Video Title :	Medavog talks Gabrielle Bonheur "Coco" Chanel
Description :	part 31 on my vintage couture collection that spans 200 years. Coco Chanel died the year that I was born 1971. TRIBUTE TO CHANEL AND KARL LAGERFELD. "Francisco Medavogs collection started off as a small sampling of some European couture designs to help him study FASHION design. By looking at the French seams and other intricacies, he learned about couture construction through the true masters of design. This hobby quickly became a collection of more than 25,000 fashion items, primarily 20th century European designs, with a number of them extending back to the 1920s and 30s. "At first, I didn't quite understand why so many people were interested in seeing these clothes," says Francisco. "For me, the clothes were simply great examples of what I was able to study while at the Fashion Institute. Now, I feel that my collection is the beginning of a wonderful museum collection." "I'd love to open the first American Fashion Museum, devoted solely to fashion and couture, similar to Zandra Rhodes' museum in London." Designers in my private collection include: 1,000's of Vera's + Hardcore Givenchy Jean Paul Gaultier. Designer labels in my private collection: Halston, Koos Van Dan Aker, Adria Gilbert, Betsey Johnson for Alley Cat, BEENE BAZAAR,Irene, Schiaparelli, Anna Sui, Todd Oldham, Mugler, Dolce, Montana, Diane Von, Kenzo, Balmain, Fath, Marc Jacobs, Raf Simons, Armani, 70's Anne and Calvin Klein, 60's-70's-80's Oscar De La Renta, Lilli Ann, Chanel, Dior, Nina Ricci "Couture", Pierre Cardin, Estevez, Stephen Burrows, Mori, Sonia Rykiel, Gaultier, Balenciaga, Yves Saint Laurent, Missoni, Emilio Pucci, Rudi Gernreich, Pauline Trigere, Missoni, Versace.
