Talented, smart and sexy, French actress Marion Cotillard epitomises Parisian style, and all its glamour and elegance. A woman of passion—with an enthusiasm for acting, a fire for the environment and humanity, and a fierce devotion to her family—her red-carpet choices, many of which are dramatic monochromatic gowns that often send her waltzing onto Best Dressed lists, cleverly show a love for dressing up. In this month’s cover spread, the face of the Chanel N°5 fragrance opted for black-and-white designs that look right at home in a chic pied-à-terre, cementing her place as a Gallic style leader.
