Love your content guys! You are fantastic! Suggestion: Blessed Karl, the Last Emperor of austria
😊😊😊
Nazi collaborator and lover
Wow, it seems more than a little ironic that you are promoting such a product in light of the grim war content of this video.
I don't support cocochanel yes it passed to a Jewish fam but she was as guilty of war crimes
The best documentary about Coco I've come across, not romanticized. Thank you for sharing.
I heartily agree. So informative.
I once saw a documentary about her which included interviews with her in her later years. She attested that she left Paris after the war "because it was no longer interesting." Naturally, she made no mention that a large percentage of the French population wanted to shave her head and string her up.
Rightfully so
No doubt i can honestly say she stank to high heaven ( pardon the pun ) !!!!! 🤧🤧🤧
Why should she 😊 positive woman moving on to better things in her life 😊
@@deutschesmaedchenwhy? 😮
How ironic can it be for Coco Chanel to be a Nazi collaborator while working for a Jewish family, ie the Wertheimers!
I love the irony of a Jewish family taking control over the entire brand in the end
That doesn't let Coco off the hook.
@@elizabethkipp5628 I didn't say or imply that it did, but ok lol
@@LtColShingSides sorry - it just angers me that her brand is still doing business and that people are so willing to make excuses for her behavior. Yes, it's some sort of justice that a Jewish family is benefitting.
@@elizabethkipp5628 I think it's the perfect ending. A terrible person had their entire brand rightfully taken by the group she tried to bring down.
@@elizabethkipp5628 this is not a point - the Jewish family took control over the brand which was linked to Nazis, where is the morality here?
It's important to remember that the events here affected real people who are living today. The area in France where my mother was born was occupied by Nazis when she was 14. She saw jewish friends and neighbors taken off, first to Orléans then to extermination camps. Her family had been locally prominent in the previous century, but now was viciously divided between collaborators and resistors. After the war, she saw female collabotators stripped naked and forced to walk village streets while angry neighbors threw stones and filth at them. People she knew executed others she knew or knew of. She became a fashion model in Paris in the very early years after the war, before models were glamorous and widely known. She had a deep, abiding dislike and disregard for Chanel, always calling her a sell-out and traitor. Collaborators caused real harm among their countrymen.
Chanel is long dead, the business is largely Jewish owned, so the Nazi connection has become irrelevant.
My mother, who was herself a seamstress, was a great fan of Chanel, I think, like most people, unaware of the Nazi connection.
And that's what she was
@@frieda3357 my mom moved to the US after the war. She always LOVED fashion but would never buy anything Chanel until the mid-seventies. Collaborators were SO damaging to their countrymen.
Thank you for sharing your mother’s story and verifying the truth of Jamel’s life. It sounds like she only bought Chanel after she died. Thank goodness the original Jewish owner’s grandson retained the company.
@@MoofManiac I totally agreed with you. My mother was traumatized by seeing the Jews in her village, families who had been part of the community for centuries, marched off Orléans and then to Germany and extermination. This made my family very sensitive to anti-Semitism, and I see it today growing a new head on university campuses recently, masquerading as "anti colonialism."
I never knew about her collaboration with the Nazis. That is certainly a blemish on her character. She was a gifted designer. It's too bad that some who are born into humble beginnings forget and become greedy and self-absorbed. People should never forget and keep their humanity. That's a far better narrative for history.
Well said.
well its not like it is presented...she was a link for English ...that is why she was never prosecuted in France and could live peacefully in Swis. + she hated her bussines partner - he was using her.
She was working for the alliance & did it with nazi connections bc they were holding her son prisoner of war. She was working with nazis opposing hitler. They were using her connections to Churchill trying to strike a peace with Britain & planning Hitler's assassination.
Don't see why her collaboration with the Nazis are a blemish. All germans had to be members of the Natiinal Socialist German Workers Party. Does not make them all bad/ evil. You cannot put every one of them in one basket. There are always bad apples. I have passed family who were members and they weren't evil. It was beneficial for them at that time like for the majority of the German people
You make a fine point about maintaining your humanity. That being the case, why did the Jewish family who gained control of all the shares in the company not follow your good advice and remove the vile Nazi collaborator's name "Coco Chanel" fom the product !
