Before Chanel, There Was Coco

Talk about reaching the pinnacle of your life, career, and of the entire fashion world. At least two movies have been or are being made about the legendary Coco Chanel. Where would the fashion world be without this glamorous woman?

One of the three projects is a two part miniseries on Lifetime starring Shirley MacLaine. It follows both Coco as a young woman and after she became successful as an older woman. Okay, I know it's Lifetime. But, it's also Coco Chanel! Coco Chanel will premiere on September 13.


And now, the movie we are all anxiously awaiting: Audrey Tautou, the beautiful lead in The Da Vinci Code and Amelie, will play Coco as a young woman. Movie critics, goers, and fashionistas alike are all desperately waiting for this French film to come out. It will follow Coco as a young woman before she became famous. Anne Fontaine is directing Coco avant Chanel, which is already filming.

How excited are we about Coco avant Chanel? Well, we think we might just have to learn French perfectly and fly to France to watch the movie where Coco originally made her mark on the fashion world.
