In 1953 Paris, legendary fashion designer Coco Chanel, now in her seventies, attempts a dramatic comeback after fifteen years of retirement. Facing skepticism from the fashion press, resistance from younger designers, and the changing tastes of a new era, Coco stakes everything on a single make-or-break collection, battling personal demons and professional rivals to prove she still has the vision to define how women dress.
