#1 Chanel, who would become the epitome of French chic, was born in 1883. She was descended from a tribe of peasants who lived on the edge of a chestnut forest in the Cévennes and were driven by the blight to become itinerant peddlers.
#2 Chanel's life was changed when she met Étienne Balsan, a rich ex-cavalry officer, who became her paramour. She put her needle, thread, and cafe coquetry aside to live with him and his friends in the forest of Compiègne.
#3 Chanel's life changed in the space of a few months. She had met and fallen in love with Étienne Balsan, a wealthy industrialist who had supplied uniforms to the French army. She had developed solid equestrian skills and taught herself how to manage the stables.
#4 In 1908, Chanel fell in love with Arthur Capel, Balsan's riding partner and friend. Capel helped Chanel launch a business making ladies' hats. They were now soul mates.
