WHITE VENGNCE

For Chanel, the location has special significance: It served as the backdrop for the 1960 film “Testament of Orpheus,” directed by Jean Cocteau, who was a friend of founder Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel. In a punk statement uniting CHANEL past and present, a fluid top in ivory crepe georgette is adorned with baroque jewels, inspired by a costume by Gabrielle Chanel for a play by Jean Cocteau
