Full description

Behind the Chanel brand—its glamour, its muses, and the worldwide success of the maison—lies a mystery: Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel. An elusive woman who constantly reinvented her life as she designed her dresses—adding, removing, transforming. Who is this secretive figure at the helm of the greatest empire ever built by a woman? What secrets lie behind this ultimate fashion icon?

A Coco Chanel caught in the grip of doubt welcomes you: will Gabrielle disappear behind the brilliance of the Chanel empire? All her life, Gabrielle Chanel fought to become someone, having been born as no one. Will history remember the Chanel brand rather than the woman herself? From the hushed salons of the Ritz to the ateliers on Rue Cambon, Mademoiselle Chanel opens the doors to her universe: her creative genius, her triumphs, but also her flaws and shadows. Gabrielle Chanel was a being of chiaroscuro, as much black as white, just like her creations.
