"Mademoiselle Chanel in the Atelier, 1962" Ed. 9/24 signed by Douglas Kirkland Hand signed by Douglas Kirkland Medium: archival pigment print on Hahnemühle watercolor paper Comes in white frame as shown in photos Mademoiselle Chanel in the Atelier, in the mirror reflection are Jean, her right-hand "dresser" and model Jackie Rogers, House of Chanel, rue Cambon, Paris Photographer Douglas Kirkland (1934-2022) captured a series of iconic photographs of Coco Chanel in 1962, including one titled "Mademoiselle Chanel in the Atelier". In this image, taken at the House of Chanel on rue Cambon in Paris, Chanel is depicted in her atelier. The reflection in the mirror reveals two other individuals: Jean, who was Chanel's right-hand "dresser" or fitter, and the American model and actress Jackie Rogers. Rogers was a significant figure in Chanel's world during this time, serving as one of her top models. She was known for her broad shoulders, making her an ideal choice for showcasing Chanel's designs through draping. Chanel hired Rogers for a substantial sum of $700 per week. Rogers would later become a notable fashion designer herself, launching her own successful brand. She was known for her bold personality and direct manner.
