Assouline Chanel The Legend of an Icon

Assouline has revisited its best-selling Ultimate volume Chanel: The Impossible Collection in an updated, new format that allows readers to easily browse through the history of the Maison over and over again. In Chanel: The Legend of an Icon, journalist Alexander Fury’s text and selection of one hundred pieces meet archival and contemporary imagery, creating the definitive compendium on Chanel’s rich legacy where the timeless Little Black Dress, impeccably simple tweed suit and two-tone pump meet abundant strands of faux pearls and stones, diamond-quilted leather handbags and apothecary-style perfume bottles.
