The Chanel woman is slender, sophisticated and chic.

The Chanel woman? I don't even need to see; I smell her from round the corner.

Chanel has always been this big thing for me - there are baby pictures of me wearing my mom's Chanel pumps.

I don't want to be known as the black model. I want to be recognized as Chanel Iman, a personality.

Chanel is everywhere. Pick up a magazine. You'll find Chanel all over it. That's the imprint that she had. I mean, she did so much.

When I dress up for events, I prefer Marc Jacobs and Dior. But I dream about wearing Chanel one day.

I wish to present myself in front of the camera, each time under the features of a different woman. I would like to live and apprehend the problems, the conflicts, the feelings and the impulses of women radically different from me.

A woman should be an illusion.

If I ruled the world, every woman would have a Chanel suit in her wardrobe.

I seek to cast an incorruptible gaze on women, especially where they are the accomplices of men.
