The biggest name in female fashion design? Gabrielle Chanel. It seems obvious today, but it wasn’t always the case. Beginning in the late 1920s, her supremacy was fiercely contested. Another designer, just as famous and equally admired, disputed the title of the ‘queen of haute couture’, from Paris to Hollywood… Her name? Elsa Schiaparelli.
