The Mademoiselle Collection from Christopher Guy is an imagination of how Coco Chanel would live in current times as a 37-year-old woman. With oodles of Parisian charm, this flirtatious line includes 40 new pieces of furniture and accessories. The series consists of the curvy Coco Chair, the hand-carved Debussy Cabinet; a bergere-style Cambon Bed, and the reverse camel-backed Bardot Sofa.
