Karl Lagerfeld's Directing Debut

Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld has stepped into the world of film, with first effort, "The Tale of a Fairy."

The 25-minute flick, written and directed by Lagerfeld, is a homage to his very VIP customers.

He tells the Associated Press, "In the movie, they wear dresses from the (annual Chanel Cruise) collection, so it's kind of a narrative around the kind of women who buy these clothes."

The majority of "The Tale of a Fairy" was shot in black and white film at a mansion along the French Riviera.

"Fairy" premiered at Chanel's 2011-2012 Cruise show yesterday (May 9) but fashionistas everywhere can watch the film online here.
