behind the scenes at one of the world's leading fashion
houses and see a collection in the making.
Filmmaker Loic Prigent's fascinating, witty and infectiously
joyous look within a leading fashion house focuses on the
evolution of Chanel's Fall/Winter 2004-2005 collection. From
Karl Lagerfeld's initial sketches and their first
interpretation by veteran seamstresses to the climactic show
as the models strut the catwalk, Signe Chanel presents a
loving depiction of an enclosed, esoteric world.

cutting, sewing, and finishing. Learn how to identify your
audience with a variety of marketing tools. Determine how to
create well defined concepts, build balanced teams, and
establish comprehensive environments through fashion show
production. Discuss branding concepts, marketing, and
