From Aubazine’s religious songs to the concert halls Gabrielle Chanel regularly frequented, music was an essential part of her life: like a perfume in the air, which gives the present its dimension and sometimes even its meaning.
Among painters and writers who formed her circle of intimate friends, Gabrielle Chanel was surrounded by musicians such as her close companion Misia Sert and composer Igor Stravinsky. Music has been a constant source of inspiration for the creators at CHANEL. From the fashion shows to the muses and ambassadresses, music is part of the House’s DNA and is inscribed firmly in the here and now.
