Shirley Does Chanel
Shirley MacLaine is currently in Paris filming a biopic about Coco Chanel, according to an article in the LAT, which further Googling reveals to be a Lifetime mini-series.
Best part of the article was this quote by Mademoiselle Chanel:
“Fashion has become a joke. The designers have forgotten that there are women inside the dresses. Most women dress for men and want to be admired. But they must also be able to move, to get into a car without bursting their seams! Clothes must have a natural shape.”

I was concerned when I heard MacLaine was playing Chanel. Now, I can see it. I just hope she doesn’t do a bad French accent.
One of my favorite Chanel quotes:Elegance is not the prerogative of those who have just escaped from adolescence, but of those who have already taken possession of their future.
