Chanel Through the Eyes of Karl Lagerfeld
The short film series 'Inside Chanel' (http://inside.chanel.com/) has previously unfolded four stories centered on keywords such as the iconic fragrance 'N°5,' diamonds, and the innovative 'jacket.'
The newly released five films feature chapters on Chanel's life: Chapter 5 'Coco,' Chapter 6 'Mademoiselle,' and Chapter 7 'Gabrielle Chanel.' They chronicle Chanel's journey from an orphaned child to an uninhibited woman, her encounters and partings with her beloved Boy Capel and the Duke of Westminster, who influenced her style, and her revolutionary creations that transformed women's fashion, all presented with dynamic visuals.

Furthermore, in the latter half, Chapter 8 'Coco by Karl Lagerfeld' and Chapter 9 'Chanel by Karl Lagerfeld,' Lagerfeld discusses the traces left by Gabrielle Chanel, her charisma, her life, and the intrinsic elegance of the Chanel brand. He also touches upon the spirit and attitude that form the legacy of Chanel's creations.
