Hedi at Chanel? I don’t know..

I imagine he’d be great at designing separates, and accessories, that’d do well at retail, but I just don’t see him as a particularly accomplished dressmaker, which I’d think would be a requirement for a brand like Chanel. He’s no Alber in that sense.

But at the very least, I can see Hedi taking the initiative to ensure that the clothes actually FIT properly on the model, which Virginia definitely failed at.
