Elle Fanning Tells the Story of Meeting Karl Lagerfeld

Hi, Elle Fanning!

Hello!

My goodness, you look like a dream and a vision.

Tell us about this look.

Thank you.

Well, technically, I am at the Cartier table tonight.

Woo! Yes!

This, I'm wearing a 1955 Grain de Cafe coffee bean necklace,

which is special.

It's this one that Grace Kelly wore in the royal portrait.

I don't think the exact, but it's from that time.

Let's say it's the exact.

You and Grace Kelly is everything.

And then Vivienne Westwood designed my outfit, Andreas.

And it's based on, I met Karl when I was 13,

and my first fashion show ever was 2011, fall,

Chanel haute couture, and after the show,

he selected me to be someone

to be in The Little Black Jacket book.

And from that, you know, that book,

he kind of styled everyone in the way that he saw them

and wanted to see them, and I was 13 and young,

and I had a little white dress on, and he kept my dress on,

and all he put on me was a daisy crown.

And so I'm like, This is how Karl wants me to look,

And here it is.

Fresh as a daisy. It's also almost bridal,

like Chanel bride?

Yes, yes! Come on.

Nothing better, right? Yes. Yes.

Wow.

What are you gonna do with these flowers later?

Can you leave those...

I'm gonna throw. Maybe you'll catch 'em.

[gasps] Oh! Oh! Oh!

Let's do it! [Elle laughs]

And you'll propose, right?

There you go.
