Audrey Tautou

Audrey Tautou style, trends, fashion and news.

December 24, 2009

Want to know who to keep your eye on as far as style goes? Vogue has just announced their list of the best dressed women of 2009, and you may be surprised by this year’s winner!

Many of the women were expected to make the list, like Emma Watson, Diane Kruger, and Leighton Meester. But it seems the mag took a few risks this year, and included some women known for their outlandish wardrobes. Case in point? Lady Gaga and British singer Beth Ditto.

Our very own First Lady made the list at number 14. And we couldn’t agree more with that choice. Her gowns throughout the year have all been stunning and timeless.

But the big winner this year was Alexa Chung! She’s known best for her now-canceled program on MTV, called It’s On With Alexa Chung.

Alexa won the top prize for her “schoolgirl meets grandma” chic and “Brit-girl abroad sense of style.”

Judges at Vogue say, “She won over the U.S. style pundits with her quirky style and kept us on side by staying true to the formula that won her our approval in the first place.”

Here are the top five best-dressed women:

1. Alexa Chung
2. Audrey Tautou
3. Sarah Jessica Parker
4. Cheryl Cole
5. Dannii Minogue

Audrey Tautou Stars in New Chanel No. 5 Commercial

May 6, 2009

As Hollyscoop previously reported, Audrey Tautou is the new face of Chanel No. 5. And to commemorate the new crowning, the brand has shot a commercial starring their new muse. Or should we say short film??

The spot is beautifully shot on a train alongside the French countryside, on which Audrey is a passenger who keeps running into the same mysteriously beautiful man, played by Rodrigo Santoro.

The short film was directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet, who worked with Tautou on Amelie. Filmed in a railway station in Nice and on the Bosphorus in Istanbul, it was inspired by a scene in the Oscar-nominated film A Very Long Engagement.

Tatou, who plays the title role of Coco Chanel in Anne Fontaine's new film Coco avant Chanel, said of her appointment to the luxury fashion house: "It hasn't really sunk in yet. The fact that the film has been directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet, the fact that it is Chanel No.5, which for me is a legend in itself. Even now, I find it hard to believe."

Chanel Replaces Nicole Kidman

May 6, 2008

Out with the old, and in with the new. The fresh face of Chanel No. 5 perfume is no longer Nicole Kidman. They've handed the job over to French actress Audrey Tatou.

She's best known for her performance in Amelie, and Chanel has teamed up with the director of that film Jean-Pierre Jeunet to direct her 2009 commercial debut.

We loved that movie, and hope Audrey's Chanel commercials are as good as Nicole's!
