Coco Before Chanel
|
Anne Fontaine's 'Coco before Chanel' tells the rags to riches story of Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel, a girl who dared to be different and ended up becoming a symbol of wealth, success and style.
Gabrielle began life in an orphanage run by nuns, where she learnt needlework. After leaving the convent, she avoided becoming a seamstress and instead tried to flee the restrictions she was born with and began singing in a provincial bar, earning her the nickname Coco.
This bar is where she met Étienne Balsan, a rich Baron who was captivated by the headstrong, beautiful girl he saw. As Baron Balsan's lover, Coco was catapulted into French society and the attention she got helped her to develop her unique talent for flamboyant design. But when the Baron introduced her to the handsome Arthur Capel, a wealthy English businessman, the two start an affair that shatters society's conventions and threatens to ruin her!
