Gabrielle Bonheur "Coco" Chanel (19 August 1883 – 10 January 1971)[1] was a French fashion designer. She was a founder of the House of Chanel. She was the only fashion designer to be named on TIME Magazine's 100 most influential people of the 20th century.[2] She broke free of conventions and became a role model for some. Her behaviour during the German occupation of France in World War II led to criticism.[3]
