Audrey Tautou as Coco Chanel
Fashion is definitely experiencing a media burst. From television to the Internet (present!) to the silver screen, fashion is at everyone’s fingertips and eyeballs. And with the release of Coco Avant Chanel, we will learn about the early years of one of fashion’s female greats.
As the synopsis goes: “In an orphanage, silently standing next to a perfectly made bed, is a frail and slender ten year old girl with thick black hair. Gabrielle Chanel, known as Coco, and her many lives. The story of the path taken by Coco from her obscure beginnings to the blinding lights of Paris.” I’ve seen a Chanel film from the ’80s and recently saw a play so I’m excited to add this to my Chanel viewing repertoire. Oh, and jazzed to see Fabcon Audrey Tautou as Coco of course.
