10 Greatest Films For Fashion Lovers
7. Coco Before Chanel
This biographical account of the late fashion designers life is beautifully shot and has some absolutely heartbreaking scenes. For those that don't know the entire story of Chanel's life, this film is a brilliant way of learning about all the struggles and hardships she encountered in her early years before climbing to the top and becoming one of the most recognisable names in the industry.
An honest look at every aspect of the designers personal life, the film holds nothing back and show her, at times, in an unfavourable light. Featuring some outstanding acting performances from AudreyTautou, we get to view all the complexities of the person who Chanel was.
The film is in French and subtitled in English, so not necessarily easy, chilled out viewing, but it's perfect if you want to feel a bit more cultured, get to know more about the designers background, and the classic Chanel clothing featured is beyond beautiful and totally worth it.
