A new film focussing on the early life of legendary designer Coco Chanel, and starring Audrey Tautou, is due to hit a cinema screen near you next year. Tautou will play a young Coco in ‘Coco Avant Chanel’, before she revolutionised modern women’s clothing and her incredible international fame and fortune came calling. Speaking about her role, Tautou (who has in a twist of fate also just been appointed as the new face of Chanel’s best-selling fragrance, No.5) said, “It gave me the freedom to be between the image of what people think about her but also before her success.”
