Win Coco Before Chanel on DVD


To celebrate the release of the most stylish film of the year Coco Before Chanel, out on DVD and Blu ray in the UK on 23 November, we have joined forces with Optimum Home Entertainment to give five lucky winners the chance to win a copy of the DVD!


Coco Before Chanel stars the gorgeous Audrey Tautou and is the story of Gabrielle Chanel, who begins her life as a headstrong orphan, and through an extraordinary journey becomes the legendary couturier who embodied the modern woman and became a timeless symbol of success, freedom and style.

Coco Before Chanel is directed by Anne Fontaine (The Girl From Monaco) from a screenplay she co-wrote with her sister Camille and with the collaboration of Christopher Hampton (Dangerous Liaisons).

For more information on the film please visit the official site: www.cocobeforechanel.co.uk/

For your chance of winning a copy of this stunning film just in time for Christmas just answer the following simple question:

Which European country was Coco Chanel from?
a) Germany
b) France
c) Spain

Send your answer to win@queensofvintage.com quoting ‘Coco’ in the subject line. The five lucky winners will be drawn at random at midday on Tuesday 24 November 2009. Because of DVD format issues, this competition is open to UK residents only. No alternative prize is available if unsuitable.

Good luck!

I love vintage magazines! I have a 1942 copy of Photoplay. It's in pretty bad condition but I got it for only a couple dollars. I want to buy more but they are always so expensive at vintage stores.
