1. Inès De La Fressange
Originally appearing in the late 1970s, Inès De La Fressange became the first supermodel to secure an exclusive contract with Chanel in 1983. Both photographers and designers soon came to love her for her special mix of grace and charm. But celebrity is not without drama; Inès discovered herself caught in a well-publicized conflict with Chanel’s creative director, the venerable Karl Lagerfeld. This contest became a cultural event stressing the complexity of the fashion business, not only about style. Having a four-decade career, Inès De La Fressange shows no slowing down. She started her own fashion lines and works with other brands, having moved from modelling to successful entrepreneurship. Establishing the benchmark for French girl style, Inès has evolved into a necessary component of French society since she embodies the easy elegance defining Parisian fashion. She has also added her artistic touch to a Uniqlo cooperation, a relationship that still shapes modern fashion trends, not surprisingly.
