She Never Got Married
Coco Chanel might have dated and had affairs with plenty of men** but she never got married. Maybe she thought it would take away from her dedication to the fashion world. "Coco Chanel is my heroine, because she was able to attract lovers with ease and even nonchalance. I don’t think that she had a bond with any of her lovers that was durable enough to make it into the canon of fashion lore. At one time, however, she conducted her entire business out of a lover’s flat. I like to think that she fell freely into this arrangement, but refrained from committing more to it than was actually reasonable."
