| Chanel herself told different versions of her childhood. The only fact that seems to be certain is that she was born in the small city of Saumur, Maine-et-Loire, France ant her parents were: Albert Chanel, a traveling salesman and Jeanne Devolle, his companion. Her mother died when she was 6 and soon after, her father left the family. The young Chanel had to spend seven years in the Catholic monastery orphanage in Aubazine, where she learned the trade of a seamstress. |

In some years Chanel made many friends among which were generous and wealthy men – a military officer and later an English industrialist. They were the ones to help her open a shop in Paris in 1913 selling ladies' hats. The shop was of a great success and she moved her Chanel clothing business to Rue Cambon, a famous shopping strit in Paris. Some years after, in 1921 Chanel introduced Chanel No. 5 perfume, and it became popular porfume around the world. |
