The Style Exchange

Here’s the first official poster for the new Coco Chanel movie, “Coco: Before Chanel,” starring Audrey Tautou as Coco.  The film, directed by Anne Fontaine, is slated to be released sometime in 2009.  I had heard rumors of Kiera Knightly replacing Audrey in the lead role, so I was relieved to see that Ms. Tatou is featured in the poster.  According to Slash Film, the film will be a “story of the path taken by Coco from her obscure beginnings to the blinding lights of Paris.”  I’m looking forward this movie’s release, if only to see how the wardrobe will turn out!
