It was in the Rue Cambon where Coco Chanel opened her hat store, "Chanel Modes" in 1910. Coco quickly gained recognition for her talent as a couturier, so she decided to expand the business and opened, from 1918, a new store at number 31. In 1927, Chanel would eventually occupy up to five properties, from number 23 to 31 Rue Cambon.
