    • Abstract:
      The New Look is a fictionalized series that explores the lives of Christian Dior and Coco Chanel during Nazi-occupied Paris. The show delves into their choices to collaborate or resist the Nazis, as well as the moral gray areas they navigate. It also examines Chanel's alleged collaboration with the Nazis and her use of those connections for personal gain. The series aims to humanize the characters without prescribing viewers' feelings towards them. The show had access to Dior's archives to recreate specific looks, while Chanel's involvement is not mentioned. [Extracted from the article]
