Amazingly Beautiful Not only is this book beautifully designed, but it’s incredibly informative. I was able to get an expert overview about the Fashion Industry, and then an even more in depth view on the world of Chanel. Each section is beautifully appointed with a wide array of images and inside stories about the brand.Would highly recommend this book to anyone!
