Last week Coco Chanel
Bags German fashion magazine Brigitte announced plans to ban professional
models from its pages. The move was taken in an attempt to address the size zero
debate and has received a mixed response. This weekend Karl Lagerfeld added his
two cents to the debate.Speaking to German online magazine Focus, Karl
controversially commented. “No one wants to see curvy women. You've got fat
mothers with their bags of chips sitting in front of the television and saying
that thin models are ugly.” He went on to explain that the world of fashion was
about “dreams and illusions”.
The New Chanel Movie. After much talk and preproduction hell, the Coco
Chanel Bags biopic, Coco Avant Chanel (Coco Before Chanel), is finally
slated to begin filming. Unlike the Lifetime biopic on Coco, the Warner Bros.
film painstakingly recreates Chanel's life. French gamine Audrey Tautou was cast
last year to play the young designer, and she'll be clothed in costumes from the
Chanel archive. Even Kaiser Karl Lagerfeld is set to supervise the recreation of
key Coco pieces worn by the designer herself. The film will start a 12-week
shoot on September 15 in Paris, aiming for a 2009 release. Possibly a lock on
the best costume Oscar.
