This book reveals the unknown story of one of the most famous French women in the world. It tells about Gabrielle Chanel's connections with Russia and her Russian environment. About Russian friends, associates, colleagues who had a huge influence on Chanel's work in different years and on her fate as a whole.

Together with Elena Getman, you will learn where Chanel's Russian trail comes from, what she learned from the Russians and what she owes to them. How friendship with the Russian impresario Sergei Diaghilev, composer Igor Stravinsky, dancers Sergei Lifar and Olga Khokhlova helped combine French elegance with Russian traditions in her works, thereby giving rise to new fashion trends. And an affair with the Great Russian Prince Romanov gave the world the most iconic inventions of the Chanel brand.

Rare photos, Chanel's aphorisms about herself, Russia, style, people and life will help you to become even more imbued with the philosophy of the great Mademoiselle and her reverent attitude towards Russian culture.
