Mademoiselle chanel novel5/13/2023 He studied fashion design in school, but quickly realized that sewing and pattern-making would never be his passion, so after graduating he worked as a retail buyer and freelance publicist and fashion show coordinator. Gortner began by introducing himself and describing his career path. He drew a good crowd, too – we had a full house and even ran out of chairs as latecomers trickled in. So fast forward a few weeks and BAM, Gortner is in the Village House. I’d seen Gortner several years back when he was promoting The Last Queen so I knew he was an entertaining guy, and if he was gossiping about one of the world’s most influential fashion designers it could only be amazing. They were game, so I sent out some e-mails and pretty soon we had Gortner on the calendar for a talk and signing. Gortner was coming out with a new book about Coco Chanel, I asked the owners if I could try to set up a book signing. One of the cool things about working in a bookstore is that if you get lucky, you can bring one of your favorite authors to the store.
