Perfect saying. Today I caught 2 people talking behind my back. I let them know I really didn't care what they were saying. And I don't care. But wish I'd had heard that saying first.
@A Moye Absolutely and it didn't end with WW2, the assholes just continued into this day and age. That is why history is simply repeating itself. We just don't learn but we will when we kill ourselves off.
I wrote it down as soon as it was said! I'm adding, "I dont care what you think of me, I dont think of you at all.". Side note: she was not a nazi conspirator, she was a smart woman who kept her mouth shut in order to survive. Back than was a different time, it wasnt a time where "Silence is Consent." At least not for women. Many never speak on it but they were well placed to help behind the scenes. We will never know how many women and men were big parts of the war efforts. Most people dont understand, that's why they wont forgive her, not because they truly believe she's guilty of war crimes. She has my upmost respect.
Was thinking about the WW2 thing about rather there were people believe in Poland in a documentary I was watching where they were forced to make uniforms (was a totalitarian regime anyway so if they refused they'd be possibly killed) living on really meagre rations really they hated it, but thinking ever since if you've got a gun to your head practically all the time you're going to do as you're told
Mich G You never know there was a fine print until it's too late . That's the point of modern contracts especially with the government and insurance companies
she didn't want to improve the world. at most she wanted to improve herself and fashion. If she wanted to improve the world, she wouldn't have been a coward and a Nazi spy.
@@ahippy8972 nope I was disappointed too. I guess history just pulls more males. The had the figures out at one point for this and a couple of their channels. I'm guessing more girls come to TH-cam for make up.
I’m a woman, and I’ve watched a LOT of these videos now (and recommend this channel to basically everyone I meet!). I always thought of Chanel as bougie and never really appealed to me, but after hearing her biography, I think she’s my “feminine soul sister” lol. What she did for women- especially for women who can’t afford upper class clothing is really impressive. Her views on clothes are also impressive. I love her “body positivity” attitude. I came out of this loving her as a person though still being critical of high fashion brands- the moral dilemmas of life...
I’m a female photographer, and not only do I love this channel already, but I’m so happy you all made this specific video. I honestly never knew much about Coco Chanel, but I have been in a creative rut for a little while, and hearing her wise words and no nonsense attitude, I feel inspired. You have a loyal subscriber here!
Occam's razor states that the simplest answer is probably the correct one (this is oversimplifying it, but you get the gist). I don't think it's because he was Jewish, I think it was because he was just a prick who saw an opportunity.
My mom met Coco in her last years. My mom worked as an au pair for a doctor in Paris on Rue Daumier. She said Coco was very sick and it hurt to sit down. She gave my mom some free perfume and didn't treat her like the hired help that she was.
@@Biographics , Is it possible a video can be done about the life of the Norte Dame Cathedral in Paris? With the massive fire devastating such an significant cultural, religious and historical monument and almost losing some of important artifacts and treasures. It would mean a lot to some of us.
Lady viewer here from Uruguay! I love this channel. :) As Maria Mitchell expressed: "We have a hunger of the mind which asks for knowledge of all around us, and the more we gain, the more is our desire; the more we see, the more we are capable of seeing." Thank you for appeasing our hunger for knowledge! :)
Your post inspire me to suggest that you apply your thirst for knowledge to the bible and and to GOD's plan for mankind. Strong's Concordance is a handy help with word study.
One of the 10% of females here. I watch your videos every day. Learning is my favorite hobby. Love all your videos! Definitely one of my favorite channels! 😁
With so much conversation about biographies about women swirling around, this may be a good place to mention we have all our female bios in a playlist. You can watch them all here: th-cam.com/video/VO9He_KhGy4/w-d-xo.html
Not female, completely uninterested in fashion, but LOVED this video because it's a fascinating story, and fascinating stories can be about anyone who creates a fascinating life - male, female, or anywhere in between!
I watch BioGraphics constantly. Simon is a fantastic narrator so it’s better than any podcast or radio or Netflix stream to just have running while I work. The fact that I’m sitting here working on a fashion illustration and listening to the story of this amazing woman only makes it 100xs better. ^^ keep up the amazing work you fantastic people.
Petra44YT Nein! Because it supports the channel? If you like what you’re watching then subscribe, you’re helping a channel you enjoy watching so why not?
Woman viewer here too. I watch a ton of your videos. I loved this one on Coco. I didn't know much about here so this was a great way to get an idea of who she was.
I'm a woman and I appreciate your channel and the amount of time and research you put into all of these videos. I very much enjoy learning more about the women in times long past. Keep it up. :)
It's crazy how current that photo at 6:07 looks, with her in the striped long sleeve tee. The closest I've ever been to wearing Chanel is the perfume, but her influence on all of fashion is undeniable, even if it didn't come under the specific label.
I gotta say, I’ve watched dozens of Simon’s videos and am subscribed to top tens and today I found out....I did not realize I was not here. If you’ve seen anything she has made or designed, you will never miss another Chanel inspired garment. She was a rock star, even before there was rock music. 😉
This woman loves all of your channels. I love history and I love learning. My grandma always said “Knowledge is no load to carry”, so keep up the good work.
I r a woman, I like her saying about wearing what u feel comfortable in, I get told constantly I have a weird style but its what I like, I hate looking like everyone else
I know a man who knew Otto Skorzney when he was young. He used to work on the same farm as him in Kildare. He had no Idea who or what he was until years later

