Kristen Stewart Plays Coco Chanel in Dramatic 'Gabrielle' Campaign Film
Complete with shattering chandeliers and heavy breathing.
In the new campaign film for Chanel's upcoming "Gabrielle" handbag, Kristen Stewart takes on the brand's iconic founder Coco Chanel and goes on an emotional journey throughout a big, empty warehouse.

The film is directed by Daniel Askill, and sees Stewart--still with her hair--running around and turning off light bulbs, before spotting a beautiful Chanel bag and freaking the fuck out. Naturally, a chandelier falls and shatters dramatically. Even more naturally, Stewart sees the word "Gabrielle" written on a window and starts breathing rather intensely.
Stewart's video will be the first in a series of films coming out this month each week, with others featuring Chanel's collection of handbag ambassadors, including Cara DeLevingne, Caroline de Maigret, and Pharrell, the first man to front a Chanel bag campaign.
