In 1924 Gabrielle Chanel launched the House’s first makeup products, marking the beginning of a century of creativity, excellence and innovation. 

Join author Natasha A Fraser in conversation with Business-of-Fashion Editor at Large, Tim Blanks on the launch of the first book dedicated to Chanel makeup, written and designed with unprecedented access to the Chanel archives. Together they will explore the fascinating story and talents behind the brand’s lasting impact across the decades, challenging and revitalising our concept of beauty.
