Chanel: Top commercials, emotional image films & Behind The Scenes

Chanel – a brand with a moving history that revolutionized the world of fashion and mannequins. Today, it is hard to imagine the fashion giant without it. Nowadays there are not only dresses, sparkling accessories and make-up from the luxury brand, but also perfumes. Especially Chanel No. 5 belongs in the bathroom cabinet of every fashion icon, or those who want to become one. What commercials and image films the luxury label has to offer and what crass storylines the creative minds always come up with can be seen here.

Coco Chanel, her fashion empire & the little black one

While the luxury brand today celebrates international success mainly through the ageless fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, it looks back on a rather modest hour of birth. Before today’s top models such as Cara Delivigne and Kendall Jenner ran the runways of the world in the labels’ latest collections, founder Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel had to struggle with a lack of enthusiasm at the beginning of her career. While the women’s fashion of the 1910s tended to consist of stiff pencil skirts and uncomfortable corsets, Coco Chanel, who came from a poor background, proposed an emancipated and functional fashion collection for women. Thus her first collection did not consist of pretty but far too tight bodice dresses and skirts, but of airy blouses, wide cut trousers and the now popular ‘little black’.

Classic feminine fashion and fine jewelry

The Chanel brand is known above all for its masterpieces, which are constantly being re-staged. Many old traditional cuts are combined with new modern colours and materials, such as the world-famous Chanel jacket. But also from the very beginning, Coco Chanel designed sparkling pieces of jewellery and thus adorned the fingers, wrists and necks of the upscale Parisian ladies of yesteryear. In her designs she paid attention to the play of light, so that the pieces appear different from every angle and create an exciting play of light and shadow.

Virginie Viard’s debut: stylish commercial with lots of emotions

Inspired by travel, the Cruise 2019/20 collection presents a silhouette in motion that is both strong and bursting with subtle softness. Comfort, functionality and simplicity form the basis for the appeal of CHANEL, embodied by Caroline de Maigret, Soo Joo Park, Amanda Sanchez, Ola Rudnicka and Tami Williams. One of the leading roles is the new creative director of the Chanel house, Virginie Viard. In her role she plays a hectic director who misses the train because of her delay. On the way to the track, hoping to catch the train, she is constantly being bumped into. In contrast there are still women, who are much more relaxed and who get their train. A film where the viewer has to form his own opinion about the situation and where there is no right or wrong.

However, the focus is not on the story or the clothes, but in the spot the new jewellery collection is presented. Light and discreet shapes and colours are shown to match the outfits and the setting.

Fruity perfumes and exciting storylines

With her numerous perfumes Chanel also celebrates success and this worldwide. The subtle but long-lasting unique fragrances have one thing in common: they all contain as their base note aromas of the famous Chanel Camelia flower. Built up with further delicate fragrances, each perfume is an art in itself. Years of research, the best quality of the flowers and fruit, and a craftsmanship of traditional perfume manufacturers. All this is united here. These are Chanel’s perfumes.

Exciting commercial ‘Coco Mademoiselle’ with Danila Kozlovski

The portrait of a woman with a unique and carefree style. The new film COCO MADEMOISELLE reveals Keira Knightley, full of mystery and fascination. With the colour scheme at the backdrop in achromatic colours, the focus is immediately directed to the characters. Exciting camera movements make the promotional video even more exciting and individual. As a high-contrast film cut, the same thing is shot again at a different location in the second part. With the difference that here we put on emotionally strong colors and that the camera movements are in slow motion and very detailed.

No matter if it’s preparations for the Fashion Week, the hectic rush in the backstage area just before the show starts or the making of the latest collections. There are also image films created by Karl Lagerfeld or films that tell the story of Coco or Chanel. With elaborate and emotional stylistic devices, short videos in blockbuster quality are created here.
