The first and only still shot released from the filming of the Coco Chanel movie : Coco Avant Chanel starring Audrey Tautou was released last week. It shows a rather stern looking Tautou – much like the original Coco herself. The film is being shot in Paris and Normandy, and will feature iconic Chanel dresses. Catherine Leterrier is designing the costumes with Karl Lagerfeld’s oversight.

Bad news, dear Audrey fans: it looks like we won’t be seeing Audrey as Coco Chanel before spring 2009!We will keep you updated…
