If you look her info up, at one point during the German Occupation of France,she was staying at the Hotel Ritz due to a relationship with a German officer. She also tried to use her "Aryan" position to gain sole profits from her Chanel line. She had a known distaste for Jewish people.

How disappointing! Now I want to get rid of my entire Chanel collection.

As for designer brands I will never buy, let it be Chanel (and I'm not Jewish!).

You know, at the time people did not know what nazism really was about. People had no idea. Just like with Putin in Russia now. People there don't really understand what is going on. The people are not the ones in wrong though . Their leader is ;)

Sadly, a lot had no idea. Hitler was an accomplished speaker who made it sound like the best thing in the world. He lured them in with a silver tongue. They found out later on just how bad it really was but it was already to late, the damage was done.

Lol this thread is fun. I don't like LV purses , but I'm ok with their small leather goods. Funny enough, lv was the first high end bags I used to collect. However , I sold them ALL. It just looks "old and somehow boring "to me. And yes I'm the fan of Chanel and Balenciaga.

Ps : it may be true that balenciaga lovers don't like lv purses lol. Every time I saw people with balenciaga , it turns my head twice!

I got a Michael Kors before I knew much about bags. The more I started to look around though, the more I realised all his bags look like others :nogood: Not just his bags but his watches too. And that's such a turn off for me, I'll never buy another Michael Kors.

Looking at the beginning of this thread, it's been mentioned that lots of LV lovers aren't Balenciaga fans, and vice versa, I wonder if this will change with Nicholas Ghesquiere at Louis Vuitton! :laugh:

I read this somewhere in the forum as well(about Bal fans not being LV fans, and vice versa)... I do not know if I am in the minority or what, but I actually like both. At this point, I am a bigger Bal fan, but am definitely still an LV fan as well. :D Both my Bals and LV have served me well.
