J'adore Coco Before Chanel
in Chanel, Fashion History, Movies


I love Coco Before Chanel, the new film by Anne Fontaine. Audrey Tatou brings new life to this legendary heroine of modern fashion. How fascinating to witness her early years as she effortlessly rewrites her history to insure her future. Alessandro Nivola, as Boy Capel, the debonaire Englishman who sweeps Coco away to Deauville for her first glimpse of the sea, is the picture of "tall, dark and handsome". He steals her heart and bankrolls her empire. The climactic fashion show is a breathtaking couture lover's fantasy. The stunning tableau of the models descending the famous staircase at Rue Cambon with the smoking Coco perched atop is unforgettable. A must see.
