Chanel


I have been this week at the home of 'Tiny"(madame Labrunie) she is the grandniece of Gabrielle Chanel (Coco) she was nicknamed when she was born, Mlle Chanel said "Oh she's Tiny" her father was the nephew of Mlle Chanel, as his mother(Coco Chanel sister) died when he was quite young Mlle Chanel brought him up like her son. Tiny has so many stories and memorabilia that are amazing from her auntie.
I am working on a book for Flammarion about the intimate life Of Mlle Chanel, its looking really beautiful so far.
