Event Details

About the Fashion: An already-successful Coco Chanel agreed to design costumes for Samuel Goldwyn’s leading ladies at United Artists in the 1930s, but abandoned that effort after working on only three films. She made a triumphant return to cinema with her work on LAST YEAR AT MARIENBAD. Chanel had total control over the timeless ensembles worn by Seyrig, from sophisticated black dresses that demand the viewer’s focus in the film’s monochrome palette to dreamy chiffon and feathered gowns, seeing her creations on a big screen is a sight to behold.
