Whims and accessories in a sailor style

Chanel was not the first to wear the striped jersey of the French Navy uniform, but upon her arrival in Deauville in 1913 she knew how to recognize in her an ally in freeing women from the constraints of the belle époque. Later would come the interpretations of Gaultier, Westwood or Thom Browne. Tommy Hilfiger even used the international code of signals to create a logo that everyone would understand. And firms like Prada and its Luna Rossa (Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Team) or Louis Vuitton, giving its name to the knockout phase of the America's Cup between 1983 and 2007, have jumped directly into the sea.
