The story of this movie is actually very simple, with few characters, it is a story between a woman and two men. It can be regarded as a long gossip documentary by Ms. Chanel, of course the authenticity is questionable. To be honest, after watching this movie, I really don’t think COCO has struggled. Maybe she had a not very happy childhood, but after she met Mr. Basang and was taken care of by him, her life seemed to be smooth sailing, and she had no worries about food and clothing. At best, he has no status. He intermittently engages in affair with the handsome guy who looks like Zhang Zhen. When he has nothing to do, he rides a pony and makes clothes. Finally, he dumped the poor Mr. Basang and ran to Paris to start himself. Career. Such Ms. Chanel is worthy of learning for all juniors! Men can't rely on their lives, women have to rely on themselves!
Of course, loneliness is always revealed in COCO's eyes. She devotes her life to work, and perhaps only work can make her forget men.
Of course, the various iconic elements of Chanel that appeared from time to time in the plain plot made me want to scream again and again. Men and women wear, breeches, white shirts, sea soul shirts, black top hats, little black dresses, pearl necklaces, soft twills, etc., but the camellia only appeared once in the suit and dress of the handsome British guy.
TAUTOU's standard is as usual, I have to say that she is old and skinny, but she is surprisingly similar to Ms. Chanel, especially in her middle age. There are a few shots that are particularly beautiful. COCO is standing in the yard in white pajamas. The shots are taken from a high place, drawn far away. The sky and the sea meet, and only COCO is a little white in the green; the
second is that COCO is lying in a fallen leaf. Resting his head on the moss-covered tree roots, the lens is also drawn closer and closer from high to bottom.
Of course, the COCO wearing the sea soul shirt also surprised me, wondering if I have to buy one to wear it. And CHANEL, who wears a black suit with a cigarette in his mouth at work, is also amazing!
At the end of the film is the essence of the film, a fashion show that spans the ages and condenses COCO's life, condensing all the classic elements of CHANEL, and it is Chanel who is sitting on the stairs elegantly wearing a classic suit. She is no longer COCO but CHANEL.
Fortunately for Galeries Lafayette KARL, it still retains the original flavor of CHANEL, but what about the other brands? The bizarreness of DIOR, YSL and VALENTINO both gradually declined after the founders stepped down, and GIVENCHY was almost forgotten by the LVMH group. But BALENCIAGA was revived under the leadership of NICOLAS. French elegance seems to be getting away from us in this era.
And CHANEL also made me sigh that the fashion industry may still need more outstanding female designers. Phoebe Philo returned to the family after starting CHLOE, and CHLOE lacked the spirit of the year. Now Phoebe Philo is back in the arena and I think it is suitable to live in CELNE. Speaking of CELINE, the brand founded by Celine Vipiana has always been known for its elegance. Unfortunately, it has never met a good designer and has gradually declined. I wonder if the joining of PHOEBE can regain its glory. However, PRADA is becoming more and more prosperous in Miuccia's hands. And DONATELLA also excellently inherited the VERSACE spirit of his brother. STELLA MCTENNY is a bit lonely now, and its own brand has not improved, but the cooperation with PUMA is eye-catching. I have always felt that the works of these female designers mentioned above are simpler, more elegant, simple and generous, and clean. They put women's feelings first and pursue pragmatism from a female perspective. Male designers prefer to depict the goddess in their minds, so their clothes seem gorgeous, and women may be miserable when wearing them (such as ALEXANDER's donkey-toe shoes). But the strange thing is that today's fashion industry is still dominated by male designers. Is it true that men know women better than women?
In any case, CHANEL is a spiritual symbol. Independent, capable, talented, and rebellious. Women always need CHANEL to imitate and struggle, and they can also use CHANEL to show off to pretend to be beautiful. Men also need women wearing CHANEL to worship, pamper and show off~
Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence: We need CHANEL~~~ The
comments are written in a hurry, and the level is not good. Please forgive me for the shortcomings.
