Inspired by the House's signature fragrance, the legendary ‘Chanel No 5’, the book explores five central themes – the suit, the camellia, jewelry, fragrances and make-up, and the little black dress – and follows the threads from past to present to show how these key items have been rediscovered and reinvented by fashion designers working in the footsteps of their illustrious predecessors. This visual journey is enhanced by previously unpublished archive photographs and original drawings by Karl Lagerfeld, as well as glorious images from some of the greatest names in fashion photography.

REVIEW
This is an absolutely beautiful Book. However, and I've noticed this with photos in other reviews, the book jacket is not symmetrical. If you notice the side, the words are not centered. They are too low-set , and part of that area dedicated to the title & author continues to the back, also throwing off the rear photo alignment. I thought, as others have suggested, that the jacket simply shifted as the books we're wrapped in plastic, but if you examine closely, you'll see that you can't realign it to make it symmetrical. Moving it in one direction throws it off in the other. The rear photo should cover entire back, but there's white space on one side. If you pull it to fit properly, it takes too much of the black front and makes the inside margins uneven. It seems there was a miscalculation with the measurements when the sleeves were printed. I'm guessing this is the reason this book is SO inexpensive, but selling SO we'll, so Amazon isn't complaining. Now, that being said, it is a lovely book, with beautiful photos and enough information to still make this a good value.
