Sep 23, 2019 - In 1925, Chanel introduced the now iconic Chanel suit, which features the collarless jacket and well-fitted skirt. Her designs were revolutionary for the time—incorporating elements of men’s wear and emphasizing comfort over the constraints of then-popular fashions. She pioneered the evolution of womenswear moving away from corsets and other confining garments. Chanel's classic little black dress was also revolutionary, taking a colour associated with mourning and making it chic evening wear.

Today, the Chanel tweed jacket might be a classic but at inception it was a whole new concept of dress. British Vogue takes a look at the catwalk evolution of the Chanel tweed jacket, worn here by Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Kaia Gerber, Naomi Campbell, Carla Bruni, Cara Delevingne and Devon Aoki.
