"Fashion is not just about dresses: fashion is something in the air. Fashion is in the sky, the street. Fashion is about ideas, the way we live, what is happening".
Coco Chanel
This week I want to write about Coco Chanel because it is a clear example of entrepreneur's woman. This woman changed the course of fashion and had a unique vision that made her to succeed quickly.
Coco Chanel was the daughter of a salesman and a housewife, both of few resources. Her real name was Gabrielle Chanel. Her nickname “Coco” no one knows for sure where it comes from, but some people said that her aunts called “Coco”, other people said it was a kind of Stage name and another likelihood was that it comes from the word “Cocotte” which means “non-working woman”.
Coco started in the fashion world because women (including Coco) weren’t happy with position in society, and they didn’t like the clothes they had to wear either. One of these people was a Gabrielle Chanel. When she went into business in 1910, she planned change the clothes that women wore. But over the next sixty years she did much more than that, as she became one of the richest and most successful businesswoman of the century.
¿ Do you think that nowadays the world need women as Coco Chanel with innovative ideas? ¿ Do you think that young people don’t have innovative ideas because they have lost the creativity? ¿Do you think that years ago most things were invented because the needs of people were bigger?

I like pretty much your article but, in order to answer one of your questions, I wouldn’t say that young people don’t have innovative ideas or lack of creativity because, some decades before, people still need to think about how to satisfy those basic needs that humans had and, there were lots of people who were thinking in how to solve them.
ResponderEliminarAt the time, we haven’t enough people investing in research or in innovative facts and, as all those basic necessities are covered, a new problem appear: we need more people thinking in how to create new necessities for the society, and this is not a easy job.