I am glad that the Jewish family was able to take 100% ownership.
they are thiefs..
I don't know the whole story I just like her work
Well, the devil doesn't just wear Prada apparently....
Ha!! Good one!
Prada not known anti-semites
Ordinary people acuse other people without proof
Shut up
I didn't know about her collaboration. I'm glad the Wertheimers regained control over the enterprise. Justice served to some extent.
Elle a été spoliée par cette famille puissante, qui est exilée fiscale en Suisse😅😅😅
It's not too late - I too knew nothing of her Nazi relationships - but, now that I've learned this - I've thrown out my "Coco" perfume and will never purchase anything Chanel again.
@@elizabethkipp5628👍👍👍💗💗
I always heard, she was some Nazi officer's lover living in Occupied Paris. Raised without a moral compass but a survivor, I guess.
@@elizabethkipp5628 Except that most of the proceeds now go to to the party who had mainly funded her, a Jewish family whom she sought to
Ambition and integrity rarely meet.
Let’s say unfettered & unchecked ambition rarely meet. Many people are ambitious in their lives (personally or professionally) but have ethical/moral lines they won’t cross.
@@lgempet2869 Well said!👏👏👏
Why are there not more photographs of Chanel?
Possibly copywrite issue.
THIS. Should be released as audio only/podcast. What is the point of releasing on YT with no visuals of ANY of her creations, stores, style etc. For sure not subscribing to this channel.
@@ninap.6133so sensitive
Great voice for bedtime!!...i really appreciate the time you take to bring us these vidoes...brilliant, thankyou!❤
Poetic Justice for the Jewish Family.
It seems as though in 2023, a lot of people have no knowledge of her
support of the Nazis.
It's kind of important to know more than just what's on the surface.
Daily Mail published that story years ago.
Yes, Rachel Maddow is educating us about our own brush with facism/Nazism. Whodathunkit.
Around 2008, lifetime channel usa had a chanel movie. That's when I found out she was involved with Nazi and Nazi boyfriend.
I have 2 books I bought in 2008 from Amazon on coco.
Not really that important, tbh.
A new movie out in 2024 somewhat changed that
Thank you to People's Profiles for this and in the manner of education. Now knowing I personally would never endorse or patronize anything of Chanel. May the lives of all lost in the Holocaust be remembered 🌹 and NEVER forgotten. May they all be at peace with the Lord 🕊.
Muh Holocaust!
It might be wise to support Chanel today, since it's owned by the family she tried to cheat and betray. Wouldn't it be much more positively effective to make public statements of: 1. the intelligence and foresight of the current owners in 2. Preventing her from betraying and cheating them?
May the thousands of innocent Arab lives lost in the land belonging to the Palestinians be remembered and never forgotten !
@@den264 may Ion Mihail Pacepa and the other Soviet KGB officers who worked with Arabs to create a Palestinian identity out of whole cloth never be forgotten.
@@den264 It's sad - but don't conflate it with the Holocaust.
The "Coco Chanel" documentary provides a captivating glimpse into the life and work of this iconic designer, shedding light on her influential collaborations. However, it sometimes romanticizes Chanel's controversial personal history, and a more critical examination of her associations could offer a more well-rounded perspective on her legacy.
Appears she was a survivor with flexible boundaries.
That's a very kind way of putting it.
LOL.
Super documentary . Thank you SO much. Such a brilliant designer, such a shame she was a collaborator.
Do not judge i would like to see you under same circumstances and situations.
@dnajamila900 People should absolutely judge a Nazi collaborator. Remember, the vast majority of French people, who didn't have her wealth, power or privilege, did NOT ever collaborate with Hitler and the Nazis. It says everything about you that you try and defend such a person who did.
I have a print that was done by Louis Icart for Coco and signed by her in 1936. I guess this would have been just before her fall from grace owing to the Nazis. I've always loved it, it's so beautiful.
You have a good voice for bedtime so I'm going to have to listen to this documentary and see if your voice helps me sleep. Plus I love documentaries so thank you!
I have a biography of Coco which states her father gave her the nickname and called her this all his life.
