"I called Chanel, with whom I had worked before, and I showed them the script. They were delighted to be able to work on this project because they wanted their clothes to be worn by young women. As a result, they were very cooperative. Which was great, because when I met Annie (Anne Hathaway, nldr), I knew right away that it was a "Chanel girl", in opposition, let's say, to a "Versace girl". The association worked well. "
