¿Quién salió con Coco Chanel?

Gabrielle Chanel,​ conocida como Coco Chanel (Saumur, Maine y Loira, 19 de agosto de 1883-París, 10 de enero de 1971),​ fue una diseñadora de alta costura francesa fundadora de la marca Chanel. Es la única diseñadora de moda que figura en la lista de las cien personas más influyentes del siglo XX de la revista Time.​

Es una de las diseñadoras más reconocidas de la historia. Destacó por ser una de las más innovadoras durante la Primera Guerra Mundial. Produjo una ruptura con la opulenta y poco práctica elegancia de la Belle Époque y creó una línea de ropa informal, sencilla y cómoda.​ Se consolidó también como diseñadora de bolsos, perfumes, sombreros y joyas. Su famoso traje sastre femenino de tweed ribeteado se convirtió en un icono de la elegancia femenina, y su perfume Chanel Nº5 es un icónico producto mundialmente conocido.

Criada en un orfanato de monjas, fue conocida por su firme determinación, ambición y vitalidad que aplicaba a su vida profesional y social. Alcanzó éxito como empresaria y prominencia social en la década de 1910 gracias a los contactos que le ofrecía su trabajo. Altamente competitiva, su personalidad oportunista la llevó a tomar decisiones cuestionables que generaron controversia y dañaron su reputación, especialmente su colaboración con la Gestapo durante la ocupación alemana de Francia en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Una de sus misiones a finales de 1943 era la de traer una oferta de paz de parte de las SS al primer ministro británico Winston Churchill con el objetivo de terminar la guerra.​

Tras la guerra, su vínculo amoroso con el oficial nazi Hans Günther von Dincklage y los rumores sobre su colaboración con los servicios de inteligencia alemanes (posteriormente confirmados por Hal Vaughan en 2011)​ afectaron seriamente a su compañía y su imagen, publicidad que la competencia se encargó de difundir.​ Sin embargo, no fue culpada como colaboradora y logró reabrir su empresa en 1954,​ tras lo cual obtuvo un renovado éxito, especialmente en Estados Unidos y el Reino Unido en un primer tiempo, hasta su muerte en 1971.

Hugh Richard Arthur Grosvenor, 2nd Duke of Westminster, (19 March 1879 – 19 July 1953), was a British landowner who supported Nazi ideology, and had an affair with French designer Coco Chanel.

Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich of Russia (Russian: Великий Князь Дмитрий Павлович; 18 September 1891 – 5 March 1942) was a son of Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich of Russia, a grandson of Tsar Alexander II of Russia and a first cousin of Tsar Nicholas II, Marie of Edinburgh (consort of Ferdinand I of Romania), King George II of Greece, King Alexander of Greece, Helen of Greece and Denmark, (second wife of Carol II of Romania), King Paul of Greece, and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (consort of Queen Elizabeth II).

His early life was marked by the death of his mother and his father's banishment from Russia after marrying a commoner in 1902. Grand Duke Dmitri and his elder sister Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna, to whom he remained very close throughout his life, were raised in Moscow by their paternal uncle Grand Duke Sergei Alexandrovich and his wife Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna of Russia, an older sister of Empress Alexandra Feodorovna. His uncle was killed in 1905 and as his aunt entered religious life, Dmitri spent a great deal of his youth in the company of Tsar Nicholas II and his immediate family at the Alexander Palace as they viewed him almost like a foster son.

Grand Duke Dmitri followed a military career, graduating from the Nicholas Cavalry College. He was commissioned as a cornet in the Horse Guards Regiment. An excellent equestrian, he competed in the Olympic Games of 1912 in Stockholm. As a grandson of Tsar Alexander II in the male line, he occupied a prominent position as the Russian imperial court, but he had little interest in his military career, leading instead a fast life. Through his friendship with Felix Yusupov, he took part in the assassination of the mystic Grigori Rasputin, who was seen to have an undue and insidious influence on the Tsar and his wife.

Banished to the war front in Persia, he escaped the Russian Revolution and emigrated to Western Europe. He lived briefly in England, and during the 1920s in Paris, where he had a brief but notorious affair with the famous French fashion designer Coco Chanel. He also lived briefly in the United States. In 1926, he married Audrey Emery, an American heiress. The couple had a son before divorcing in 1937.

As the youngest Grand Duke to have survived the Russian Revolution, he was a prominent figure in the Russian community in exile, but he was not interested in politics, supporting instead the claim of his first cousin, Grand Duke Kirill Vladimirovich of Russia. By the outbreak of World War II, his health was already in decline, and he died of tuberculosis in Davos, Switzerland aged 50.