😊
Excellentl documentary on this Iconic fashion designer. I remain an avid lover of “Chanel No 5”❤️
I love "Coco" perfume - but I flushed it down the toilet after learning of her Nazi collaborations.
Good video, clear and informative.
I love the music during the credits at the end. It reminds me of watching an old history channel documentary in the 90s. Love this channel!
Thank you!
I want to know more about her relationship with Churchill.
Me too.
They partied, well he was vile. Maybe she reminded him of his mother, another lady dropsy knickers 😂
From this and other articles there can be no doubt that she was an absolute b.... just one with an incredible talent and business acumen. So glad the Wertheimers got almost all of it in the end 😊
By the sound of things it was the Jewish partner who was attempting to stiff her. Only 10% to her considering she invented the perfume and gave her name to the product ! Grand larceny comes to mind.
@@den264no she tried to use the nazi racial law to get them out and steal the business, they came back after and took what was rightfully thiers, watch the documentary 1st b4 u make useless comments
Big difference with Marlene Dietrich, the German woman that despised the Nazi and did all she could to bring them down.
@@den264A chemist invented the perfume, Clearly said here, she knew sewing but no chemistry.
Great documentary, thank you
Man I'm so glad I found this channel, luckily today I get an afternoon nap story
I work with leather too. I love watching your hands. They dance ballet as you work. Your precision is next level ❤️
Thanks, it was a very interesting documentary
I'm in the process of writing a thesis about Chanel as this video helped a lot for the part about her collaboration, thanks a lot you'll be on the top of my bibliography/sources!
Why is there no photos of Coco and the people around her ,connecting to her to backup this documentary??
It might be a copywrite issue with photos.
What a life ! The rich tapestry you paint is spot on. Thanks much
Thank you for this information.
Enjoyed this
It was very interesting. "All secret becomes clear" Thank you!
I knew about her nazi-colloborations, but I didn' know the details. Even if Chanel-products had been something that interested me, I would never buy it because of what she did during the war. My grandfather was arrested by the nazis, luckily both he and his brother-in-law came home.
Glad your grandfather and his brother came home.
My uncle was a child when in the concentration camps. He was German. Came to usa. He refused to talk about it because it was traumatic for him. They did something horrible to him I don't want to say.
Years ago, qvc sold a replica of the paper clip necklace that coco chanel created. It was in the jackie kennedy onasis collection.
I have the paper clip necklace from qvc!😊😊😊😊
She is certainly not benefiting for her company neither her descendants. It all went to the a Jewish family- This is Karma to the finest.
Good
It went to the business partner - she’d had nothing to do with the business side since the mid twenties … he owned 75% of Chanel if I remember reading bout it
@@17hollydog After she died the grandchildren of Wertheimer acquired the whole company- 100% of it. She still has some descendants alive but they got NOTHING. Coco was a brilliant woman and also super cruel. She was just a horrible person and Karma eventually caught her.
@@graciasan460 we will never know the full story of her life but her early life probably had something to do with her later life … we only know what is out there
@@graciasan460 How does she have descendants since she had no children?
Thanks!
Quite educational. Well narrated.
Excellent work by 'The People Profiles.' 👍🏻
The narrator's accent and pronunciation is fluent and cogent.
I'd like to suggest that you make a video on Abraham Lincoln.
This was fascinating!
Great documentary. I learned a lot, I only knew it as a luxury company.
Ironic how the Jewish Wertheimer's were only too happy to do business with her again as soon as they realized it would be profitable to do so.
@@den264did they make a fortune by this business arrangement? They should have as they were responsible for the perfumes creation, and were in charge of all the marketing. Have u watched the documentary?
Wow. I got an earful today. I had no clue.
Love your content guys! Suggestion: Franz Joseph the last great Emperor of europe
God Save The Emperor
Brilliant video ❤
Very informative
Great job. Excellent video. Well researched. Just saw a movie about coco chanel with Audrey t. In the early years. Right after the boyfriend Capel has the car accident and died. Never mentioned once about her nazi collaboration. Her ties or connections. Loved the movie. It is on u tube. So glad I saw this video. Eye opening.
