Chanel - η ιστορία της εμβληματικής σχεδιάστριας
Υπεύθυνη για μερικές από τις πιο ρηξικέλευθες τάσεις στη μόδα που γνώρισε ποτέ ο κόσμος -όπως το μικρό μαύρο φόρεμα, οι πέρλες και τα παπούτσια με τη δίχρωμη λεπτομέρεια στο μπροστινό μέρος-, η Κοκό Σανέλ έφερε επανάσταση στην εποχή της, δίνοντας στις γυναίκες αυτό που χρειάζονταν προτού καν εκείνες το συνειδητοποιήσουν.

Στον Ιβ Σεν Λοράν έχει αποδοθεί η ανάδειξη της υψηλής ραπτικής σε μορφή τέχνης, μετατρέποντας την επίδειξη μόδας σε θέαμα που κόβει την ανάσα και εκσυγχρονίζοντας την έννοια της γυναικείας ένδυσης με το κλασικό ανδρόγυνο στιλ του. Γεννημένος στην Αλγερία, η ανέλιξη του Σεν Λοράν από μαθητευόμενος στον χώρο της μόδας σε δεξί χέρι του ίδιου του Κριστιάν Ντιόρ ήταν ταχεία. Προχωρώντας στην ίδρυση του δικού του οίκου μόδας το 1961, ο Σεν Λοράν δημιούργησε το διάσημο κοστούμι Le Smoking και το φόρεμα Mondrian, έκανε το δερμάτινο τζάκετ κυρίαρχη...
