The outspoken Keira Knightley is the new face of Coco Mademoiselle perfume by Chanel. Chanel went all out for this campaign, shooting a mini-movie called “Coco Mademoiselle” which stars Keira as a modern version of Coco Chanel herself. She is supposed to be mysterious, independent and strong.
The campaign was inspired by the apartment of Coco Chanel. The website’s winning conceit is to take the viewer on a tour of its sumptuous rooms, moving from salon to salon, stopping along the way to zoom in on odd details that give clues to the unique sensibility of the iconic designer – baroque mirrors, precious “objets” and gilded “tchotchkes” at every turn.

His last book was published in 1998 and chances to have another one are slim. Serge Lutens was a talented fashion photographer and later became a fragrances genius. He started to experiment with makeup and photography, using his friends to pose as models. In 1962 he moved to Paris. After seeing his work, Vogue hired him to create makeup, hair and jewelry. Throughout the sixties he collaborated with great photographers such as Richard Avedon, Bob Richardson and Irving Penn. In 1967, Christian Dior commissioned him to create a makeup line which Vogue USA called “ A revolution in makeup.” Serge Lutens has a influence of geisha traditions in his work as a make-up artist. His book is just beautiful.