Was it the 2008 lifetime movie about coco chanel?
Her lover was a nazi.
Don't think it was on lifetime. On a utube movie. You can look it up.
Well researched
Gréât documentaire like always 👌
Thank you for this biography on Coco Chanel... truly a fashion icon❤. Well done 💋
That was a shame, she sided with Nazis.
Continue the best biography channel on you tube and most needed
Amazing
Thank you so ❤
Thanks for sharing
What very insightful biography
Excellent documentary on one of the world's most famous fashion designers. Bravo!
Bravo??? She was a Nazi, not a Nazi sympathizer. Let's not play with words. And when compared to the events of WWII in the hardships and cruelty faced by the French people at the hands of the Nazis oh, who cares about fashion? Come on, really?
@@michaelwilson5346she did not join the nazi party, as she was not a german so she was not a nazi.
Coco invents the product, applies her iconic name to it then the Wertheimer family move in and take the lot !
I wonder if even one dollar of the billions in profits made by the Wertheimer family went to assisting the poorest families of the Holocaust !
@@gentlemangaz3651
She was a Nazi collaborator, which means she helped the Nazis. Which means she aided a pack of Murderous Bigots. Why are you cool w/ that?
There were also citizens of Poland, Hungary, Austria, Italy & other nations who helped the Nazis to murder innocent Jews, including babies & children. We must assume by your words that you'd give them a pass for not being German, too. Why?
Hey, were you one of those slimeballs carrying torches & goose-stepping across Charlottesville a few years ago, screaming out your terror of being "replaced by Jews"? Wouldn't be surprising.
Nazis are Not "very fine people", btw. The only folks who think they are? Fellow Nazis. Instead, Nazis are Dangerous Trash, just walking toxins, poisonous to society... both the OG & the newfangled varieties. Most people who know their history will Never Forget. It's just That horrendous. Pick some better "heroes" to worship. Maybe the kind who help others, instead of slaughtering them w/ Mindless Hate.
@@michaelwilson5346 Yes, she was a Nazi sympathizer. I was saying "Bravo" to the content creator's work. The overall presentation still highlighted one of the 20th century's first, most successful, female fashion designers. Not even you can take that away from CoCo Chanel despite her being a Nazi sympathizer.
GREAT DESIGNER- LOVE HER DESIGN OF CHANEL JACKET’S🙏🏻🌹🌿🫶🇮🇸👍
Very interesting.
Good show
Wonderful video. Thank you!
I have asked my family for a bottle of Number 5 for a forthcoming birthday; I now have mixed feelings about this! But it is a lovely perfume ...
Yes, I just said to my friend that it’s made me a tad sad. Number 5 is my favourite perfume. Does taint it a tad. 🙏🙏👵🇦🇺
It’s crazy the company was able to turn that around.
Thank you for being sad about chanel brand. It's been owned by the Jewish family for a long time now.
Amazing designer. ❤
Remind me again what did Sean Connery do? If you get that congratulations.
Great designer, loathsome human
Aren't a great many of us less than perfect?
@@dcollins4679 I'd say we all are, but this is more than less than perfect, I'd hope you would see that
in fact, many great individuals that shaped humankind's history in that period have been affiliated with the Nazis - the fact that doesn't compromise the value of their input.
@@pitchblease989 Indeed it doesn't compromise the value of their input. It only shows what terrible human beings they were. As I said in my original comment
No matter her input, she most definitely was A TERRIBLE HUMAN. As many are. Narcissists often do "Big Things" but at what cost? Their Loved Ones usually suffer at their hands. In the End, they die and are held to account just like everyone else. The carnage they leave in their wake included.
I believe her entanglement with the Nazis party is still relevant today. It should continue to be discussed as should others which held that political bias. Hold people to account for their actions of the past, present and, future is the only way to view history in a fair, clear manner. No matter who you are, Justice is Justice. All need to be held to the same standards.
Which part the Justice portion or Historical perspective?
