By Shelby Comroe Verified| InStyle Verified Photo: Jeremy Moeller/Getty Images Wide leg pants may have replaced the skinny jean collection in your wardrobe, but that doesn't mean it's always obvious how to style them.

And while a seemingly endless list of designers have released their own versions of the shoe, one fashion house in particular stands a cut above the rest: Chanel. Chanel first introduced its now iconic ballet flat in 1984, but the design has been worn by women all over the world since at least the 1950s.
