Coco Chanel is probably the most renowned fashion woman who became a self-made millionaire in a world where women were seen mostly in the shadow of their men, rather than having their own identity. She managed to found a fashion empire proving the world that women can also turn into successful entrepreneurs as long as they are gifted with talent and ambition to succeed. She always considered that once creating for herself various clothes and Jewelry items, she can do the same for others. This is how she considered opening her own fashion house introducing on the market her own creations.
In the meanwhile she designed also various pieces of jewelry becoming at the same time the first designer known to work with imitative jewelry bringing imitation to the status of artistic creation. This is how nowadays Coco Chanel Wedding rings have reached that design that include the famous CC logo containing either diamonds or Swarovski crystals incorporated on various choices of precious metal.
Coco Chanel was known to wear jewelry herself, but she also mentioned that these beautiful pieces of jewelry should be worn for decorative purpose only and not to show the wealth of the one wearing them. She can set herself as an example in this way, as she had never worn the valuable collection of jewelry she got from her rich friends. Instead she would have worn her costume jewelry during the daytime on various occasions, be they informal or formal ones, while during the evening she wasn’t used to wear jewelry at all.
At the beginning of the 20s, Coco Chanel introduced to the public her collection of luxurious costume jewelry that were presented along with simple cuts and designs of dresses made of fabrics that suited very well the specific jewelry. There were entire jewelry sets made with fake pearls and they were so widely admired that pretty soon many women adopted this style accepting for fake jewels to be part of their daily outfit.
