Deauville et Coco Chanel

In 1912, Deauville was an epicenter of ambition and elegance. Parisian high society came to dazzle, see and be seen, indifferent to the geopolitical tensions that would soon break out the Great War. With her, a certain Gabrielle Chanel, 29, a talented milliner. Gabrielle is not yet a personality, but her style is already surprising. A sophisticated style because simple, rich because poor. A style that will soon become emblematic.
