Chanel has launched a new collection of small brooches at its boutiques, designed for women who truly understand the significance of such accessories. Those women who invest their heart and soul into their personal style tend to cherish the meaning of a brooch even more. Coco Chanel herself pinned a brooch on her hat and advised the fashionable ladies who imitated her: A brooch is very practical; it can be worn on a suit lapel, a pocket, a hat, a belt, or even on an evening gown.