Either way you're "entitled" to your opinion. “Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it.” Writer and Philosopher George Santayana
Chanel invented a style to mask her deformities! She was rather tall for her time cca.160-62 cm with sharp pointed knees and elbows and a flat breast and behind so far from the feminine 90-60-90 and therefore had to wear very loose garments. See that all her models and most customers have a rather similar body build. I have not seen many women like Monroe Bardot or Ekberg wear a Chanel suit. Wallis Simpson who had a similar conformation was an avid customer
Didn't hurt that Wallis Simpson supported the Nazis, too.
Wallis was a hermaphrodite.
famous or infamous?
Why does this video have pictures of all relevant characters EXCEP Ms Chanel herself?
That’s what I was wondering. It would be interesting to see what she looked like, as I wouldn’t know as I don’t follow celebrities, of past or present.
There was some,be attentive
@@tamaragerasimova2405right lol there’s a lot actually.
Excellent
Interesting, but very odd not to have more photographs or film footage of Chanel, herself. Everything but....
Good for Wertheimer for getting the majority of the company, too bad Chanel still remained rich.
What a disgrace and yet a visionary! Ahead of time by far
BUT it’s shameful part of her past, I wondered if she ever realized her mistake and tried to amend it
That would be interesting to know. She lived long enough to put it into perspective and at least try and make amends.
Les cocottes ne se repentent jamais et embellissent et déforment toujours la réalité surtout avec de tels amants et amis bien nés, c'est la même chose pour Arletty
There must be some very strict copyright rules or some such thing around showing any of the items that are discussed, including the iconic "Little Black Dress," or even Coco herself. I have watched other documentaries on Chanel that talk about, but never show, her or her earlier creations. Instead, there are vague shots of Paris, the ocean, old cars -- things from the period but not the pieces or people being discussed. This make the documentary more like a podcast.
I noted that too. Of what good is that for though? For someone like me in Africa, I'd have really loved to see and learn about my favourite icon whose perfumes I've used for over two decades but I know nothing about the designer.
Another excellent episode, what a life Coco Chanel had! Wonderfully narrated and fascinating from start to finish. What a business woman, but as many successful businesses to come out of WW2, collaboration with the Nazis was key to that success. Keep up the great work.
@@DonnellxxOkafor Hugo Boss designed the Nazi uniforms.
Go kick rocks
@@chemicalqueen5460 He made the uniforms but he didn't design them.
And what most of us would have done to survive or protect loved ones in such situations? Easy for people separated from events by distance, or in our case, time.
@@dcollins4679 She was very rich she didn't need to betray her partner to survive.
I knew about her nazi collaboration, but this documentary was more detailed and complete than any I'd seen. Thank you
I wonder why Churchill interviened for her😮
Sexual relationship... He was a major womanizer.
Churchill couldn't care less about Jews. His concern was the UK being ruled by Germany
Excellent production!! Let’s look at this through a different lens. Is it that Ms. Channel was an Antisemitic? Or was she a self serving businesswoman? And a lone woman protecting what she had built buy the means available to her. Look at her upbringing which must be considered. She tried to take advantage of an unforeseen opportunity to take sole ownership of her company(sleazy for sure). She used men wisely. Could Coco have been a double agent for the British. There’s more to her story than great designer/Nazi collaborator.
I wondered that too with her apparent friendship with Churchill. And him seemingly going to bat for her after the war.
Excellent points! Maybe this is the true back story. I hope so.😢
You could be right.. I knew about her "collaborating" with Germans, but..... was highly surprised, when just recently reading Daniel's Steel book "Spy", in which she tells by the words of the heroine, who became a secret agent for Britain Special Service during WWII and leading missions behind enemy lines, that she was parachuted in France where she had to make acquaintances with high rank Germán officers So, she headed to Paris, to hotel Ritz, where she was supposed to get great help in making those meetings from....... Coco Chanel, and the latest alongside provided her with the best attire needed for evening occasions. So, in the book, Coco Chanel was clearly pictured as an agent helping Britain and French Resistance to fight with Nazi Germans. I believe, she might be a double agent. And, by the way ... the agents were to keep a secret they had worked for Secret Services for twenty years. So, she couldn't legally defend herself. On the other hand.... such agents never quit, at least just go on providing any helpful information whenever they live, and whatever they do....
