Costuming Coco Chanel

Did you use outfits from the pics in the movie?
Was it difficult to imagine what Coco might have made?
In fashion, every designer has their own line, color and material codes. Chanel's is instantly recognizable. What Karl Lagerfeld did in adapting the Chanel style to the future, I did backwards towards the past. The Chanel style is distinctive in its cut, the supple hang of its fabric, and the perfect simplicity of its finish. The costumes had to be up to the exalting standards of haute couture.
