothes and focused on the person who wears it.
ReplyDeleteThe fashion designer Coco Chanel inspired fashion trends because first of all she began the revolution that was high-class women wearing trousers. She also began the sailor tops. She was inpired by the uniform of French fishermen.

ReplyDeletewhat i learn about coco chanel from the artical "naked ambition" i lern that she dosint look at her costermer to make a dress design she look at what her costermer wears. that why she my favorite fashion disner
ReplyDeletewhat I learned about Coco Chanel is she has a unique sense of style and creates things in unique ways especially because she introduced the style of simple, elegant, relaxed look also the way she transformed normal woman clothes to something more glam "
ReplyDelete"Look for the woman in the dress,” Coco Chanel once decreed, meaning that her customer, not her clothes, should draw the eye first" -Mercy perez
Coco Chanel is a fashion designer, that she saw fashion in a different way. She thought clothing was nothing but a second skin. Coco also inspired fashion with her great trend starting. Coco Chamel symbolised 20thcentury ambition and determination.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading "Naked Amibition" I learned that the evolution of fashion changed very much, but the trends became reycled and began to be popular again."'Look for the woman in the dress,' Coco Chanel once decreed, meaning that her customer, not her clothes, should draw the eye first". Coco inspire fashion trends because she made a more loose fashion for women. It was more simple and elegant fashion.
ReplyDelete@layla i agree , she did she fashion in a different way !!
ReplyDeleteTo me the evolution of fashion throughout history as became a big problem i believe this because around the 1920s fashion was more of a old school look until designers like coco chanel started to make outgoing classy looks such as her cilla dress. Look for the woman in the dress,” Coco Chanel once decreed, meaning that her customer, not her clothes, should draw the eye first. With the current vogue for blush- and “flesh”-colored fashion. well this quote from Naked Ambition means that instead of looking at the dress or clothing that the customer or model as on look at them instead because these are your buyers that help make an profit.
ReplyDeletethis is from guillermo marrero
@layla cuilan, i believe in what you said about coco chanel creating cloths that will make the women feel good about themselves, she has inspired many people and i think the aspect in that is to make them feel good about themselves to feel beautiful, as you had said.
ReplyDeleteCoco Chanel inspired may woman over time. People know her unique clothing line to be "Elegant and simple." Meaning nothing she desinged was too over welming.
ReplyDeleteWhat I learned about fashion history is that is changed a lot as the years went on. As time went by fashion became a lot more revealing. Coco Chanel changed and inspired fashion by having her own style and making that style look

ReplyDeleteits really meanful what you said about coco chanel and how she impacted the fashion industry and changed styles
What I learned for sure is that coco Chanel design may be simple but it classy and a good look for people to wear. Also women’s should not buy or wear a garment the same skin color as yours because they want to see the person wearing it.
ReplyDelete@Evan Brown I think that your statement is very true because, Coco Chanel had a very signature look, she made a usual boring and simple look, to a classy professional style.

ReplyDeleteCoco Chanel was an inspiration because her works was a combination of two simple ideas and use them in an effective way to draw in feminism and elegance with using the color black as a base and then complementing it with the color white, especially express in pearls, just like in Sandro Botticelli’s “Venus and Mars” where Venus’s gown simple with white and yellow, but yet also effective to eye and draws in different ideas.
ReplyDelete@simoiiDalgetty I agree with you because Coco Chanel's pieces were very classy and elegant. She was also inspired by a women’s femininity
ReplyDeleteAt Dominique Pridgen: I agree with you because Coco Chanel’s clothes are seen today and will always be in style.
ReplyDeletecomment at Justin Perez
ReplyDeleteI also agree that Coco Chanel knew how to design a dress and other outfits, because this is what got her to be such a well known fashion designer.
@Alexis Diaz, I agree with your statement because I also do think Coco Chanel changed fasion by taking it to the next level.
ReplyDelete@Alexis Diaz I agree with your comment because her clothing was eye catching. For example Chanel made clothing that gave a vision of nudity. A lot of people were surprised to see that it was actually clothes. Her ideas and trends of keeping clothes simple and elegant have been passed on and changed around. Her invisible clothing inspired the invention of stockings.
ReplyDeleteFrom the article Naked Ambition by, Caroline Weber I learned that Coco Chanel is a designer not only for the business women but for the women who like wearing appropriate and comfortable clothing. She designs appropriate and simple (yet stylish) clothing. Her perception of clothing is just a second skin to the beauty inside of it, just like she said, "look for the woman in the dress".
ReplyDelete@JUSTICE I aGREED WITH WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT cOCO CHANEL.... It's totally true.
ReplyDelete@danielle sanchez there gatta be something more than that like why is she a big time fashion designer and what you really learn about her
ReplyDeleteThe evolution of fashion changed over time. Coco Chanel was a high end fashion designer who designed simple and elegant clothing which symbolized the 20th century which inspired the woman of that time to wear stocking and short skirts. I personally like the “Coco Jacket” because I like the simple black and white look which brings elegance to the clothing and who wears it.
ReplyDeleteWhat I know for sure is fashion has developed over time but the past fashion trends haven’t been lost or forgotten. They are coming back. Coco Chanel inspired fashion trends by using old trends and making them into a style that can be used now. Coco Chanel makes clothing that will make the person wearing it stand out. “Look for the woman in the dress” she is saying you should be the thing that stands out. She wants the person to have the attention just as well as the clothing does.
ReplyDelete@Simoii Dalgetty - i agree, her signature is pearls !! :)))
ReplyDelete@SANTIMARTOS i do agree with your thoughts, i do think she thought that clothing should act as a second skin. thats what made it more elegant and comfortable. and by the way you spelled chanel wrong.
ReplyDelete@kaylabobyn i agree with your statement because we make the outfit because we are wearing it
ReplyDelete@leesliebeth I agree with you because she did see things in a different way, see saw things other people didnt
ReplyDelete@Guillermo Marrero- I disagree with you that fashion has become a big problem because people should be able to show their personality in the way they dress even if that means dressing a little revealing. Also, if people didn’t express their thoughts and feelings into their outfits then we would all look pretty dull.
ReplyDelete-Karina Pichardo
Every trend has passed through time periods basically saying that fashion trend repeat themselves. “Between pyramids and pop princesses, nude fashion has had a long if not technically colorful, history” what this means is that fashion will always repeat the same trends and always be controversial

Coco Chanel stated that fashion was "a little black dress".She began to make dresses out of jersey fabric, which until then had been only used for men’s underwear. The secret of success of the incredible brand was due to the fact that from the very beginning the “Chanel” fashion house sold not only clothing to the ladies, but also the “art of living.”
