Fashion is in the sky, in the street,
Fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live,
what is happening.
Coco Chanel
Coco Chanel was a visionary who changed the world. She saw more in the way we live. Fashion does not just exist in clothing. Just look at our city of Griffith! Take a walk down the street, look at the way we live....
... What a fashionable city!
