Coco avant Chanel

With a wish to be a fashioner, I fall in love with the movie simply by knowing its name, which somehow indicates it's a movie revolving around secrets of success in fashion field.

From this perspective, we see a common type of beauty who boosted own career by having emotional & physical tie with certain rich man.

Too much lucky elements inside... Consider one case -- The rich man would allow a poor girl stay in the best room of his house, not expelling or scolding her when she in strange "knight" clothes drives the horse to interrupt him in a decent meeting with other elites.

The movie made me 1. interested in horse-riding 2. more than ever interested in making clothes 3. more confident when others mock my aesthetic values.

    I don't like reading biographies more and more, as if it was intentional in the beginning. Almost did not experience too much misery, good aristocratic environment and lover. There's no doubt she's really beautiful in the end, and those clothes make her a queen.
