“My biggest role models are not chefs, but women like Coco Chanel, Simo...” — Dominique Crenn Quote

“My biggest role models are not chefs, but women like Coco Chanel, Simone de Beauvoir, Nina Simone.”

“What I want to tell people is, you have to believe your gut. You have to find answers from what your gut is telling you. I always work with intuition.”

“I want people to ask me how I feel about the world, or what is my day about, and ask me a question that's not just related to food, but that's related to me being a person: Someone that's vulnerable, someone that has ideas and someone that wants to learn more.”

“Chanel has always really truly empowered women.”

“Chanel No. 5 is my perfume when I'm feeling like a lady. It's old-school and warm - and it reminds me of my mom.”

“I remember the feeling of a tweed Chanel jacket because my mom used to wear one to work.”