Hi Simon. Big fan here. A few ideas on remarkable women you may also want to consider: - Veronica Franco, 16th century Venetian courtesan and poet; - Queen Anne of England, during whose reign the Act of Unification came to be; - Elena Cornaro Piscopia, first woman in modern history to obtain a university degree; - Artemisia Gentileschi, now considered one of the most important 17th century painter; - Marguerite of Valois, sister to Francis I of France, and a great patron of the French Renaissance; - Jane Grey, queen of England for 9 days in 1553; - Queen Maria Sophie of the Two Sicilies who rallied against Garibaldi; - Empress Carlota of Mexico If there is not enough material for Biographics, it would make a good Top Tenz "Important women you never heard of/don't know much about".
I once watched a documentary about her whe i was a kid, and i found my Passion for Fashion trough her. Now having again watched her, i feel like i got a wakeup call again.

A ten percenter here. Biographies and nonfiction are so much more compelling to me than fantasy. There’s always something to learn about culture and history by the amazing individuals who shape it. Their personal trials, their victories and foibles can serve as inspiration or cautionary tales. And more often than not, I’m left saying, “You can’t make this stuff up!”

I love this biography so much. I've listened to it a few times and draw inspiration from Cocoa's life. Thank you for posting these bio graphics They are truly a joy to listen to.
Ray Kent like Chanel said. Fashion is in the sky, it’s about how we live and think. what we do, or not do. If you have clothing on your body you are interested in “fashion”. I’m assuming your referencing how you have no interest in the clothes and jewelry rich and famous people indulge in, and therefor have no interest to conform in obtaining them. Or you have no interest in vogue magazine or style blogs.. etc etc. which is fine, but that’s the glamour and illusion of “the business of fashion” you think it’s just about pretty expensive useless consumer products that no one really needs to live or survive... but it’s much more than that... the entire fashion industry is actually ‘social engineering’ its the codes,blueprints, materials on culture and human civilization. In ancient Egypt the pharaohs wore elaborate costumes not because it was fun, but because they had to make themselves identifiable as a divine creature, someone who has a superior authority over the other men woman and children whom surrounded them..but not to go on a huge rant... I will leave you with a question...is it not ironic that the shirt on your back.. the shoes on your feet... the watch on your wrist..the house that you sleep, eat, and bathe in, will be here existing with a physical presence long after we pass on our own physical presence?
I really enjoy your videos in general but especially when I’m anxious your stories are interesting and your voice is really relaxing and helps me chill out Thank you! Educational & Therapeutic 😄👍
I’m a woman! I’m in your 10%! I absolutely love this channel so much. And I learned a lot from this episode of Biographics. I’m going to share it to a Facebook makeup group I’m in! Love Chanel. It’s a status symbol for sure 😍
Lady viewer here. Love these videos. Definitely, do more. I'm waiting on Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabelle of Castiel and Catherine the Great. Please and thanks.
I think it’s an inspiring story that shows you that under privileged woman can become successful. Coco showed the world and made it up the ladder with hard work!!! Her brand has survived wars and her legacy will always live on Very interesting story I’m new to your channel!!
I absolutely love this channel, it's so interesting to learn about people throughout history. I swear I learn more watching this than I ever learned from a history book. Keep up the amazing work 💕
So did her father ever get back into her life? I don't know why that is what I came away from this asking, but I am curious now. That's what I love about your varied channels. Not only do they teach me something, but they send me down various rabbit holes trying to learn more.

