Louis Vuitton: The Illustrated World of a Fashion Icon is an extraordinary illustrated biography of Louis Vuitton’s life, recounting his life and career and the birth of the Louis Vuitton brand, from the internationally renowned illustrator and author, Megan Hess. Louis Vuitton’s name is now synonymous with luxury, but the man behind the brand came from very humble beginnings, and his story is one of perseverance and vision: - Louis left his rural village at just 13 years old and took two years to walk to Paris, where he began learning the traditional craft of trunkmaking and packing. - His particular skills in packing fashion eventually led to him becoming the personal trunkmaker for the stylish French empress. - He started his eponymous house in 1854 and quickly brought in the first of many innovations – the flat-top trunk, which became the must-have accessory in the golden age of travel. - While overcoming obstacles and achieving recognition in his lifetime, Louis also set up his son and grandson to take on the business with incredible success, bringing Louis Vuitton luggage to the world and developing further innovations, such as the unpickable lock and the iconic LV Monogram pattern. - The brand’s expansion into bags was sparked by Coco Chanel ordering a custom handbag, and soon they were not just making innovative trunks for royalty and explorers but also handbags, loved by stars of stage and screen. - When the maison expanded into ready-to-wear under Marc Jacobs in the 2000s, the legacy of fashion and adventure was complete.

Coco Chanel dokázala být provokativní, veselá, lehkomyslná a velkorysá; uměla ale být také bezohledná, někdy dokonce krutá, schopná manipulovat s lidmi. V době, kdy vanou vichry války a Wehrmacht pochoduje po Champs-Élysées, se Chanel ocitá v hotelu Ritz, v místě, kde přebývá nejvyšší říšské velení. Obklopená nepřítelem vede soukromou válku, aby vyrvala moc nad svou voňavkářskou společností z rukou svého židovského partnera v podnikání, Pierra Wertheimera. Zatímco se Coco Chanel ze všech sil snaží, aby zdroje jejích příjmů i její nový život v luxusu zůstaly nedotčené, Paříž klesá k zemi pod...

Audiokniha: Co se skrývá pod slupkou módní ikony. Zevrubný životopis talentované, komplikované a mimořádně ctižádostivé ženy, která dobyla odvětví, jemuž do té doby dominovali muži. Není člověka, který by neznal módní značku Chanel, ale co bližšího víme o její zakladatelce? Osvobodila ženy od korzetů a vyměnila sešněrovanost a okázalost za oblečení, v němž mohly žít, dýchat a cítit se svobodně a pohodlně. Prožila těžké dětství v klášterním sirotčinci, kde ji místo vlastních rodičů vychovávaly jeptišky, byla obviňována z kolaborace s nacisty a jejím největším uměleckým dílem se stal, kromě malých černých a Chanelu N. 5, její vlastní život. Justine Picardie strávila studiem života a díla Coco Chanel deset let. Neváhala navštěvovat archivy, objet místa, kde Chanel žila a tvořila, a mluvit s pamětníky z řad rodiny, přátel i kolegů. Velmi působivý je barvitý popis sirotčince, kde sestry chodily po chodbách v černých hábitech s růženci, a následné srovnání s ikonickými malými černými a perlovými náhrdelníky, které Chanel prodávala svým zákaznicím.

Kniha - autor Lisa Chaneyová, 464 stran, česky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Gabrielle Chanelová (1883–1971) alias Coco Chanel se vyšvihla z chudých poměrů, dosáhla jedinečného společenského úspěchu, způsobila revoluci v dámském odívání a stala se nejvlivnější módní návrhářkou 20. století. Nový životopis této moderní ženy par excellence poukazuje na zásadní novátorství jejího návrhářského stylu. Tématem legend se staly její četné milostné vztahy, jejichž dramatické a tragické podrobnosti často dřívějším životopiscům unikaly: vtipná a uhrančivá Coco byla múzou, patronkou či milenkou Picassa, Dalího, Stravinského a dalších pozoruhodných osobností. Lisa Chaneyová ve své biografii čerpá z nově objevené milostné korespondence. Poprvé rovněž odkrývá zasutá témata jako Coco a drogová závislost, její lesbické vztahy i poměr s německým důstojníkem za druhé světové války. Coco Chanel však též pronikavě zasáhla do vývoje moderního umění a předkládaný životopis líčí její...

Coco Chanel - Justine Picardie
Revoluční módní návrhářka nahradila korzety z velrybích kostí námořnickými halenkami a volnými kalhotami a okázalé večerní róby vyměnila za malé černé šaty s jedinou šňůrkou perel. Zkrátka oblečením, v němž ženy mohly žít, dýchat a cítit se pohodlně. Obávaná i uctívaná svými současníky zemřela v roce 1971, ale její odkaz žije dál jako trvalá globální značka. Britská spisovatelka Justine Picardie strávila deset let pátráním po skutečné Coco Chanel, skryté pod slupkou legendární módní ikony. Ve své knize odhaluje skutečnost zbavenou nánosů romantiky a mýtů. Seznamuje nás s detaily traumatického dětství, útěku do nekonvenční dospělosti, odhaluje bolestnou minulost, lásky a ztráty, honbu za slávou a bohatstvím a to, jak se Chanel proměnila ve svůj největší výtvor. Biografie doprovázená více než šedesáti dobovými fotografiemi se umístila mezi finalisty Galaxy National Book Awards 2010.

Chanel's War - Richard Wallace
A few days after Paris was liberated from the Nazis in August 1944, the most notorious fashion couturière in the world collapsed on a hotel bed in Switzerland after escaping the French capitol and certain death. How did an exhausted Coco Chanel get there and who helped her evade warring Allied and German troops?For 80 years, this incredible feat of courage, luck, and ingenuity in the midst of immense danger has been deliberately shrouded in disinformation and secrecy by family, friends, wary governments, risk-averse business partners, and fellow collaborators. But now, with the aid of new information contained in previously unreleased private French Résistance papers and a new assessment of discredited evidence from organised crime figures, what really happened to Coco Chanel during that fascinating and scandalous period of her life between 1944 and 1954 can finally be revealed.
