INFLUENCE

Chanel influenced the way women dressed by

replacing the corset with comfort and casual

elegance attire. Her relaxed designs, short skirts,

and casual looks were in sharp contrast to the corset

fashions popular in the previous decades. Chanel

herself dressed in mannish clothes, and adapted

these more comfortable fashions which other women

also found liberating.