"I don't care what you think of me. I don't think about you at all."
What an awesome quote. Words to live by.
Perfect saying. Today I caught 2 people talking behind my back. I let them know I really didn't care what they were saying. And I don't care. But wish I'd had heard that saying first.
@A Moye You'd be surprised how many people were NAZI sympathizer's and whore's in those days.
@A Moye Absolutely and it didn't end with WW2, the assholes just continued into this day and age. That is why history is simply repeating itself. We just don't learn but we will when we kill ourselves off.
Beautiful
"I don't care what you think of me. "...is enough.
“When you are feeling sad add more lipstick and attack”. My new favorite quote.
Made me want to wear lipstick and ima dude. What an absolute madlass
Michael, go for it.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
I wrote it down as soon as it was said! I'm adding, "I dont care what you think of me, I dont think of you at all.".

Sounds like a common Japanese quote in anime. Attack is a positive directive to take the initiative and go all in with joy
The most expensive thing she ever wore was her name. It's a very impressive story.
Was thinking about the WW2 thing about rather there were people believe in Poland in a documentary I was watching where they were forced to make uniforms (was a totalitarian regime anyway so if they refused they'd be possibly killed) living on really meagre rations really they hated it, but thinking ever since if you've got a gun to your head practically all the time you're going to do as you're told

Moral of the story: don't sign a contract without reading the fine print.
Exactly.

You never know there was a fine print until it's too late . That's the point of modern contracts especially with the government and insurance companies
If this was any other channel there would be the triple parenthesis with that statement that is so common on TH-cam. Hahaha

She was a Nazis! End of!
A Moye she created the little black dress and the Chanel jacket. These are ubiquitous now.
@Erudite di'Cosmos she was a whore, and those men weren't whores
she didn't want to improve the world. at most she wanted to improve herself and fashion. If she wanted to improve the world, she wouldn't have been a coward and a Nazi spy.
"I don't think about you at all." is a very chilling quote in that context.
Yeah, I don't think they addressed that issue very well at all. Really insensitive to valid concerns.

Hi Simon. Big fan here. A few ideas on remarkable women you may also want to consider:
- Veronica Franco, 16th century Venetian courtesan and poet;
- Queen Anne of England, during whose reign the Act of Unification came to be;
- Elena Cornaro Piscopia, first woman in modern history to obtain a university degree;
- Artemisia Gentileschi, now considered one of the most important 17th century painter;
- Marguerite of Valois, sister to Francis I of France, and a great patron of the French Renaissance;
- Jane Grey, queen of England for 9 days in 1553;
- Queen Maria Sophie of the Two Sicilies who rallied against Garibaldi;
- Empress Carlota of Mexico

