Coco Chanel was one of the most important designers in history, and one of the most innovative during the First World War, she produced a break with the opulent and impractical elegance of the Belle Époque and created a line of casual, simple, and comfortable clothes. Coco Chanel stood out for seeking comfort and simplicity in her designs, but without forgetting elegance.

In the 1920s, she incorporated garments that were only used by men to the women's wardrobe. She dressed the woman in pants, raincoats, tweed vests, wool jerseys, and sailor berets. We could say that she introduced the androgynous look among women. We told you about some aspects of her that highlighted her as an innovative woman and that broked schemes.
 
INNOVATION IN MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES THAT SEEK THE WELFARE AND EMPOWERMENT OF WOMEN:

She introduced the use of new fabrics such as wool and tweed in jackets, skirts, vests, or suits, highlighting the wool set consisting of a straight jacket and a short straight skirt. She also revolutionized the world of accessories with collections of costume jewelry, as opposed to the ornate jewelry worn by women of the time.

INNOVATIVE AND EMPOWERED DESIGNS FROM THE 30'S:

In the 30s she created more feminine garments full of romance. She appeared in the famous black dress, which was tight, neckless, with long sleeves and without cuffs. She also incorporated the strapless style based on dresses and skirts with roominess and ruffles at the bottom, the two-tone shoes with lock and the almost bare heel, the use of the combination of beige, white and black. And the peculiar quilted bag.