Great points and insights for consideration. Thx for these points. Doesn't make everything right, of course, but gives possibly more clarity to motives. Also, I'm wondering if the same scrutiny and criticism would have been given to a man in her position. Plus, jealousy, as you mentioned...
War is hell!
Since I heard of her collaboration with the nazis I have never bought anything Chanel. Including the makeup line
Firstly, thank you for taking the time to put together this documentary, I found it interesting and fascinating. Very thought provoking.
I had no idea Coco Chanel had such a chequered past. I don't think I would like her if I had the misfortune to meet her. BUT, now that the Alan Wertheiner's family have control I would definitely support them, BUT based on Coco Chanelle's behaviour and lack of ethics, NO!, I would never support her. I am pleased to say, I never liked Chanell No 5, Dior always resonated with me, but not Chanell! Thank you for a wonderfully informative documentary on Coco......I so appreciate your honesty.
Great designer but like the other person said a lonesome Human!!!
An interesting story
A remarkable woman
Coco Chanel is my favourite perfume
I think, one might also consider the possibility she was a great British Spy with her close
relationship with
Winston Churchill…🤔 I do hope one day they prove this to be fact!
I did enjoy this documentary though.
Maybe she was a double agent of sorts.
I'm disgusted & disappointed that Jacqueline Kennedy would have chosen to wear Chanel--ever! Disappointing. I know she spoke French, but she should've known better!
She was wonderful woman very gifted
I didnt know boujois was part of chanel at one time.
Humble Beginnings, an Honorable Woman
Well, I thank you for sharing this historical Doc. I just feel somewhat disheartened over time seeing more and more accounts of the supposed Elite from France. I regularly purchased her products but I believe I will be purchasing other Brand’s. Maybe 🤔 I just need to research more about key, important historical people and events. Wow, CHANNEL 🤦🏻♀️. I do appreciate the Narrator...excellent choice.
I had just recently learned of her Nazi connections. Your documentary is very well done and taught me a lot more. This knowledge has definitely altered my view of her and of that name. Hmm 🤔
Thank you , very interesting. Sad to learn of her wartime activities and her effort to cheat her business partner was awful. Looks like he knew what type of person she was. Thankfully they were all o.k. Still, I do love her perfume and the name Chanel is still synonymous with fashion. Nice that the original partners were able to do so well. 🙏🙏👵🇦🇺
What would you have her do? Single handedly thrown out every member of an occupying force? Some ww2 French resistance fighting happened because it was paid for.
@@dcollins4679 everyone made decisions. She could have made different ones.
Why is it sad, they are facts and history. It's neither sad nor happy, it's just the truth. No need to become emotional.
@@dcollins4679 I think the lesson here is that one cannot ignore politics. Wherever you are in the world you cannot say 'I'm not interested in politics' or that 'I won't listen to such and such a politician because I don't like what he/she says'. Look what happened in the US on account of many gullible people knowing nothing about Trump. We need to identify authoritarian individuals and soundly reject them. It is also important to reject those who enable these people. I didn't know about Chanel's Nazi leanings, but now that I do, I'll never support anything Chanel again. And I threw out my "Coco" perfume.
Please do one about Alfred Nobel 😀
What was his false obituary nickname again? Doctor dead or something for his work with tnt ? Yea I’d like to see that episode.
Please do one about Count Folk Bernadotte of Sweden.
She was a single aging woman trying to survive. She was a survivor all her life.
No wonder Chanel No 5 smells like sauerkraut.
I pay to not view commercials. Why did I have to endure a commercial doing this
So o i but still get them. Rip off
Can you please do an episode on miep gies, my family and I love watching your videos thank you for the great content
Once read a fascinating article that claimed, through historical review of uniforms, that the best dressed military always lost... no idear if it's true, but fun to think about.

Hugo Boss was a part of the SS and Hitler's party they designed the uniforms for forward to soldiers in Germany
Very interesting bio. Still a big Chanel fan, especially of the make up and of course the perfumes, #5 and some of the Les Exclusifs, just can't afford them anymore.
I've gotten to smell #5. I thunk it smells awful.

@@heathercontois4501 It's was reformulated at some point. Imo, the original smells much better than the newer version, although I cannot pinpoint just how.