They are truly a joy to listen to.
As a non-woman, I still enjoyed the video.
And we appreciate that.
As a non-woman who has no interest in fashion, I did too!
I agree. This one was interesting. So much to learn about different people.
Ray Kent like Chanel said. Fashion is in the sky, it’s about how we live and think. what we do, or not do. If you have clothing on your body you are interested in “fashion”. I’m assuming your referencing how you have no interest in the clothes and jewelry rich and famous people indulge in, and therefor have no interest to conform in obtaining them. Or you have no interest in vogue magazine or style blogs.. etc etc. which is fine, but that’s the glamour and illusion of “the business of fashion” you think it’s just about pretty expensive useless consumer products that no one really needs to live or survive... but it’s much more than that... the entire fashion industry is actually ‘social engineering’ its the codes,blueprints, materials on culture and human civilization. In ancient Egypt the pharaohs wore elaborate costumes not because it was fun, but because they had to make themselves identifiable as a divine creature, someone who has a superior authority over the other men woman and children whom surrounded them..but not to go on a huge rant... I will leave you with a question...is it not ironic that the shirt on your back.. the shoes on your feet... the watch on your wrist..the house that you sleep, eat, and bathe in, will be here existing with a physical presence long after we pass on our own physical presence?
@@raykent3211 As a woman who has no interest in fashion, and even less interest in fashion designers, I enjoyed this video also.
I really enjoy your videos in general but especially when I’m anxious your stories are interesting and your voice is really relaxing and helps me chill out Thank you! Educational & Therapeutic 😄👍
Thanks :).
I’m a woman! I’m in your 10%! I absolutely love this channel so much. And I learned a lot from this episode of Biographics. I’m going to share it to a Facebook makeup group I’m in! Love Chanel. It’s a status symbol for sure 😍
I've got her autobiography, this woman was and still is an inspiration to me
Sweet! I'd love more inspiring ladies biographies ♡ they're all interesting but this just gave me an energy boost!
Why are you inspired by her??
I'm a part of that 10% and I am subscribed. I love learning new stuff, especially about history and science.
Lady viewer here. Love these videos. Definitely, do more.
I'm waiting on Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabelle of Castiel and Catherine the Great. Please and thanks.
All our female videos can be found here. th-cam.com/video/VO9He_KhGy4/w-d-xo.html I think Catherine the Great is in our queue.
I've mentioned before, but I'd love Olympe de Gouges
I didn't realize I was part of a 10% population. But Simon is in the top 10% of voices I like listening too regularly. So thanks for all you do.
Loved the video! I can’t believe only 10% of your audience is female! Would you be willing to cover Valentina Tereshkova or Edith Cavell?
Hi, female here. I’ve been watching your videos for a year or more; I really enjoy them.
You should do a video on Stan Lee before Endgame comes out.
rum runner already done!
I think it’s an inspiring story that shows you that under privileged woman can become successful. Coco showed the world and made it up the ladder with hard work!!! Her brand has survived wars and her legacy will always live on Very interesting story I’m new to your channel!!
Female here;) love your content! Thank you for the videos!:0
If she could amass a fortune that huge on only 10% of the profits it shows how massive a markup high fashion has.
If you don't like markups try making it yourself, value goes beyond the material cost
Glad the nazi didnt get anything
Looking fine, Simon! 😙😍
I'm a woman and proud to be a subscriber to Biographics, Today I Found Out, and a host of other channels that cover history.
I'm in the 10%! Love Biographics!
I absolutely love this channel, it's so interesting to learn about people throughout history. I swear I learn more watching this than I ever learned from a history book. Keep up the amazing work 💕
My husband and i love watching these. I got him into it ;)
So did her father ever get back into her life? I don't know why that is what I came away from this asking, but I am curious now. That's what I love about your varied channels. Not only do they teach me something, but they send me down various rabbit holes trying to learn more.
No one will ever have the same eye for class, style and clothing.
The one and only Coco Chanel.
yes the one and only Nazi....Coco
I am a woman that is now addicted to your channel. Love the vids and learned SO much from this!
69% of my enjoyment here is now Simon's smooth transitions to the commercials ngl
Soon you will only want to see the sponsorships....
