According to legend, the camellia is a beautiful but soulless flower that personifies the coldness and callousness of feelings. She is the emblem of beautiful, but hard-hearted women who lure without love and destroy.
Beautiful camellia flowers have repeatedly appeared in the jewelry collections of the French House, and in 2019, Chanel presented a new high-jewelery collection ‘1.5 1 CAMÉLIA. 5 ALLURE where Mademoiselle Chanel’s favorite flower takes center stage. The new collection includes 50 high-jewelery items, 23 of which are transformers with two or more ways of wearing.
Camellia is not just a flower. This is Gabrielle Chanel’s mascot, a style manifesto. In 1913, Mademoiselle is said to have borrowed a flower in a dandy’s buttonhole to adorn one of her chiffon skirts. Its sophisticated and elegant geometry can become a symbol of one whose character is unpredictable.
Gabrielle loved camellias. This flower, similar to a rose, but without scent and thorns, a symbol of simplicity and purity, has become the embodiment of the ideals of Coco Chanel. Chanel’s style and character were more suited not to lush roses, but to the restraint and geometric perfection of camellias, the strict order of their petals, their clear beauty.
