Editor's Brand Style In this paragraph, whether it is a jersey suit with strong masculine elements, a two-piece tweed suit, artificial jewelry with worn-out values, camellia totem with strong feminist color, or chanel no.5, Marilyn Monroe's only dress in bed, Chanel has repeatedly challenged the new fashion created by the old system. The most special thing about Ms Chanel is that she is pragmatic and beautiful. She draws inspiration from the living environment, especially love. Different from other designers who ask others to cooperate with their designs, Chanel provides freedom and choice with liberation significance, transforming fashion design from a trend dominated by men's views to an independent stage to express women's aesthetic feeling. Abandon tight waist and whale bone skirt hoop, and advocate shoulder bag and fabric suit; Coco chanel dominated women's style, posture and lifestyle in the first half of the 20th century, a simple and comfortable new luxury philosophy, as she said before her death: "The opposite of gorgeous is not poverty, but vulgarity". 197 1 year 1 month, coco chanel died at the age of 88. Karl lagerfeld, the current chief designer of Chanel, is at the helm 1986. He has interpreted the meticulous, luxurious and eternal Chanel spirit in a brand-new way.

"Chanel represents a style, a unique style that lasts for a long time." Ms. Chanel described her design in this way, instead of thinking about what to do next, she asked herself how to express it next, so that the commotion would never stop.

Edit this paragraph of brand reform warranty: nasal training has a good core competitive point for excellent quality products, and it needs the support of quality to promote product sales for a long time. Mrs Chanel certainly knows this-Marilyn Monroe, a famous American sexy movie star in the 20th century, once said when revealing the secret of her unique sexy charm, "I only use chanel no.5 at night". A seemingly ordinary sentence shows the exquisite modulation technique and unique mood of Chanel perfume, which is also the uniqueness that Mrs. Chanel supported with practical actions while looking for the uniqueness of the product, thus promoting the successful marketing and healthy growth of chanel no.5 perfume. In Chanel company, all perfumes are not prepared step by step according to the production procedures, but the nerves of smell, vision, touch, hearing and taste of perfume preparers are fully mobilized, and the products are felt and experienced with body, mind and spirit, and the products are created with all their minds. It can be directly said that chanel no.5 perfume is made by a perfumer with his own nose, thus ensuring that chanel no.5 perfume not only conforms to people's olfactory habits, but also has a unique taste and emotional appeal. As Mrs. Chanel herself described it: "This is what I want. A completely different perfume; A woman's perfume; A fragrant and unforgettable perfume. " 1986, Jacques Polge, a perfumer with Chanel's nickname "nose", created chanel no.5 eau de toilette, reinterpreting the elegant feminine beauty in a new way. Lively lemon fruit and vanilla give eau de toilette a sweet and pleasant surprise atmosphere. In addition, Jacques Pollge, who produces perfume for Chanel, has always insisted on its unique ingredients: using jasmine flowers and May roses from Grasse. This also laid a solid foundation for the unique high quality and rich fragrance of Chanel perfume. Bottle-shaped breakthrough: Entering the hearts of ladies and gentlemen, there is an increasing demand for consumer goods. Besides the basic things such as function, quality and capacity, color, packaging and bottle shape are also playing an increasingly important role in promoting sales.

Mrs Chanel thinks that it is not perfect, and needs to upgrade chanel no.5 perfume on the bottle shape again, so that it is completely independent of the high-end perfume forest and emits its own strong dazzling and unruly light. Based on the concept of overall image, Mrs. Chanel believes that perfume is the last important step in women's overall dress. Therefore, even though only a perfume family would launch perfume at that time, Mrs. Chanel, a fashion designer, decided to insist on launching Chanel brand perfume, and she had obvious talent and excellent opinions on bottle design: "My aesthetic view is different from others: others are afraid of adding, but I reduce one by one." It is precisely for this reason that the simple shape design of chanel no.5 perfume bottle is the most peculiar one in the perfume works of the same period, because among all perfume bottles with extremely complicated and colorful functions, only chanel no.5 perfume is like a bare bottle. However, this simplicity has formed a new aesthetic force and successfully entered the elegant hearts of ladies and gentlemen. Finally, they don't have to indulge in flashy wealth, but can find valuable texture in simple and powerful design. The bottle cap of chanel no.5 perfume bottle is cut with precious stones, the square body of transparent crystal has neat lines, and the black fonts of "Chanel" and "NO5" appear on the white background, which is impressive. However, at that time, many people were not optimistic about this perfume that looked like a medicine jar. Even some fashion experts who have seen chanel no.5 perfume believe that Mrs Chanel's reputation will be destroyed in this "humble" bottle. As a result, they didn't expect that this bottle of perfume, which they didn't like at first, was more popular than their life span. For this reason, chanel no.5 perfume bottle was selected as an outstanding contemporary art work in 1959, which ranks among the exhibits of new york Museum of Modern Art ... This is an aesthetic pursuit and an important part of marketing differentiation-only by boldly innovating and stepping out of its own new way can brands and products get better development. Advertising communication: amazing vision is always elegant and unique. Advertising is an important carrier to establish brand image and promote product sales. Any company will pay attention to advertising communication and advertise more or less. However, advertising has a problem of good or bad effect, which is ultimately reflected in the advantages and disadvantages of advertising, such as the degree of effect of advertising design, the appropriate choice of advertising media, the number and period of advertising and so on. Only comprehensive and balanced, the advertising communication effect will run well. The advertising communication of perfume in chanel no.5 is a model in this respect. For example, in terms of advertising design effect, the advertisement of chanel no.5 perfume has amazing visual performance on the one hand, such as a huge "5" standing on a solid color background such as black and red, and a gourmet beauty standing in the center. Chanel no.5 perfume has flown from the hands of beautiful women, and the perfume is romantically floating in the air, giving people a sense of beauty and strong visual sense. On the other hand, it is closely combined with its brand connotation, conveying a noble and elegant. Let consumers enjoy it, at the same time, they can enjoy it-such design expression and advertising appeal undoubtedly combine what chanel no.5 perfume brand wants to tell and convey to the target consumers. A good design work, if put in improperly, is equivalent to hitting Shui Piao.

In terms of the number and period of advertisements, chanel no.5 Perfume is targeted in a planned way, and its coverage may not be particularly wide, but it insists on timely advertisements. Terminal construction: local terminal sales are concentrated in the gathering of rich and famous people, which is the final stage of transforming brands, products and all efforts into value. Good terminal construction is helpful for product display and sales. Chanel No.5 perfume attaches great importance to terminal construction, and its selection is more rigorous and accurate. In order to better locate and attract target consumers and promote the overall mass sales of chanel no.5 perfume, terminal counters and specialty stores are specially set up in high-end department stores, five-star hotels, high-end clubs and other places where rich and famous people gather, but it is difficult to find the fragrance of chanel no.5 in general places. Why are you doing this? Because chanel no.5 perfume is determined and selected around the brand positioning and the core value of the brand to be conveyed. In fact, taking the brand as the center and taking the road of characteristic terminal construction suitable for its own development can reduce the blind exploration of enterprises or brands and promote the rapid development of enterprises, just like chanel no.5 perfume.
