The Allure Of Chanel

Coco Chanel invited Paul Morand to write her memoirs; his notes of their conversations were put away in a drawer and only came to light one year after Chanel’s death. Through Morand Chanel tells us about her friendship with Misia Sert, the men in her life—Boy Capel, the Duke of Westminster, artists such as Diaghilev, her philosophy of fashion and the story behind the legendary Nº 5 perfume.
