Let me talk about my personal feelings towards Ms. Chanel first. I've been in awe of this woman since I was 14. Yes, in awe. Every time I read her story and see what she said, I always feel a lot of emotion in my heart. I feel that this is a woman that only women can understand, but men will never understand. But let's talk about this below. In fact, I am more grateful to her. From the time I was 14 years old, to the 7 years now, several designers and brands have captured my heart: Marc Jacobs and his LV, Valentino Garavani, Christopher Bailey and his Burberry...too many. But Chanel always has a special place in my heart. No matter how gorgeous the luxury brands are, Chanel will always be the most particular, the most arrogant and the most outstanding: the bag has the most exquisite dust bag, the best service, no discounts or promotions... Not to mention its design itself, I want to be able to Women who resist the temptation of Chanel tweed, bows and camellias are not real women... I have a completely different mood and aura when I carry myself when LV and Prada are out on the street and when I go out with 2.55. Only when 2.55 is on my shoulders will I feel that something is different today, and that I am the most confident, comfortable, personal, and authentic me. Men don't understand, but women who own Chanel do.
Back to movies. Most of this movie is very bland, but it is about Chanel having a rich lover and using him to have another rich lover. But at that time, the young Miss Coco had outstanding dress taste. It can be said that she is destined for fashion. Chanel never married and insisted that others call her "Ms." instead of "Ms.", which I have read in many books and materials. But it's still heartbreaking to actually hear this line from the love of her life, Arthur Boy Capel, when she says: "I knew I wasn't going to be anyone's wife. Not yours. It's just that sometimes I I forgot for a while." This powerful and soft woman.
Later, the "only man she fell in love with in her life" died in a car accident. As a mistress, Chanel couldn't even go to the funeral and had to kneel in front of the wreckage of the car and cry. But wiping away her tears, she actually clenched her fist and said, "I swear, I will make all women in the world wear black for you!" This is the birth of the famous LBD in the history of fashion - the little black dress. What kind of woman is this! She loves with all her might, but calmly doesn't let it hold her back, and turns her into the power of life. No wonder Chanel said that there is no word "unsuccessful" in his dictionary. Also as the ending shows, her talent finally blossomed. But somehow, in that last scene, the sense of sadness surrounded by the flashy embrace made me almost cry.
When watching this movie, I always think of Edith Piaf, the chanson legend. The experiences of the two women are quite similar: not only are they both French-born and talented women, but Piaf's lover, the boxer Marcel Cerdan, also died young in a plane crash. But since then, their respective unfoldings have been very different: Ms. Chanel built her own fashion kingdom step by step, and eventually became a great woman who influenced the history of the 20th century; while the hard-hit Piaf became vulnerable, alcoholic and narcotics destroyed her until the end of her life.
There is no doubt that Chanel is the stronger woman at heart, but I have always felt that she is the more distressed one. This woman who does not allow herself to be weak, does not allow herself to degenerate, and does not allow herself to become a man's appendage. It is easy to think about love but not lost in men, but it is extremely difficult to do. Such a woman she said: "I was never a heroine. But I chose to be who I wanted to be, and I am now. What if I wasn't loved and liked." Yeah, again No matter what, she is still a wonderful woman with peerless youth and uniqueness, which has been passed down for hundreds of years.
Ms. Chanel said, "I'm neither smart nor stupid, but I don't think I'm an ordinary person." She was right.
